DistilBook converts a PDF into a finished explainer video in one automated pipeline: text extraction, script writing, slide illustration, and AI voiceover. The first narrated slide is playable about 3 minutes after upload, and the video is assembled slide by slide while you watch.

How does it work?
Upload the PDF
Reports, guides, textbooks, and scanned documents all work. Scanned pages are read with OCR automatically, so even image-only PDFs convert.
Approve the narration
The AI condenses the PDF into a per-slide script and pauses for your review. A 40 page report typically distills into 8 to 12 slides.
Watch it build
Each slide gets custom 2K artwork, an AI voiceover, and synced draw-on animations. Slides appear progressively, so you are never staring at a spinner.
Export or share
Download the MP4 in up to 1440p or publish a shareable link. Subtitles are generated from the narration automatically.

Who is this for?
Learning and development teams
Policy PDFs and training manuals become watchable onboarding videos. Employees retain more from 4 minutes of video than 40 pages of text.
Students and researchers
Turn dense reading material into revision videos. Upload the PDF before a commute and listen to the material as a narrated lecture.
Consultants and agencies
Deliver client reports as videos. The same PDF you send by email becomes a branded explainer your client actually opens.
Frequently asked questions
How do I turn a PDF into a video with audio?
Upload the PDF to DistilBook, review the auto-written narration, and approve it. The system generates slides and an AI voiceover for each one, then merges them into a single video with audio and subtitles. No editing software is involved.
How large can the PDF be?
Long documents are fine. The AI summarizes the content into at most 12 slides, so a 100 page PDF becomes a focused video rather than a 100 slide slog.
Does it work with scanned PDFs?
Yes. Pages with little or no selectable text are run through OCR automatically before script writing.
Will the video keep my charts and figures?
Figures from the PDF inform the slide artwork, and you can place specific images into any slide with the built-in editor before rendering.
What does it cost?
Generating and previewing is free. Rendering the MP4 requires a plan starting at $15 per month, with credits charged per slide, so a typical video costs a predictable amount.
