About Vid.AI
Vid.AI is a hosted video generator for creators who publish faceless YouTube videos, Shorts, TikToks and Reels. You describe the video in up to 500 characters and choose a faceless video, a short or a version with an avatar, and it writes the script, records a voiceover, finds visuals, adds music and captions, and returns a finished video.
Voiceovers come from 33 hand-picked ElevenLabs narrators, or you can add a voice from the ElevenLabs Voice Library. Visuals draw on licensed Storyblocks stock footage matched to the script, and a newer option generates a cinematic five-second intro with the Seedance video model before fading into the first scene. Animated avatars and motion graphics are also offered. The site lists pricing, avatar and MCP pages, a changelog and an affiliate program. Credits can be refunded within 30 days if unused, and plans can be canceled at any time.
