Can a video be made from my script?

Not by smooth.video itself, but its project format is published at smooth.video/llms.txt. Give it to ChatGPT, Claude or another assistant along with your script, and open the file it writes in the editor.

Yes, as text elements you place on the timeline. There's no automatic transcription.

Is there a watermark?

No, and every download is free.

A free alternative to Biteable

Biteable builds business videos from a script, with a library of animated scenes, AI voices and avatars, automatic captions and viewer analytics. There's no free plan: the 7-day trial watermarks videos and doesn't let you download an MP4. smooth.video is free for good, and you animate each element yourself on a timeline.
