Explainer Video for your AI agent
Ask for a video inside Codex, Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client and get a narrated, hand-drawn explainer MP4 back. Text, a URL or a document in; storyboard, illustrations, voice-over and subtitles out. No API keys.

What your agent can do

Text → video
Paste notes, a script or a topic. 5 seconds to 5 minutes, 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 4:5, narration in the language you ask for.

URL → video
Hand over a link. The agent reads the page with its own tools and sends only the extracted text.

Document → video
Attach a PDF or notes. The file stays on your machine; you get the MP4, the subtitle file and the real duration back.
Only extracted text is sent; files and your API keys never leave your machine.No agent? Make one in your browserSource on GitHub
