Animated text videos, without touching a keyframe

This kinetic typography generator turns up to ten lines of text into an animated video with no footage and no editor. Choose a text style, a background colour and a duration between 1 and 20 seconds, and export vertical, square or landscape.

How it works

  1. 1

    Write your lines

    Up to ten lines, 120 characters each. Each line becomes one beat of the animation.

  2. 2

    Choose a style

    Pick a text preset and a background colour, and set the length between 1 and 20 seconds.

  3. 3

    Render and post

    Export 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9 and publish to a connected channel.

What you can make

Quote and motivation accounts

A quote as animated text outperforms the same quote as a static image, and takes about the same effort here.

Podcast and audio promos

Pull the sharpest three lines from an episode and turn them into a teaser without editing video.

Product launches

Announce features as a sequence of lines — reads faster than a paragraph and loops well in Stories.

Anyone without an editor

Kinetic typography normally means After Effects. This is the same output shape without the software or the learning curve.

Tips for better results

  • One idea per line. Kinetic typography works because each beat lands on its own — a line carrying two clauses reads as neither.
  • Match duration to line count, roughly a second per line plus a beat. Ten lines in six seconds is unreadable; three lines in twenty drags.
  • Use 9:16 unless you have a specific reason not to. Vertical is where short-form text video is actually watched.
  • Pick a dark background for feed autoplay. Bright backgrounds are visually loud on mute and get scrolled past faster.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need video footage?

No. The video is generated from your text and a background colour — there is nothing to film or upload.

How long can the video be?

Between 1 and 20 seconds, which covers Reels, TikTok and Stories.

Is it free?

It renders locally rather than through a generative model, so it is billed at a flat rate — the cheapest video tool here. New accounts start with a free credit allowance.

Can I use it commercially?

Yes, including client work and paid ads.

How is this different from a caption generator?

Captions are burned onto existing footage. Kinetic typography is the video — the text is the whole frame, so it needs no source clip.
