DistilBook turns an economics chapter, article, or prompt into a narrated animated explainer, one scene per mechanism, with charts generated for your content. The first narrated slide plays in about 6 minutes, and a typical 8 slide topic, say how inflation spreads, renders in about 15 to 25 minutes.
You start free: signing up gives you 10 credits with no credit card, a slide costs 10 credits, so the first slide of your video generates free and you can watch it in full; the rest unlocks on a paid plan. DistilBook accepts PDF, Word, images, plain text, a web article link, or a written prompt, and you approve the AI narration script before anything renders. Paid plans start at $20 per month for 230 credits, roughly 23 slides, which removes the watermark and unlocks MP4 export at up to 1440p. Narration is available in 20 languages, and the economics explainer video maker output can carry your own logo and brand colors. Whiteboard and motion videos can be made in 16:9 landscape or in 9:16 vertical for Shorts, Reels and TikTok. Since April 2026, more than 1,400 people have made over 2,800 videos with DistilBook, most of them from PDFs.

How does it work?
Pick the mechanism
Upload the chapter or report, paste an article link, or type the topic, like supply shocks or game theory basics. DistilBook plans a cause-and-effect scene sequence.
Sharpen the argument
Review the narration per scene, choosing the example that fits your audience, a household budget for a class or a market case for a newsletter.
Generate charts and scenes
Supply-demand curves, flows between actors, and simple charts are drawn for your specific story and revealed as the narration reaches each beat.
Publish the explainer
Export MP4 for class, YouTube, or a newsletter embed, or share the link. Regenerate with fresh figures when the data updates.

Who is this for?
Economics teachers and lecturers
Open each unit with a three minute mechanism video, then spend class time on discussion instead of re-drawing the same curves.
Finance and econ newsletters
Turn each issue into a faceless video for YouTube and social, doubling the mileage of writing you already produce.
Policy and research teams
Make report findings legible to non-specialists with short narrated explainers generated from the executive summary.
Frequently asked questions
Can an economics explainer video maker draw supply and demand curves?
Yes, curve shifts, flow diagrams between actors, and simple time-series charts are generated per scene from your material and revealed in sync with the narration.
Does it work from news articles?
Yes, paste a public article link and DistilBook builds the scene plan from it. The review step is where you adjust framing before anything renders.
Class or channel: which is it for?
Both, from the same source. Render a 16:9 MP4 for lectures and reuse the script for a channel version in a different visual style.
How much does one explainer cost?
Generation and preview are free, and rendering uses per-slide credits on plans from $20 per month, a few dollars per finished topic video.
