  1. Step 1

    Pick a doodle look

    Five ready-made looks draw stick figures, or paste a link to a stick-figure channel you like.

    Upload your voiceover

    MP3, WAV, M4A and other common audio files, up to 50 MB.

  3. Step 3

    Approve the plan

    See the characters and places first, and choose how often the pictures change.

  4. Step 4

    Edit and export

    Retime scenes, style captions, add music and sound effects. Exports are free.

The AI team behind every video

Viducer isn't one model making clips. Every video is made by a team of specialized AI agents, each doing one job a production crew would do.

  • Director

    Plans your narration into chapters, characters and places.

  • Art director

    Locks one visual style and holds it from the first scene to the last.

  • Scene writer

    Directs every shot to match the line being spoken.

  • Editor

    Cuts everything to your voice, with subtitles timed to every word.

A structure that works

  1. 1

    The hook

    A question or a "what if" the viewer wants answered.

  2. 2

    The setup

    One simple scene that puts the viewer in the situation.

  3. 3

    The explanation, step by step

    One idea per scene; stick figures keep the eye on the idea, not the art.

  4. 4

    The twist or the consequence

    What happens next, or why it matters more than it seemed.

  5. 5

    The takeaway

    One line the viewer will remember.

Why stick figures work

They read instantly, they keep attention on what is being said, and they never look wrong from one scene to the next. That is why so many explainer, "what if" and history channels use them.

Is it animated?

Each scene is a finished stick-figure drawing that changes in time with your narration, with subtitles, music and sound effects. Figures don't walk or move within a scene.

Questions

Is this real stick figure animation?

It is illustrated video: each scene is a stick-figure drawing cut in time with your narration. Figures don't move within a scene.

Can I use my own stick figure style?

Yes. Upload up to four pictures of your style, or paste a link to a video drawn the way you want.

How long can a stick figure video be?

Up to 60 minutes from one voiceover.

How much does it cost?

Plans start at $49 a month. You approve the cost of the pictures before they are drawn; editing and exports are free.

Your next video starts with the voiceover you already have.
