Explainimate

Hand-drawn whiteboard explainer videos from topic or script

About Explainimate

I wanted to make little whiteboard explainer videos without learning animation software, so I built Explainimate. Give it a topic or paste your own script. The AI writes a script first and you can edit it before anything gets drawn. Then a pen sketches each scene in sync with the narration. I use it for lessons and product demos, and a few friends use it for social posts. It's free to try, and longer or more videos need a paid plan.
