StrokeTale

Social and YouTube

YouTube thumbnails made with your video

When your video is ready, StrokeTale offers three thumbnails at 1280 × 720: a picture from your video, a title of two to five big words and your brand colour. Edit the words and download PNG or JPG.

How it works

Free account. You approve the script before any picture is drawn.

For YouTube creators

Thumbnail: Why bread rises, big title over a Soft 3D baker.

What you get

Made for this kind of video.

  • Big, readable titles

    Two to five words, sized to fill their space and outlined to read on any phone.

  • No clickbait, no invented numbers

    Titles may only use figures you gave. You can add facts you stand behind.

  • Your brand

    Your brand colour and logo from the Brand kit.

  • Shorts covers too

    A 9:16 cover for Shorts as well as the 16:9 thumbnail.

How it works

Three steps. No timeline.

Real screens from the app. Nothing is drawn, and nothing is paid, until you approve the script.

  1. The Topic step in StrokeTale: a topic typed in, the formats, the shape and the length.

    Tell us what to make

    Type a topic, paste your notes or a script, and pick the kind of video. Every setting can change later.

  2. Approve the script, free

    Read every scene and change it in plain words. Nothing is drawn, and nothing is paid, until you say yes.

  3. The StrokeTale editor: the drawn scene, the Director chat for changes in plain words, and the scene timeline.

    Watch it come to life

    Pictures, voice, captions and music arrive scene by scene. Change any scene by chatting, then download your MP4.

You stay in control

Nothing happens without your say.

You read the script before anything is drawn, change one scene by asking, and step back with Undo. Anything that uses credits shows its price first.

  • Approve the script first

    Edit any line, or ask for a new version. Scripts and revisions are free; pictures wait for your yes.

  • Change a scene by chatting

    Say what you want in plain words. Only that scene is redrawn, and scene edits are free.

  • Undo anything

    Every change can be undone, and your project saves itself as you go. Exports show their price before you confirm.

Questions

Straight answers.

Do thumbnails cost extra?

Options and downloads are free. A new picture of your main character for the thumbnail is optional and shows its price first.

How much control do I have?

All of it. You approve the script before anything is drawn, choose the look, hand, voice and music, and can change any scene, line or setting afterwards.

Can I edit after the video is made?

Yes. Ask the Director in plain words, or edit the words, pictures, figures, charts, captions and timing yourself. Only what you change is redone, and scene edits are free.

Who owns the videos I make?

You keep all rights in what you put in, and we give you all the rights we have in your videos, so you can publish them, including commercially, within our terms. Some countries don't protect AI-made material by copyright.

Is my content private?

Yes. Your projects are private unless you share them. We don't sell your data or use your content to train AI models, and you can download your data or delete your account at any time.

What if the AI gets something wrong?

You read every script first, and the review flags figures your source didn't give. If a picture misses, redraw just that scene, free.
