What is Docs to Video?

Docs to Video is a feature in AI Studios that turns your documents, such as PowerPoints, PDFs, and Word files, into professional videos in just a few minutes. The AI reads your file, writes a script, adds visuals, and includes an AI avatar voiceover.

You can use it to create training materials, sales pitches, educational content, and company updates with ease.
