Scribe Animator

What Scribe Animator is

Scribe Animator is a browser-based editor for building whiteboard explanations from editable scenes and turning them into videos. Its desktop web editor records a browser tab, window, or screen in steps; each accepted step becomes a scene that can be edited. StoryBeats bring related objects, drawing steps, keyframes, camera keys, and optional narration together around one explanation.

For footage work, you can import a local video, trim it, freeze frames, then add annotations, drawings, and camera moves. ChatGPT or Gemini can produce project, scene, or reusable-block JSON for validated import. Compatible WebMCP clients can inspect and edit the visible project within its normal controls, permissions, and supported undo. Desktop local voiceover is available through Kokoro, Pocket, or Supertonic, with the chosen model downloaded on first use.

The Free plan costs nothing and includes unlimited exports up to 720p with a watermark, 200 MB cloud storage with an account, AI scene import, assets, templates, audio import, and local desktop AI voiceover. Pro exports are unlimited up to 1080p without a watermark and include 5 GB cloud storage and an SVG cloud library; its price loads in the billing flow, and there is no annual plan currently. Mobile Lite works on iOS, Android, and mobile web. You can try the editor and test exports without signing up; an account is needed to save projects, sync assets to the cloud, or use paid features.
