Text to Video AIText to video in one sentence
PennyVid is a text to video AI built for short-form content. Give it one sentence and it writes a full script; give it your own script and it skips straight to production. Either way you get a narrated video with visuals, subtitles and optional music.

Frequently asked questions
How does text to video work in PennyVid?+
Your text is split into scenes. Each scene gets an AI voiceover, a matching image and timed subtitles, and the scenes are rendered into one MP4 video.
How long does it take?+
The script is ready in seconds and the video usually renders within a few minutes. You can keep creating while it renders.
Can I edit the AI script before making the video?+
Yes. The generated script appears in an editable box, so you can rewrite any line before you create the video.
How cheap is PennyVid?+
PennyVid is built to cost pennies per video. You pay only for what you make: writing a script costs 1 credit and a video costs 1 credit per second, and failed renders are refunded. New accounts get 50 free credits when they sign in with Google — enough for a script plus a 30-second video with room to spare. Videos on the free plan carry a small PennyVid watermark.
