What is a video maker for bloggers?
A video maker for bloggers is a tool that turns a blog post into a video. In Pictory you paste the post’s link or text, and it drafts the scenes, captions and a voiceover you can edit, then you export the video and embed it in the post or share it on social.
One of the AI tools for bloggers that adds a new audience. Some readers would rather watch. A video version of your most-read posts gives them a way in, and gives you something to share on channels where links do not travel well.
For the full steps from post to video, see blog to video.

From post to video
Start with the posts that already work: your most-read posts, how-tos with clear steps, and listicles, which split neatly into scenes. A post that answers one question makes a better video than a long round-up.
How it works
How to add a video to a blog post
To add a video to a blog post, paste the post’s link or text into Pictory and let it draft the video. Review the scenes and voice, then download the MP4 or copy a shareable link, and embed the video in the post the way your blog platform embeds video.
Paste the post
Its link or its text.
Review the scenes
Check the script and the visual in each scene.
Add the voice
An AI voice or your own recording.
Embed it

Your archive
Get more from an old post
Your archive is full of posts that still answer questions. Turn each one into a short video for social or for your email list, and link back to the post. One post a week adds up to a library of videos in a few months.
