Pictory
Turn blog posts and scripts into engaging short videos with AI
What is Pictory?
Pictory specializes in converting text-based content into engaging short-form videos automatically. Paste a blog post URL, article, or script, and Pictory selects relevant stock footage, adds animated captions, background music, and creates a polished video ready for social media. It's particularly useful for content repurposing — turn one blog post into multiple video clips for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn. The AI also creates highlight reels from long videos, extracts the most engaging moments, and adds captions for silent viewing.
