In simple English
This tool creates whiteboard animation videos from a simple text prompt. You type a topic, and it researches the subject, writes a script, generates custom artwork, and adds voice narration and subtitles. It runs automatically using AI agents to stitch every scene together. You need a Google Gemini API key to run it. It saves you days of manual video editing work.
What it is
An agentic Python pipeline that automates the end-to-end creation of narrated whiteboard videos. It uses multiple AI models to handle everything from web research and scriptwriting to image generation and voice synthesis.
What it is good for
Solo creators and educators who want to produce engaging whiteboard explainer videos without learning professional animation software or hiring voice actors.
- Generates complete videos from a single text prompt.
- Supports multiple languages for scripts and voiceovers.
- Can run without extra setup using just a Gemini API key.
- Requires comfort with the command line and Python environments.
- Heavy use of video and image generation models will consume paid API credits.
- Optional advanced segmentation requires hosting a separate server with GPU access.
