For Faceless Creators

Make story time shorts
without a camera

Storytime is the faceless format that never stops working — a narrated story, a background loop underneath, captions on every word. Nova builds it: paste your story or a Reddit thread, pick a voice, and it narrates over looping background footage with kinetic captions timed to the read. A finished storytime short, no face and no editor.

Free tier included — no credit card required

A real Nova shortAn 80-word script in, this out — AI voice, word-timed captions, background footage. About two minutes.

Any story becomes a short

Paste your own writing or the text of a Reddit story and Nova narrates it in an AI voice over looping background footage — the storytime format assembled end to end from text alone.

Kinetic captions that hold

Word-by-word captions pulse on the emphasised words, synced to the AI narration — the retention trick every storytime page leans on, burned in automatically.

Ship one every day

Because Nova generates the voice and the background, a storytime short takes one paste instead of an evening of editing — enough to actually feed the daily-posting habit the niche rewards.

From script to posted in three steps

1.Write the script

Type or paste the words you want spoken — or give Nova the idea and it writes them for you.

Questions? Answers.

How do I make a story time video without showing my face?

Paste your story text or a Reddit thread into Nova's faceless mode. It narrates the story in an AI voice, lays it over looping background footage, and burns in word-by-word captions timed to the narration — a finished storytime short, no camera.

Can I use my own written story?

Yes — type or paste your own story, or paste the text of a Reddit post, and Nova narrates it. Either way you get a captioned vertical short over looping background footage.

Is it free?

Your first faceless short is free — no card. Nova gives every new account one full faceless render so you can judge the voice, the captions and the finished video before paying for anything. After that, shorts come in one-time packs from $0.99 with no subscription, or a monthly plan from $15 gives you up to 300 a month. (Regular AI clipping has its own free tier: 30 minutes a month.)
