DistilBook is a whiteboard video maker without the timeline: type what the video should cover or upload a document, approve the script, and it draws and narrates every scene in a hand-drawn style. Where library-based tools have you assemble clip-art by hand, here the artwork is generated for your exact content, with a first scene ready in about 6 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 whiteboard 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.

Narration is drafted scene by scene and paused for your edits before generation starts.
Watch it draw
Original ink illustrations draw themselves on in sync with the voiceover, scene by scene, with color washes completing each element.

Frequently asked questions
What is the easiest way to make a whiteboard video?
Type your topic into DistilBook or upload a document. The AI writes the script, draws the scenes, and narrates the result. There is no asset library to search and no timeline to arrange; the whole video is generated for your content.
How is this different from Doodly or VideoScribe?
Those tools give you a library of pre-made images you drag onto a canvas and time by hand. DistilBook generates original artwork for your script and syncs everything automatically, which changes the work from hours of assembly to minutes of review.
Can I make videos in languages other than English?
Yes, narration supports 20 languages, and the drawn text on slides follows your content's language.
Do I own the videos?
Yes. Videos you generate are yours to publish and use commercially, on any plan.
What is the best whiteboard video maker?
For drawing every scene yourself with full manual control, VideoScribe is the long-standing choice. For a whiteboard video made from a document, notes or a script, with the narration written for you and the art drawn for your content, DistilBook is the faster route, from $20 a month with your logo included. For character-led cartoon stories, Vyond or Powtoon suit better.
