Turn a training document into a narrated training video
Learning and development teams already have the content: guides, manuals and slide notes. Turning them into video usually means recording sessions or hiring a studio. Storyvalo drafts a narrated training video from the document itself, with a learning objective, the key procedure in order, a realistic example and a recap, ready for your review.
Opens the studio with an editable training video from a document brief. Sign in or create a free account first; nothing is generated or charged until you continue.
A good fit when
- You own training material that people struggle to finish.
- The topic can be taught in a few minutes.
- A subject-matter expert can review the script.
The closest real example
This export was made from an original training PDF that you can download from the example page, a direct match for this workflow.
Fictional demonstration: the brand, source and scenario were invented for this example. It is not a customer testimonial or evidence of business results. Watch it with its source and script.
Training video from a document, step by step
Upload the training document
Add the guide as PDF, text or Markdown, plus diagrams as images.
Set the objective
The starter opens with a learning objective. State the learner’s role and what they should be able to do afterwards.
Review with the expert
Download the script for the subject-matter expert. Check terminology, order and examples.
Render and publish
Render with captions and upload the MP4 and subtitles to your learning platform.
Keep the source of truth written
The video teaches; the document remains the reference. End each video by naming the document so learners know where to look up details.
Accessible by default
Captions and a subtitle file support learners with hearing impairments and those studying in a second language. Review caption text for specialist vocabulary.
Measure learning, not views
Pair the video with a short quiz or observed task in your learning platform. Completion rates show who watched; a check shows who learned.
The starter brief
“Use this starter” fills in this brief in the studio. Edit any of it before you generate a storyboard.
Turn the uploaded training document into a narrated training video. State the learning objective, teach the key procedure or concept in the document's order, include one realistic example from the document, and end with a recap. Use only facts from my source. Do not invent statistics, prices, quotes, customer names or results.
Review before you publish
Storyvalo drafts the script and assembles the video; you decide what is accurate. Read every scene against its source, check names, numbers and claims, and only use material you have permission to use. Stock footage and AI illustrations are illustrative, and narration is AI-generated.
What it costs
One 60-second, watermarked 720p export per verified account each calendar month. It ends with a short “Made with Storyvalo” card over its last two seconds. Standard voices and still or stock media. No payment card, no automatic subscription. Paid exports stay 1080p without the Storyvalo watermark. A free account includes five minutes of AI script attempts each calendar month, an editable storyboard and an interactive preview, with no card. Rendering a narrated video uses video minutes: export one minute for $2.99 or three minutes for $7.99, plus applicable tax, without a subscription. Monthly plans suit regular production and longer videos. Compare plans and packs.
