What makes ngram different?

What ngram does better

Plan first, generate second

Review the script and storyboard before rendering. Fix direction early, iterate fast, and know exactly what you're getting before ngram builds the video.

Professional screen recording editing

Turn raw screen recordings into polished walkthroughs automatically. ngram removes filler words, pauses, and mistakes, adds smart zoom, callouts, and step labels—no manual editing needed.

Built from your real assets

Start with text, images, PDFs, URLs, or screen recordings—your actual content, not just stock footage. ngram extracts what it needs and builds a coherent professional video from what you already have.

Multi-format export with captions

Export in 16:9, 9:16, and 1:1 with captions included. One video, optimized for YouTube, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Reels—perfect for customer-facing content and marketing.

Context-aware generation

Tell ngram your audience, goal, and channel. It adapts structure, pacing, and tone automatically—a product demo isn't a social clip, and ngram knows the difference.

What Pictory does better

Paste a blog URL or article text and get a video in minutes with automatic scene detection, stock visuals, and AI voiceover. Perfect for quickly repurposing written content into social videos.

Extensive stock media library

Large built-in library of stock footage, images, and music. Ideal when you don't have your own visuals and need ready-made content for quick video creation.

Hyper-realistic AI voices

Powered by ElevenLabs, Pictory offers highly natural AI voiceovers in multiple languages and accents. Great for narration-heavy content without recording yourself.
