Turn a lecture topic, your notes or a script into an explainer

Go from lecture to video without filming a single minute. Paste your lecture notes or transcript, and Atlabs turns the key idea into a short animated explainer, with the same characters and diagrams across every week of the module.

Grobe Idee

A lecture topic in a line

Name the lecture, the key idea and the level. The AI writes a short explainer script, splits it into scenes with your recurring characters and builds the video for the module.

Week 3 of Intro to Economics: opportunity cost, 4 minutes, first-year undergrads, one student choosing a job.

Your lecture notes or a transcript

Paste your lecture notes, slide notes or a transcript of the talk. Atlabs picks out the structure you wrote and turns each key point into a clear scene.

Opportunity cost = value of the next best option. Example: study vs part-time job. Link to PPF. Common errors.

Vollständiges Skript

A short explainer script

Upload a script with scene headings and voiceover lines, written from your lecture. Atlabs animates each scene exactly as written, ready for your learning platform.

One look across the module

Keep the same characters, case studies and diagrams in every lecture video of the module

Modules build week by week, and so should the pictures. Atlabs locks your recurring characters, the case-study settings and the way you draw graphs and models, so week three's explainer connects to week nine's without students relearning anything.

Konsistenz der Charaktere

Create a character once and Atlabs keeps the same face, outfit, colours and style in every scene and every video after it. A case-study character can follow students through the whole module.

Szenenkonsistenz

Lock a setting and it keeps the same layout, lighting and mood each time it returns, so a case-study company, lab or town looks the same in every week's explainer.

Konsistenz von Objekten und Requisiten

Graphs, models, diagrams and equations look the same in every scene, so the curve students learned in week two still matches in week ten.

Everything a lecturer needs to turn lectures into video

AI that reads your script like a director

Atlabs reads your lecture notes like a director would. It finds the key idea, shows it with a case-study scene, moves to the diagram when you introduce the model and closes on a summary, choosing shots and pace, so lecture to video gives students the one idea they must take away.

Translate your video to 40+ languages

Teach an international cohort. Translate the narration, dialogue and captions into 40+ languages, with the same characters and diagrams, so every student gets the same explainer.

Background music that matches the mood

Atlabs adds quiet royalty-free music that fits each scene and never competes with the explanation. Turn it down, change it or upload your own track if you prefer.

Auto lip-sync

When your case-study characters talk through a problem, their lips move in time with the voice, so worked scenarios feel like real seminar discussions.

Ultra-realistic narration

Choose a clear, measured voice in 40+ languages and accents that suits academic content. Or upload your own recording, so students hear their own lecturer explain it.

Full scene-level editing control

Students misunderstood one model in the seminar? Swap, regenerate, retime or restyle only that scene, and the rest of the lecture explainer stays exactly as it was.

Das sagen Creator

What lecturers say after turning lectures into Atlabs videos

Amara, our case-study student, now appears in every week of the first-year economics module. Students tell us the short explainers make the lecture make sense, and they rewatch them before the exam.

Senior Lecturer, School of Economics, University, UK

I paste my lecture notes and get a four-minute explainer of the key idea. The graphs look the same every week, so students connect each new model to the last one without me redrawing it in class.

Lecturer, Business School, Netherlands

We added a short explainer to every module in the faculty, all in one style. Students say the platform finally feels like one joined-up course.
