Everything you need to turn a screen recording or a slide deck into a narrated video. Browse a topic below, or jump straight in with the Quickstart.
Getting started
- IntroductionScreenDub turns a screen recording or a slide deck into a narrated video. It writes the script, voices it naturally, and renders the finished file for you.
- QuickstartA step-by-step guide from sign up to a finished narrated video. Most first videos take ten to fifteen minutes, and most of that is ScreenDub working, not you.
- Projects & dashboardYour dashboard lists every video you make as a project in one place. Learn how to find, open, rename, and manage your ScreenDub projects.
Screen recording
- Recording your screenRecord your screen right in the browser with nothing to install. ScreenDub then writes narration that matches what happens on screen.
- Editing your recordingCut mistakes, crop the frame, and blur anything private before your recording is uploaded. Clean it up here and it never leaves your computer.
- The Chrome extensionThe ScreenDub Recorder extension records a browser tab and tracks your cursor, which is what makes automatic zoom possible in the editor.
- Personalizing your narrationSet a few details before the script is written so your video sounds like you, not a generic voiceover. Save them as defaults to skip the repeat.
- Recording tipsA clean, steady screen capture gives the script more to work with. These tips help you record well the first time for a better narrated video.
PPT to Video
- Uploading a deckPPT to Video turns a slide deck you already have into a narrated video. Upload the deck and ScreenDub reads and narrates the slides for you.
- Slide-by-slide narrationAfter you upload a deck, ScreenDub narrates it slide by slide into a single video, with each slide voiced and timed for you.
Script & voice
- Script stylesA script style sets the tone of your narration, from a polished demo to a calm tutorial. It changes the delivery, not the facts.
- Choosing a voice & accentThe voice reads your script aloud and you control how it sounds. Preview any voice and accent before you commit, and change it at any time.
- Corrections & re-narrationFix narration without redoing the whole video. ScreenDub splits each video into segments so you edit one at a time and only that part changes.
- DefaultsDefaults pre-fill every new project so you do not repeat yourself. Set them once, and still override any default on a single video.
- Translating narrationTranslate your narration into another language so one recording or deck becomes a video for many markets. Titles and captions move with it.
Editing your video
- The editorThe editor is where you review and refine a video. Open any project from your dashboard and everything for that video lives in one place.
- AI PresenterAdd a short AI-generated talking-head introduction to a product video, preview it, and choose whether to use it before you export.
- Customizing the lookBackgrounds, padding, corners, shadows, crop, captions, titles, and branding. Every look-and-feel setting lives in the Customize panel and previews live.
- Auto zoom & click effectsAuto zoom moves a virtual camera across your recording, pushing in where you work and pulling back when you move on. No keyframes to set.
- Background musicAdd background music that plays softly under the narration for the whole video. Good music adds polish without getting in the way.
- Titles & chaptersChapters break a video into parts, each lined up with a segment. Pick a design that styles the opening title, the chapter titles, and the closing card as a set.
- CaptionsCaptions are the on-screen text of your narration, timed to the audio word by word. Pick a style, highlight the spoken word, and choose how to export them.
- Regenerating a videoRegenerating rebuilds your video from the same recording or deck with a fresh script. You do not record or upload again.
Sharing & export
- Guided documentationTurn the same project into a written step-by-step guide, with a screenshot and an instruction for each step, and download it as a PDF.
- Exporting & renderingExport renders your edited project into a finished video, right in your browser. The result is a standard MP4 that plays anywhere.
- Downloading your videoYour finished video is a standard MP4. Download it, with subtitles alongside if you want them, and put it wherever it needs to go.
