Start from your own handout
Turn a handout, a care pathway or a script into patient video
Make a patient education video from the handout you already use. Atlabs follows one patient through the pathway, from diagnosis to the procedure to going home, with the same character, ward and equipment in every video of the series.
Rough Idea
A care moment in a line
Describe the care moment and who the video is for. The AI drafts a patient education script, splits it into scenes and makes the video, ready for your clinical team to review and edit.
A 2-minute video for patients the week before a knee replacement: what to bring, the day itself, the first night.
Most Popular
Your approved handout or care pathway
Paste the patient handout or pathway your team approved. Atlabs keeps the wording, gives each step its own scene and shows the same patient moving through it.
Before surgery: stop eating at midnight. On the day: arrive at 7am. After: walking with a frame, then stairs.
Full Script
A reviewed patient script
Upload a finished script with scene headings and voiceover lines, signed off by your clinicians. Atlabs animates each scene exactly as written, word for word.
SCENE 1. Tom packs a small bag on his bed, crutches by the door. VO: "Tomorrow is your surgery day."
How It Works
From approved handout to patient education video in four steps
Paste your idea, outline, or script
Paste a care moment, your approved handout or a reviewed script, and Atlabs turns it into one clear step per scene.
STEP 1
Choose a visual style & aspect ratio
Choose a gentle style patients find easy to watch, like soft 2D or clean 3D, in 16:9 for portals and waiting room screens or 9:16 for phones.
STEP 2
Lock characters, scenes, & props
Lock your patient, the ward or recovery room and equipment like a walking frame or an inhaler, so the whole pathway uses the same faces and places.
STEP 3
Generate, refine, and publish
Generate the video, have your clinicians review it, update any scene they flag, then share it by text, portal or discharge pack.
STEP 4
50,000+ creators & teams · No credit card required
One patient through the pathway
Follow the same patient from diagnosis to recovery in every patient education video
Patients follow a story better than a list. Atlabs locks one patient character, the ward and the equipment, so the pre-op video, the day-of-surgery video and the going-home video read as one journey patients can picture themselves in.
Character consistency
Create a character once and Atlabs keeps the same face, outfit, colours and style in every scene and every video after it. Patients follow one familiar person from the first step to the last.

Scene consistency
Lock a setting and it keeps the same layout, lighting and mood each time it returns, so the ward, the recovery bay or the patient's own kitchen looks the same across the pathway.
Object and prop consistency
Inhalers, insulin pens, dressings and walking aids look the same in every scene. Upload a product photo to lock a device, so patients see exactly what they will use at home.

Use Cases
Patient education videos for procedures, conditions, medicines, devices and aftercare
Product & SaaS Explainers
Show how a patient portal, app or home device works, from logging in to taking a reading, so patients use it with confidence from the very first day.
Educational Explainers
Explain a condition, a test or a procedure step by step, with one patient going through it, so viewers know what each stage looks like.
Marketing & Social Videos
Share short patient education clips in reminder texts, on social pages and waiting room screens, before the appointment.
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.
