VideoScribe is an AI-powered whiteboard animation software made by Sparkol in 2012. It was created by Jon Air, and it allows anybody to create animated videos quickly, no matter what level of technical or design experience you have. With its drag-and-drop format and unique hand-drawn style, the educational content it produces is entertaining to watch and easy to absorb. The platform is available as a desktop app that works offline or as a browser-based version, which is better suited for the latest updates and offers powerful features like scene management and canvas resizing. The introduction of artificial intelligence functions further streamlines video creation with automated image generation, automatic script writing, and automatic voiceovers.
VideoScribe has an extensive asset library; it has templates to customize, and it has animation effects for drawing, fading, bouncing, pulsing, and more. Users can produce a story in minutes. Educators use it to explain a complex topic clearly, businesses use it for promotional campaigns or training, and content creators use it to tell stories on a social media platform. VideoScribe is unique because it is technically simple, flexible, and professional all at once; it truly is for creators wanting to create video content in a compelling way, whilst not having the technical skills.
