What is blog to video AI?
Blog to video AI is software that turns a blog post or article into a video. Paste the link and Pictory’s blog to video generator reads the post, writes a script from its key points and builds scenes with visuals, a voiceover and captions.
You check the script before anything is built. Keep the points you want, cut the rest, and ask AI to shorten it or change the tone.
A post you already wrote gets a second life on YouTube, in Shorts and Reels, and at the top of the article itself. It runs online in your browser and is free to try.
