What is the AI video maker?
It's an AI agent that turns one sentence into a finished, edited video. It writes the script, plans every shot, makes the pictures and moving shots, reads a voiceover with a natural voice, times captions to every word, adds music, and cuts it all into one MP4 you can post or keep editing.
How is it different from the AI video generator?
The AI video generator makes one clip from one prompt. The AI video maker makes a whole video: script, shot list, several shots, voiceover, captions, music and the edit, in one go. You approve one plan and one price, and it does the rest. AI video generator (one clip from a prompt)
How to make an AI video from one sentence
- Say what it's aboutWrite one sentence. Add a product photo or a pet photo if you have one, and pick a format or leave it on Auto.
- Check the planYou get a shot-by-shot plan with the voiceover, on-screen text, music and a full price. Change any words, remove or add shots.
- Preview or make itPreview a cheap animatic made of pictures with camera moves, or make the full video with moving shots.
- Post itDownload the MP4 with captions, copy the ready-made title, caption and hashtags, or open it in the editor to keep going.
- Story: a tiny film from one idea, 3 to 5 moving shots, a title card and music.
- Product: an ad from your product photo, with a hook, proof shots for each selling point and an end card.
- Explainer: a faceless narrated explainer for YouTube Shorts and TikTok, with captions and headlines.
- Photo to video: one photo of your pet, a place or an object comes to life with natural sound and music.
Can I change one shot?
Yes. Before you start, every shot is a card you can rewrite, reorder or delete for free. After the video is made, edit the plan and make it again: only the shots you changed are made again and charged.
Voices and people
Voiceovers use PopNow's own narrator voices and are read off-screen. People in your photos never speak in the video, and people the agent invents are adults in everyday clothes. Product claims come only from what you wrote.

What works best
Works well
- One clear idea per video, like one product, one question or one little story.
- Clean product photos on a plain background.
- Pet and place photos where the subject is easy to see.
Not a good fit
- Making a real person speak on camera.
- Long videos over a minute: make several short ones instead.
- Exact text inside the pictures: put words in on-screen text instead.
Questions
How is the AI video maker different from the AI video generator?+
The generator makes a single clip from a prompt. The video maker plans and makes a whole edited video from one sentence: script, several shots, voiceover, captions, music and the final cut.
How do I make an AI video from one sentence?+
Write your idea, check the shot-by-shot plan and its price, then press Make the video. The plan takes about 1 credit to write.
Can I change one shot without starting over?+
Yes. Edit that shot's words in the plan and make it again. Only the changed shots are remade and charged; everything else is reused.
How much does a video cost?+
A 30-second animatic is about 33 credits, a 30-second explainer with two moving shots about 89, and a 20-second story where every shot moves about 152. Failed steps are refunded and editing is free.
Can I use my own photos?+
Yes, up to three: a product, a pet, an object or a place. The agent keeps your product's shape, colors and label the same in every shot.
Does anyone in the video speak to the camera?+
No. The voiceover is read off-screen by PopNow's narrator voices, and people in your photos never speak in the video.
Can I edit the video afterwards?+
Yes. Open it in the PopNow editor with every shot, the voiceover and the music on the timeline, or download the MP4.
Is it ready for TikTok, Reels and YouTube Shorts?+
Yes. Videos are 9:16 by default with word-timed captions, and you get a ready-to-paste title, caption and hashtags.
