Start from your narration
Turn a topic, talking points or a voice script into a video
Make an explainer video with voiceover without booking a voice over artist or syncing audio by hand. Paste your script, pick a voice or upload your own, and Atlabs animates every scene to match the narration, with lip-sync and music included.
Rough Idea
A topic to be narrated
Write a few sentences about what the video should explain and who will hear it. The AI writes the narration, splits it into scenes and voices the whole explainer for you.
A calm 60-second narrated explainer on why sleep matters for focus, for busy office workers.
Most Popular
Your narration as talking points
Paste the lines you want spoken, in order. Atlabs keeps your words exactly as written for the voiceover and creates a scene that shows what each line says.
Line 1: Your heart beats 100,000 times a day. Line 2: Each beat pushes blood to every cell. Line 3: Here is how it works.
Full Script
A full voiceover script
Have a recorded-style script with scene notes and VO lines? Upload it as it is, and each scene becomes an animated shot timed to the voiceover you wrote.
SCENE 1. Ocean at dawn. VO (calm, female): "Every hurricane begins as warm water and rising air."

Pictures that follow the voice
Keep the same characters, settings and props in sync with every line of narration
A voiceover works when the visuals stay steady behind it. Atlabs locks your cast, settings and objects once, so the narrator can move between ideas while every scene still looks like part of one story.
Character consistency
Create a character once and Atlabs keeps the same face, outfit, colours and style in every scene and every video after it. Whoever the narrator talks about always looks like themselves on screen.

Scene consistency
Lock a setting and it keeps the same layout, lighting and mood each time the narration returns to it. Viewers always know exactly where they are in the story.
Object and prop consistency
Products, diagrams, logos and icons look exactly the same every time the voiceover mentions them, so the visuals and the words never disagree.
