Hey HN, I've been working on this side project for the past month. It generates a step-by-step tutorial guide for YouTube videos that you can follow along without watching long videos. Best suited for tutorial videos but can work for other videos aswell. No BS. Just straight to the point. The guides are generated from pure transcript so you don't have to worry about it being AI. It's my first project as a total beginner. Something I had to do inorder to get out of tutorial hell. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or if you face any problems or bugs. I would try to fix them to the…

DeepReel▲191Hey HN! I'm Sahil, founder of DeepReel (https://deepreel.com). The Problem We're Solving We all know video is critical for growth and engagement, but creating it is a huge bottleneck. Creating professional videos still takes days or weeks per piece. Current AI video tools help, but they still make you juggle everything – you write scripts, choose visuals, pick music, make hundreds of micro-decisions. It's faster than agencies but nowhere near fast enough for scale. Our Background We started as an AI avatar company in 2023 and were the first startup to automate custom avatar…

X-Pilot▲328Hi HN, I'm Heshan, founder of X-Pilot. We're building an AI Video Generator for online courses and educational content. Unlike most text-to-video generator that render videos directly from models (which often produce random stock footage unrelated to the actual content), we take a code-first approach: generate editable code layers, let users verify/refine them, then render to video. The Problem We're Solving Most AI video generators treat "education" and "marketing" the same—they optimize for "looks good" rather than "logically accurate." When you feed a technical tutorial or course…

Hey HN, TLDR: The tool automates the entire process. No scripting, no voice model training, no production headaches. Just paste an article and get a video with Peter and Stewie explaining it. I'm a self-taught dev (admittedly mediocre), currently between jobs and lately, I've been doom-scrolling news and way too many dense articles. The constant information overload was giving me serious anxiety!! I built it to: - make complex topics more digestible through humor - create a buffer between me and the constant news cycle - turn learning into something I actually looked forward to I normally…

I've been working on this Claude Code pipeline for making 10-minute movies, gluing together Seedance (videogen), Nano Banana (image gen), and ElevenLabs (voice gen), and using Claude as the director. My repo contributes a markdown playbook and a worked example which should make it easier for other people to make their own short movies. A first-pass movie takes around 2.5 hours of wall clock time and costs around $200, and iterating is easy thanks to intermediate artifacts like storyboards and voice samples.

DemoSlice▲12Hi HN! I built DemoSlice after getting frustrated with enterprise demo tools that cost $20k-$50k/year. Most teams only use 40% of their features anyway. DemoSlice does one thing: turn screenshots into clickable product tours. No complex HTML capture, no training required, no expensive contracts. How it works: 1. Upload screenshots 2. Add clickable hotspots 3. Annotate with text bubbles 4. Share a public link Pricing is simple: Free plan (1 demo with watermark) or Pro at $19/month (unlimited, no watermark). Currently validating demand with a working prototype. Would love to hear…

Last year, I spent $3,200 on video production tools. Professional cameras, editing software, stock footage - and still wasn't creating fast enough. Then AI video tools exploded. Everyone promised to "revolutionize video creation." Reality? *90% are garbage*. I tested 50+ AI video tools over 6 months and built [FindAIVideo.com] to share what actually works. --- ## Why Most AI Video Reviews Are Useless Most "top 10 AI video tools" articles are: - Written by people who never used the tools - Paid affiliate spam - Outdated immediately - Missing hidden costs I wanted real testing, transparent…

The one-liner: You give it a script, it generates a portrait video in 10 minutes. No stock footage, no templates—it writes code that renders as video. ## Why I built this We were building game dev courses at Outscal and needed to produce a lot of video content fast. Traditional video production was slow. AI video generators looked weird. So we tried a different approach: what if video was just code? Turns out it works. We can replicate specific art styles, and the output is consistent and editable. ## What it can do - Generate 30-60 second shorts from a script - Match specific visual styles…
