What it does
Give explain.ink a topic, a script or a document. It writes the story, draws every scene by hand, records the voiceover and renders your video.
Give explain.ink a line, a script, or a document, and it draws the whole thing in minutes. Chalkboard or whiteboard. Voiceover included. Download the mp4. Most videos are ready in under five minutes. Longer ones take longer. Whichever one you already have. The other two are still there when the next video needs them. One line is enough. explain.ink writes the script and shapes the story before it draws anything. Already written? Your wording is kept as it is, and each line gets its own drawn scene. Upload the doc nobody reads. It comes back as the three or four things a viewer needs. Working from a PDF? See PDF to video . Want the classic marker look? See whiteboard animation . Every video…from explain.ink

Explain This – AI explanations in a web app instead of chatbot2024 · inlinehelp.com · ▲8"Explain This" was inspired by Github Copilot, where you can get an easy code explanation. So we bring this into a web app for customer support. I believe that chatbots are not it for customer support and that AI has better uses. "Explain This" allows the user to pick any part of web app and get it explained. The explanation is generated on the fly from the knowledge base; no need to have the content prepared; it will figure out the user's context and find the most fitting parts of the text we can then use to generate the content. When implemented it reduces the number of chatbot…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
