# Text to Video

Paste a script of up to 3,000 characters and ToolSugar reads it aloud, sets captions to the voice, and exports an MP4. You can keep the plain dark background or add a picture of your own. Everything happens in your browser, and it uses one of 5 free AI runs per rolling 24 hours. This is not generated footage: the picture stays still behind the captions.

Runs on your device

## How it works

1. Paste your script and pick a language and voice.
2. Choose landscape, vertical or square, and add a background picture if you have one.
3. Make the video, then download the MP4.

## Key facts

- **Script limit**: 3,000 characters
- **Sizes**: 1280 x 720, 720 x 1280, or 720 x 720
- **Visuals**: Captions over a dark background or your own picture
- **Privacy**: The voice runs in your browser, so the script never leaves your device.

## Common uses

- Turn a product announcement into a short video for a feed.
- Make a narrated notice for a lobby screen or a class page.
- Publish a blog summary as something people can watch.

## Questions

### Does it generate video footage from my words?

No. It makes a spoken track and captions on a still background. No scenes or footage are generated.

### How are the captions timed?

Each sentence is voiced on its own and its measured length sets when its caption appears. Long sentences are split across several caption cards, shared out by length.

### Can I edit the captions separately from the voice?

No. The captions come straight from your script, so edit the script and run it again to change both.
