How it works

From one sentence to a posted reel, in three steps.

You read the script and see the price before anything is charged.

  1. Text2Reel’s first step: Promo selected, and the idea “Promo for Northwind, a meal-planning app that writes the week’s dinners and the shopping list for you” typed in

    Step 1: Describe it

    Pick Promo, What if or Story and write a sentence or two. Paste your site’s link and we look for your product images on it.

  2. Text2Reel’s script review: six scenes of about 31 seconds, each with its narration line and length

    Step 2: Review your script and pictures

    Read it scene by scene. Change any line yourself or ask Refine with AI, choose where each picture goes, and pick a voice. Writing and editing is free.

  3. Text2Reel’s confirm step: an estimated price of $10.89 for about 30 seconds at 1080p, the balance before and after, and what will render

    Step 3: Render and post

    Choose 15 to 60 seconds at 720p or 1080p and see the price before you confirm. The video is ready in about 5 to 10 minutes: download it or post it to Instagram.

  • About 5 minutes to write a script
  • About 5 to 10 minutes to render
  • Charged only when the video is finished

Who it’s for

Short videos for whatever you need to post.

Pick the kind of video, describe it in your own words, and add your own pictures if you have them.

Your brand, your pictures

Put your real product, screens and logo in the video.

Add photos and clips, pick them from your Library, or paste your site’s link and we look for images on it. Then choose how each one is used.

  • Reference

    A person, product or place the shot is drawn around. Use it in several scenes to keep it looking the same.

  • Screen card

    Shown on top exactly as it is. For app screenshots and anything that must stay exact.

  • Opening and closing frames

    A scene starts or ends exactly on your picture. A logo at the end becomes your end card.

  • Refine with AI

    Say what should change in a scene, like “make it night” or “show the product closer”. Nothing changes until you save.

Photos in JPG, PNG or WebP up to 20 MB, and clips of up to 15 seconds. Everything you upload stays in your Library for the next video.

Voices

Narrated in a studio voice, or in your own.

Listen to the narrators and pick one. Or make a voice that’s yours and use it in any video.

  • Studio and Classic voices

    Ready-made narrators you can preview before you choose.

  • Clone your voice

    Read our script aloud for about a minute, or upload recordings. It’s ready in about a minute.

  • Design a voice

    Describe how it should sound and pick from three previews.

  • Same price, any voice

    A video costs the same whichever voice reads it.

Your first voice is free to keep, and a Voice pass keeps up to five. Only clone your own voice, or someone who has said yes in writing. Your voices are private: nobody else on Text2Reel can hear or use them.

Create a voice in Text2Reel: clone a voice from 1 to 3 minutes of speech, or design one from a description. Both are free to make.

Publish

Post to Instagram, then see how it does.

Connect your Instagram professional accounts once. Every finished video gets a Publish button.

  • Reel, Story or both

    A Reel stays on your profile with its caption. A Story is up for 24 hours.

  • Every account in one go

    Tick the accounts you run and write the caption once.

  • The numbers come back

    Views, likes and comments for each post, added up for the video.

  • Instagram
  • Facebooksoon
  • TikToksoon
  • YouTubesoon
  • LinkedInsoon

Or download the MP4 and post it anywhere.

We answer support email within one business day.

What is Text2Reel?

Text2Reel turns one idea into a short vertical video. You describe what you want, it writes a script in scenes that you can edit, and then it renders a narrated 9:16 video with captions and music, 15 to 60 seconds long.

Who is it for?

Small businesses, app makers, marketers and creators who need to post short videos often: product promos, local offers, app launches, curiosity shorts and narrated stories.

How long does a video take?

Writing a script usually takes around 5 minutes, and a render usually takes 5 to 10 minutes. You can leave while it works; the finished video waits in your Videos.

What does a video cost?

You pay by the rendered second: $0.20 at 720p and $0.363 at 1080p, and at least $2.50 a video. A 30-second video is $6.00 at 720p. There is no subscription; you top up from $5.

Is anything free?

Writing and editing scripts. New accounts get 10 free scripts, and scripts are unlimited once you’ve added $5. You’re only charged when a video finishes rendering, and a render that fails costs nothing.

Can I use my own photos, logo and screenshots?

Yes. Upload photos and short clips, pick them from your Library, or paste your site’s link and we look for images on it. Each picture can be a reference, a screen card shown exactly as it is, or an opening or closing frame. A logo at the end becomes your end card.

Can I use my own voice?

Yes. Clone your voice from about a minute of reading, or design one from a description. Your first voice is free to keep, and a Voice pass keeps up to five. Only clone your own voice, or one you have written permission to use.

Where can I post my videos?

Download the MP4 and post it anywhere. You can also publish straight to Instagram as a Reel, a Story or both, on several accounts at once, and see views, likes and comments. Facebook, TikTok, YouTube and LinkedIn are coming.

Who owns the videos?

You do, subject to the rights of anyone whose material you put in them, and you can use them commercially. We don’t show your content to other users.

Can I close my account?

Yes, from Account settings or by emailing support@text2reel.ai. You get 14 days to change your mind; after that the account is deleted and can’t be restored.

Your next reel starts with one sentence.

Scripts are free. You see the price before you render, and pay only for the seconds you use.
