Script, voice, footage, and every text and effect on its own track — assembled by the tool and opened in its own editor. You have the last word, then export the MP4. Long videos in 16:9, Shorts in 9:16, or Shorts cut out of a long video you already made.
Frames from a 90-second test video. Every text lands on the word it belongs to; the chart, the counter and the list are drawn from the script's own numbers.






Pick the shape when you start: a long video in 16:9, or a Short in 9:16 at 15, 30, 45 or 60 seconds. A Short is not a long video in a narrow frame — it is written to stop a thumb in its first sentence, cut about every second and a half, and it carries every spoken word on the screen as it is said.



The same run, in the tall frame: the script written to the seconds rather than the minutes, the footage searched vertical, the pictures drawn 9:16, the cutting twice as busy, and captions on every word.
Point it at a finished video and it reads the script for the moments that stand on their own, then builds a Short out of each: the same voice, the same footage, re-framed. Nothing is written again and no voice is bought.
Every Short opens in the same editor, with the captions on their own track, and exports 1080×1920 — or square, or wide with the Short in the middle.
Every other tool hands you an MP4 and nothing else. YTF opens the finished video in its own editor with every piece still movable — and since YouTube began acting on unedited, mass-produced video, that is the whole difference.
Roll a cut, split, trim, swap footage, hold a frame, set a speed. Take hold of a title or a picture on the preview and drag it where it belongs. Titles and shapes, a caption's words rewritten, 49 transitions or YTF Magix placing them by what each sentence does, Remove Silences across every track, colour and crop, the sound mixed as you listen. Export presets from 720p to 4K, vertical and square.
Premiere Pro — XML, and timeline.xml beside every video. DaVinci Resolve — OTIO, XML, EDL. Final Cut Pro — FCPXML. CapCut and the rest — a media pack: the video, voice / music / sound stems as WAV, captions as SRT, every title and graphic as PNG with its times, the cut list.
_assets\ with every clip and picture by scene, voiceover.srt captions, and youtube_description.txt with chapters, tags and the sources the research found.
SOURCES.html — where every file came from and under what licence — and AI_DISCLOSURE.txt, the honest answer to YouTube's synthetic-content question, per video.
Everything runs on your own computer, on your own keys. Nothing you make passes through us.
Three libraries, and two generators for what no library has. The tool reads your title and tells you which it will be before you pick anything.
Confirm a title and it asks what Envato, Pexels and the archives hold for it — then says so, under the two build cards: stock covers this, the world is there but the specifics are not, or beyond stock, generate the pictures. A subject beyond stock recommends the generated build, and on its own the tool leans the video toward drawn pictures rather than forcing clips that do not exist. You know what you will get before anything is spent.
A pack of credits, then your own API keys for the script, the voice and any generated pictures. Here is all of it, in one place.
A Short is under a minute, so it costs a fraction of a long video to make — and it is priced like one. Its own balance on your account: a video credit can be spent on a Short, a Short credit is never spent on a long video.
2 videos and 5 Shorts are free on a new account (4 minutes, 30 seconds) — the first thing you pay for is the sixth Short, not your first look. Paid in the tool with PayPal or Gumroad.
Anthropic writes the script, ElevenLabs records the voice, and — only if you pick them — Google or Leonardo draw pictures. Each bills your account, per use. How much depends on the length and on what you pick; measured on one real 10-minute video:
| Anthropic (the script)required · pay-as-you-go key | $0.28 |
| ElevenLabs (the voice)required · pay-as-you-go key | $2.10 |
| Pexels, the archives (footage)free | $0 |
| Google Gemini (generated pictures)only if picked · Leonardo bills its own plan | $2.22 |
| Per 10-minute video, on top of the pack | $2.40 – $4.60 |
The installer is not signed with a paid code-signing certificate, so SmartScreen shows “Windows protected your PC”: click More info, then Run anyway. The Mac app is not notarized with a paid Apple developer account, so macOS will not open it the first time: System Settings › Privacy & Security › Open Anyway, once. Everything it needs is inside the download — nothing is fetched during setup. The install guide walks through both.
The same account and the same credits on either — the credits are on the account, not on the computer. Pick the download for the computer you will make the videos on.
Which Mac? Apple menu › About This Mac: “Chip Apple M…” is Apple Silicon, “Processor … Intel” is Intel. Version 2.90.0 on all three. The install guide.
YouTube's rule targets mass-produced, unedited, repetitive video. YTF writes an original script per title, refuses to give the next video the same recipe as the last five, records every clip's source, hands you the disclosure text — and opens the video in an editor with every piece still movable, not as a file to upload blind. It never uploads anything. What you publish is still yours to stand behind.
One credit from your pack, plus your own keys — roughly $2.40 with free footage and $4.60 with generated pictures on a 10-minute video, less on a shorter one. What it costs has the whole of it; the tool shows your own estimate before Start and the running total while it works.
Yes, and they are made as Shorts rather than as a long video squeezed into a narrow frame. You pick the shape on the screen after the title: 16:9, or 9:16 at 15, 30, 45 or 60 seconds. A Short is written to its seconds with the hook in the first sentence, the footage is searched vertical and the pictures drawn 9:16, it cuts about every second and a half, every spoken word is on the screen as it is said, and nothing is placed where YouTube draws its own buttons. It can also take a long video you have already made, find the moments that stand on their own, and build a Short out of each — same voice, same footage, re-framed, nothing written again. Shorts have their own packs and their own balance; see What it costs.
Then no library will pretend it is. The tool checks the title when you confirm it and says whether Envato, Pexels and the archives hold that world; a history, “what if”, named-person or fiction subject is marked as beyond stock, the generated build is recommended, and the video leans on drawn pictures (Leonardo or Gemini, your keys) rather than clips that do not exist. Establishing shots — a sky, a city, hands at work — still come from the libraries.
Nine: English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, Italian, Dutch, Polish and Indonesian — the script, the voice, the titles and the captions are written in the one you pick with the title, not translated. The tool itself speaks English.
Credits are not refundable — which is why 2 videos are free first. Try those on a real title before buying anything.
No. The tool has its own editor: the finished video opens in it, you fine-tune and export the MP4. If you already work in Premiere Pro (2025 or newer), timeline.xml is written beside every video and the editor exports XML too; DaVinci Resolve takes OTIO, XML or EDL, Final Cut Pro takes FCPXML, and CapCut or any other editor gets the media pack — video, stems, SRT captions, every layer as PNG.
Yes — natively, on Apple Silicon (M1 to M5) and on Intel, macOS 14 Sonoma or newer. It is the same tool with the same editor and the same account: the video it makes on a Mac is the one it makes on Windows, with the Mac's own encoder and sound underneath. There is a download for each kind of Mac; the downloads say how to tell which you have.
One account, one computer (moving to a new one is a click in the account panel). The 2 free videos are per computer. It needs the internet while it works — the script, the voice, the footage and the licence check — but editing and exporting the result needs nothing.
2 free videos and 5 free Shorts. No card, no subscription. If it is not for you, nothing was bought.
