PDF to Video: slides, voiceover, and MP4 output
The AI converts your PDF into a presentation video: real slides built from your content, narrated by a natural AI voice, with clean transitions. The result is a standard MP4 that plays on YouTube, LinkedIn, email, and any LMS.
Your content, not a generic template
Instead of pasting your PDF into a video template, the AI reads the document and writes the slides and narration from it. Headings, key points, and structure carry over, so the video actually reflects your material.
Safe and secure processing
At SlideSpeak, we prioritize data security and privacy above all else. Your PDF is encrypted in transit and at rest, processed on secure servers, and never shared with third parties.
AI narration, voices, and languages
Choose from 50+ natural AI voices in 20+ languages, or clone your own voice. Edit the narration script line by line before you export, so the voiceover says exactly what you want.
