Turn a written brief into a finished, publish-ready video in minutes

Zoetra assembles a piece of footage fast — cuts, score, narration, captions and motion — with none of your own filming. Write the video you want in the prompt field, pick a look, and let the scene builder render it. You can add an animated AI presenter too.

Generate narration straight from text with our voice engine and pull from 41,800 cleared music and stock clips to stitch a sequence together. With the full set of generation tools you get a broadcast-grade cut in under ten minutes. No blank timeline to stare at — and our clip finder reshapes long recordings into short vertical edits for you.

Tools you can use to build AI scenes:

How to…

Step 1

Write a brief and pick a look

Describe the video you want in the prompt field. The more specific the brief, the closer the first pass lands. Choose from social, documentary, product, onboarding and eleven other looks.

Step 2

Build the scene and refine

Render the sequence, then open it in the full editor. Layer narration over the cut with our text-to-speech presenters. Use the short-form trimmer to spin off vertical clips.

Step 3

Publish

Export at up to 4K, or publish straight to a channel and keep the project file for later revisions.

Shot-by-shot control: AI scene and script writer

Beyond the scene builder, Zoetra's script writer turns a one-line prompt into a full shooting script — beats, voiceover and on-screen text. Take that script straight into the editor and build each scene from it. Spin short-form cuts out of the same timeline with the clip finder, or run the spoken track through our dubbing engine to publish in nine more languages.

Let AI narration carry the story

Tell a story properly by layering narration, dialogue and voiceover onto the cut. Between the scene builder and our voice engine you can pick from 68 voice profiles across 34 languages and regional accents. You can also train a voice on your own recordings and drop instant voiceovers into any project — useful when a channel needs weekly narration and there's no budget for a booth session.

A complete studio for everything after the first cut

Past the generation tools, Zoetra covers the full editing pass that makes a video look considered — without the week of tutorials. Trimming, colour, captions, transitions, audio repair: all in one timeline. Already have footage? Point the smart-cut tool at a two-hour recording and it assembles a usable edit. Starting cold?

AI video creation with scene tools and more!

Zoetra doesn't stop at generation. It does far more than drop narration onto your footage or draft a script — it's a complete editing suite that gets a finished video out in minutes, so the production step stops being the bottleneck.

And there are 240 project templates waiting when you'd rather not start from an empty timeline: sales videos, paid social, trailers, course modules and plenty more. Open the editor and have a look around.
