Text to video AI: create a clip from a description
Describe a scene in any language and our AI video generator creates a 5 or 10 second MP4 in vertical, horizontal or square. Test the idea as a €0.20 draft before paying for 2K or cinema quality with sound.

How it works
Describe the scene
Up to 800 characters, in your own language. To pin down a character, a product or a style, add a reference image as the first frame.
Choose format and quality
Vertical, horizontal or square; 5 or 10 seconds; Draft 480p with sound, Normal 768p, 2K, or Cinema 720p with sound. Our AI (Claude, by Anthropic) rewrites your text as a cinematic English prompt and shows it to you.
Generate and download
A draft takes about 1.5 minutes, Normal and 2K about 2-4 minutes, Cinema about 6-7 minutes. If the idea works, step up the quality; if anything fails, the credits come back on their own.
✓ Works best with
- Short scenes with one clear subject and one camera move.
- Vertical clips for TikTok, Reels and Shorts.
- Testing ideas cheaply as drafts before a final version.
✗ Can't recover
- Can't show real people without their consent.
- Can't render long readable text or exact logos reliably.
- Can't tell a long story: each clip lasts 5 or 10 seconds.
Frequently asked questions
How do I create a video from text with AI?
Write what should happen in the scene (subject, place, light, camera), choose format, length and quality, and press Generate video. Our AI turns your words into a detailed prompt for the video model and you download an MP4.
How much does text to video cost?
You pay with prepaid AI credits (1 AI credit = €0.10). For 5 s: Draft (Seedance 2.0 mini, 480p, with sound) 2 credits (€0.20), Normal (MiniMax H3, 768p) 7 (€0.70), 2K (MiniMax H3) 10 (€1.00), Cinema (Seedance 2.5, 720p, with sound) 18 (€1.80). 10 s costs double. Credits are refunded if the video fails. Packs: €10 for 100 credits, €24 for 250, €45 for 500.
How long does it take, and which quality should I pick?
Draft takes about 1.5 minutes, Normal and 2K about 2-4 minutes, Cinema about 6-7 minutes. Test the idea in Draft, then generate the good version in Normal, 2K or Cinema. Draft and Cinema generate sound along with the picture.
Can I make vertical videos for TikTok or Reels?
Yes: choose 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, 16:9 for YouTube or presentations, or 1:1 for square posts. Each clip lasts 5 or 10 seconds.
Where does my text go?
This tool does not run in the EU. Your text (and the reference image, if you add one) goes to the model provider: MiniMax (Singapore, international API) or BytePlus ModelArk (Seedance, by ByteDance, Johor, Malaysia), and to Anthropic (Claude) to write the prompt. Airpic does not keep the video: it is deleted 1 hour after download, 24 h at most.
Can I use the videos commercially?
Yes, including in ads, within the model provider's terms. Don't ask for real people without their consent or for explicit content: the provider may reject the request and your credits are refunded. If you add a reference image, you need the rights to it.
