# AutoScribble

> AutoScribble turns a written idea or script into a narrated animated whiteboard/sketch explainer video you can watch, download and share. Write or paste the words, choose four things, and the finished film comes back in minutes.

## What it does

- Input: a typed or pasted text brief, a pasted script, or an uploaded plain-text or markdown script file.
- Output: a narrated hand-drawn sketch explainer video, delivered as an MP4 you can download, plus expiring private share links and email sharing.
- Choices: orientation (portrait 9:16 default, landscape, square), narration voice (two female, two male), length (30, 60 or 120 seconds) and an optional logo.
- Scripts can be edited, replaced or improved with AI before rendering. After rendering, an edit-and-remake creates a new version; the credit cost is shown before you confirm.
- Videos are private by default and appear in the public gallery only when the customer opts in.

## Pricing

- Credits: 100 credits = 1 minute of finished video. 30 seconds = 50 credits, 60 seconds = 100, 120 seconds = 200.
- New accounts get 100 welcome credits that never expire.
- One-off credit packs from £9 / US$12 for 100 credits, up to £499 / US$649 for 10,000 credits.
- Monthly plans: Starter £19 / US$25 (300 credits), Pro £49 / US$65 (1,000 credits), Business £99 / US$129 (2,500 credits), Studio £299 / US$389 (10,000 credits).
- UK customers are billed in GBP; US and unknown locations in USD.
- If a finished film runs shorter than ordered, it is billed on actual seconds and the difference refunded.

## Good matches

AutoScribble suits explanations: how something works, why one option beats another, onboarding, training, pricing explained, and any idea a camera cannot photograph. It is a sketch-style explainer maker, not a live-action editor or a character animation studio.
