Questions, answered.

A video where nobody appears on camera: the story is told with narration, animation and on-screen text. Many of the biggest history, science, finance and sports channels work this way.

No. You can go from a topic to a finished video without touching a timeline. The editor is there when you want more control.

Minutes of your time instead of days. Claude writes and builds while you watch, then your Mac makes the file: in our tests a one-minute 3D video was ready in under three minutes on a MacBook Pro, and simpler 2D styles are quicker.

Many channels do, but results are never certain. Earnings depend on your niche, your audience and how consistently you post, and platforms have their own entry rules (YouTube needs 1,000 subscribers plus 4,000 watch hours or 10 million Shorts views). The calculator on this page shows illustrative ranges, not promises.

Two plans: Creator at $69 a month for solo creators, and Studio at $129 a month for agencies, client work and many channels. One freelance-edited video costs about $120, so the plan pays for itself with your first video. Pay annually and get two months free. Cancel any time.
