## What you get

### Any text that reads aloud

Facts, stories, motivation, a Reddit post: if it works spoken, it works here.

### Ready for Shorts, TikTok and Reels

9:16, captions timed to the voice, footage matched to the text.

### No sign-up, no watermark

Make and download one here with no account. The video is clean: no logo burned in.

## FAQ

### Can I try it without signing up?

Yes. Paste your script on this page and press "Make the video" to get a finished short, then download it with no account and no watermark. No-account videos are limited each day, so if today's are gone, sign up free or come back tomorrow.

### What text works best?

Anything written to be heard: short sentences, a hook in the first line, under about 180 words for one short. Nova can also tidy rough notes into a script.

### Is it free?

Yes. Make one on this page and download it with no account and no watermark, one a day per person while today's no-account videos last. With a free account (no card) your first faceless short is free too; after that, packs start at $0.99 with no subscription.

### What doesn't it do?

It narrates your words over background footage with captions. It doesn't make AI actors, talking avatars or film-style scenes, and it isn't a timeline editor.
