Turn a headline, your checked copy or a script into an explainer

Make a news explainer video from the story your team has already checked. Atlabs turns it into animated scenes with the same presenter character, the same map and chart style and the same studio, so every explainer looks like your outlet.

Grobe Idee

A news question in a line

Write the question readers are asking and the facts you have confirmed. The AI drafts an explainer script, splits it into scenes and builds a video for your editor to check.

What the new port strike means for shoppers, 2 minutes, calm tone, map of the three ports, our presenter Lena.

Am beliebtesten

Your checked story or key facts

Paste the key facts or the published story text. Atlabs keeps your wording and order and gives each fact its own scene, with your maps and charts in the house style.

Strike starts Monday at three ports. About a quarter of imports pass through them. Talks resume Thursday.

Vollständiges Skript

An editor-approved script

Upload a script with scene headings and voiceover lines that your editor has signed off. Atlabs animates each scene exactly as written, without changing any wording.

Everything a newsroom needs to make explainer videos

Atlabs reads your script like a news director would. It opens on the question readers are asking, moves to the map or chart when you cite a number and ends on what happens next, choosing shots, lighting and pace, so a news explainer video is clear in under two minutes.

What journalists say after making their news explainers with Atlabs

Lena now presents every explainer we publish, from the same studio, with maps in our colours. Readers recognise our videos in their feeds before they see the logo, which never happened with stock clips.

Digital Editor, Regional News Website, Manchester, UK

Our editor approves the script, and it goes in word for word. When the strike ended a day early, we changed two scenes and the explainer was up to date within the hour, in English and Spanish.

Producer, Local TV Newsroom, US

I explain each week's big story on my channel with the same presenter character. Subscribers say the maps and charts are the clearest part.
