What is a training video maker?
A training video maker turns training material into a video. In Pictory you upload a document or a slide deck, or paste a script, and it builds a scene for each point with a voiceover and captions. You edit the video online and download it.
The material you already have. The handbook, the onboarding deck and the process document are already written. Pictory turns each into a video people can watch in a few minutes, and you update it by editing the text.
Use it as an AI training video maker for one course or for a whole library. It runs in your browser and is free to try. For a short video that explains one idea, see the explainer video maker.
