Content Factory makes short vertical videos without anyone on camera. You choose a look and a topic — usually a "What if…" question — and it writes the script, narrates it, adds animated captions and music, and renders the episode. Keep the same look to build a recognizable series.

Step 4: Write a topic and generate

Write one question or idea, set the length and the number of episodes, and press Generate. The button shows an estimate before you start; a 30-second episode is the cheapest way to test a style.

Tips for better results

  • Ask a question a viewer wants answered. "What if the Moon disappeared?" beats "Facts about the Moon".
  • Keep one style per series so viewers recognize your channel.
  • Make one episode first. Check the narration and pacing, then make more.
