Start With Whatever You Have

Got an idea? An outline? A full script? All of it works.

Atlabs meets you wherever you are. You don’t need a finished script to begin - a simple idea for your explainer is enough.

Rough Idea

Just a thought or concept

Type a few sentences about the topic you want to explain. Atlabs AI writes the full script, breaks it into scenes, and generates the video. Your idea is the brief - AI does the rest.

“An explainer on how compound interest quietly grows your savings over time, in a simple 60-second video”

Most Popular

Your written script or talking points

Paste your content directly - narration, bullet points, scene notes, or a mix. Atlabs reads the structure, finds the scenes, and generates visuals that match your message.

Intro: What is GDP? Point 1: It measures a country’s output. Point 2: It’s driven by spending, investment, and trade…

Full Script

A formatted video script

Upload or paste a formatted script. Atlabs understands scene headings, voiceover lines, and on-screen text - and turns each section into a polished animated sequence automatically.

SCENE — OFFICE, DAY. A founder stares at a messy spreadsheet. VOICEOVER: There had to be a better way.

How It Works

From script to ready-to-share explainer video in 4 steps

Paste your idea, outline, or script

Drop your content in any format. Atlabs AI reads it, identifies each scene, and prepares a visual plan ready for production.

Step 3

Lock characters, scenes, & props

Choose who appears, where the story takes place, and which objects recur. Atlabs locks each element so everything stays consistent.

Step 2

Choose a visual style & aspect ratio

What Makes Atlabs Different

The hardest problem in AI video - solved. Every scene looks like the same production.

Most AI video tools generate each scene randomly. Your character changes face. Scenes shift. Props look different every clip. Atlabs locks it all - so your explainer video has the visual coherence of a real animation studio.

Character consistency

Cast your character or mascot once and they look exactly the same in every scene - and every video. Same face, same outfit, same style. Whether it’s video 1 or video 20, your audience always recognises your brand.

Scene consistency

Set your scene and Atlabs holds it. The same office, lab, city, or landscape appears with consistent look, lighting, and atmosphere throughout - not a different version each time.

Object and prop consistency

Lock in a product, a device, a logo, or an icon - whatever matters to your message. It appears identically every time it’s shown, just like a real prop on set.

Use Cases

One script. Every kind of animated explainer - from product demos to educational series.

Product & SaaS Explainers

Show exactly how your product works in a clear, engaging animated video. Keep your UI, mascot, and brand consistent across every explainer you publish.

Educational Explainers

Turn complex topics - science, finance, history, health - into simple animated stories your audience actually understands and remembers.

Marketing & Social Videos

Create scroll-stopping animated explainers for ads, landing pages, and social - from 15-second hooks to full campaign videos.

Visual Styles

20+ styles. One script. Endless creative directions.

The same explainer can become a clean 3D animation, a hand-drawn whiteboard, or a playful paper-cut sequence - just by changing the style. Pick the one that fits your topic or experiment freely.

You can also train your own custom style on Atlabs - every video you make matches your unique brand look.

AI that reads your script like a director

Atlabs doesn’t stitch together random clips. It reads your script for scene structure, characters, tone, and intent - then makes deliberate shot and pacing choices the way a director would. You get an explainer video that feels crafted, not auto-generated.

FAQ

Common questions about turning scripts into explainer videos

What format does my script need to be in?

Any format works. Type a rough idea in plain sentences, paste talking points or a written script, or upload a formatted script with scene headings and voiceover lines. Atlabs handles all three.

How does character consistency work?

You cast each character once at the start of your project. Atlabs locks their look - face, outfit, style - and applies it identically in every scene that character appears in.

Can I lock a scene across multiple shots?

Yes. Set a scene - an office, a lab, a city street - and Atlabs generates it consistently across every shot set there. Same look, same lighting, same atmosphere.

What about objects and props? Can those stay consistent too?

Yes. Lock any object - a product, a device, a logo - and it appears the same way every time it shows up. Perfect for recurring brand elements and continuity.

How many visual styles are available?

Atlabs has 50+ visual styles including 3D, whiteboard, motion graphics, paper-cut, collage, low-poly, and more. Apply one style to the whole video or train your own custom style.

Can I add my own narration or do I have to use AI voices?

You can use Atlabs AI voices in 40+ languages, or upload your own audio to use as the narration or character voices. Both options are supported.

How long can my video be?

Video length depends on your plan. The Plus plan supports up to 10-minute videos and the Max plan goes up to 15 minutes. Short clips, rhymes, and full short stories are all achievable.

Can I edit specific scenes after generation?

Yes. After your video is generated you have full scene-level control. Swap any clip, regenerate individual scenes, change the narration, adjust timing, or tweak the visual style on specific scenes.

Can I export to different platforms?

Yes. Export in 16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for TikTok and Reels, and 1:1 for Instagram. Higher plans also support Premiere Pro export for additional post-production.

Is it free to start?

Yes. Start free with no credit card required. Free credits let you generate your first video immediately. Paid plans unlock longer videos, advanced AI models, higher resolution exports, and full consistency controls.
