What Is AI Helper?

AI Helper is a feature in AI Studios that helps you create video drafts in just a few steps. You start by choosing a template, entering a short prompt or idea, and the system will generate a full draft with a script, visuals, and voiceover. It’s designed to save time and make video creation easier, especially for beginners or quick projects.

It's especially helpful for:

  • First-time video creators

  • Marketing teams needing fast prototypes

  • Content creators working on social media hooks


How to Use AI Helper to Generate Videos

Step 1: Create a New Project

Click New Project in the top-right corner of your AI Studios dashboard. A pop-up window will appear with multiple creation options.


Step 2: Choose "Create with AI Helper"

In the pop-up window, select Create with AI Helper from the left-hand side menu.


Step 3: Select a Video Template

Browse templates designed for various content types. AI Helper is especially strong for short-form and social media videos.

You can ask for:

  • TikTok-style video

  • 10-second video hooks

  • Story formats like Unsolved Mysteries

  • Listicles, announcements, and more

Each template is optimized to streamline content creation for that specific use case.


Step 4: Enter Your Prompt or Video Idea

Each template will prompt you for specific input. Read the template instructions carefully before filling them out.

Examples:

  • Top List Template: You’ll enter how many items you want ranked and what the topic is.

  • Avatar News Template: You’ll paste the URL of the article you'd like summarized.


Step 5: Select a Video Theme

Choose the tone and style of your video. Each theme adjusts visuals, narration tone, and script style accordingly.

Step 6: Set the Video Duration

Choose how long your video should be. AI Helper supports videos from 30 seconds up to 3 minutes, depending on the format and platform.


Step 7: Choose Aspect Ratio

Select the correct format for your intended platform:

  • 16:9 for YouTube, web, or presentations

  • 9:16 for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and mobile-first content


Step 8: Decide on Avatar Presentation

Choose between:

  • AI Avatar Video: Includes an animated AI avatar presenter

  • Faceless Video: Voiceover only with visuals and subtitles


Step 9: Choose Media Source

Decide how visuals and footage should be pulled into the video:

  • Auto: AI selects the best available content

  • Search: Pulls stock visuals based on keywords

  • Free Stock: Uses royalty-free footage

  • Premium Stock: High-quality licensed media (may require credits)

  • Generative: AI-generated visuals based on your prompt

If you select the Generative option, you'll be asked to choose a media style for the visuals. Options include styles like Realistic, Sketch, Fantasy, Anime, and many others, giving you flexibility to match the visual tone of your video. Keep in mind that using generative visuals will use Generative Credits.


Step 10: Click "Create Video"

Once everything is set, click Create Video to generate your draft. This usually takes less than 5 minutes.


Step 11: Preview and Edit the Draft

After clicking Next, AI Studios will generate a preview of your video draft. You’ll see the selected images, script, and narration. At this stage, the avatar will not yet appear animated.

You can:

  • Edit the script by clicking on the text

  • Change visuals by clicking on a scene

If you would like to make make detailed changes to the video, click on the Editor button and it will guide you to AI Studios full AI Video editor.

And if you are unhappy with the overall video and would like to redo the entire draft, click on Change Options.


Step 12: Export and Finalize Your Video

Once you're happy with the draft, click Export. The final version will include the AI avatar voiceover and animations. You can return to the editor to make changes even after exporting.
