What it is
mySimpleshow is an AI video maker that turns text into animated explainer videos. Its Simplifier works from pasted text or uploaded files to create a short script from key information, while the AI Story Generator builds scripts from answers to a few questions. Users can make illustrated videos, AI avatar videos and narrated videos from PowerPoint slides. Scripts support more than 40 languages, and one-click translation is available for videos in more than 20 languages. The web platform also has an API that can create videos from text, templates and avatars, then return completed video links through webhooks. The Free plan costs nothing and includes three video renderings per month, two AI avatars, three illustration styles and link sharing. Eligible schools and universities can use the Classroom plan at no cost for up to 50 students, with collaboration, downloads and subtitle editing. The company says its platform is browser-accessible and hosted in an AWS virtual private cloud.
