Video & Scripts

AI explainer video script generator, scene by scene

An explainer video lives or dies on pacing — too much said, too little shown, and viewers lose the thread. This tool writes your explainer scene by scene, pairing each voiceover line with the visual it needs, scaled to a runtime between 30 and 120 seconds.

What the explainer video script generator gives you

  • Scene-by-scene breakdown with voiceover text and the visual direction for that scene side by side.
  • Pacing scaled to your target runtime, from a 30-second teaser to a 2-minute product walkthrough.
  • A closing scene built around one clear next step rather than a vague summary.

Who it is for

Product marketers, startup founders and video producers turning a product or feature into a short explainer.

Why it is different

Voiceover and visuals are written together as scenes, not as a separate script and shot list you have to reconcile yourself.

Example: 90-second explainer for a team expense app

An illustrative brief and output written by our team to show the format. It is not a customer result and makes no performance claim.

The brief

Product
Expense app that auto-categorises receipts from a photo
Audience
Office managers tired of chasing receipts
Style
Flat illustration, single narrator

The output

Scene-by-scene

  • Scene 1 (0–8s) VO: 'Every receipt is a small task someone has to do later.' Visual: a drawer stuffed with paper receipts.
  • Scene 2 (8–20s) VO: 'Photo it, and it's categorised, matched, and ready for the report.' Visual: phone camera over a receipt, instant category tag appears.
  • Scene 3 (20–35s) VO: 'No spreadsheet, no end-of-month scramble.' Visual: a calm dashboard replacing a chaotic spreadsheet.

Closing scene

  • VO: 'Try it on your next receipt.' Visual: logo, one-line CTA, no crowded end card.

Explainer Video Script Generator FAQs

How long should a product explainer video be?+

Most product explainers work best between 60 and 90 seconds — long enough to explain the mechanism, short enough to hold attention. Tell the tool your target length and it paces the scenes to fit.

Does it tell me what to show on screen, not just what to say?+

Yes, each scene includes a visual direction alongside the voiceover line, so an editor or animator has enough to start work.

Can it be used for an animated explainer instead of live-action?+

Yes — the visual directions describe what needs to appear on screen conceptually, which works for either animation or live footage.
