AI Video Maker

Create compelling videos faster, without losing the people, stories, and moments that set you apart.

Your media, your voice, your video

People connect with people, not made-up avatars. 78% of consumers say they trust videos with real people and brand media. Unlike impersonal AI generators that invent people, places, and things out of thin air, Animoto’s AI puts you at the center. Your media will always be at the center of your videos.

Make a video in minutes, not days

Create with AI

Create more videos in less time. Just pick a video type, add need-to-know details, upload your media, and generate. AI does the heavy lifting of scripting, structuring, and assembling your video. The result is a professional video that’s uniquely yours, produced in a fraction of the time.

Generate from a URL

Want to turn a homepage, product, or real estate listing, or blog post into a video? Paste in a URL, and our AI tool will transform your content into a ready-to-share video using your site’s text, photos, and videos as the base.

Edit as much (or little) as you like

You are in control of your video. After AI has pieced everything together, you can use Animoto's built-in tools to edit the text, colors, layout, music, pacing, and any other aspect you'd like.
