Pictory AI Reviews & Product Details - Page 6

Fundamentally, you don't really have to edit. Just paste in your transcript, make a few clicks and it MAGICALLY makes the video with AI voiceover! Oh and it can transcribe text FROM an uploaded video and you can edit that video by deleting words from the text! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It needs better AI voices, like from Google or Microsoft. But apparently, that's in the roadmap! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pictory is very easy to use. UI/UX are clean and minimal with almost no learning curve to get started right away. The A.I. to create a video from text or blog on the go is very handy. However, some fine tunning is necessary since depending on the content being created, the recommended images or video may not be suitable. Nonetheless, it is easy enough to find other recommended alternatives, or replacing it ourselves with what we want to upload. What I like most is the ability to edit video by text and the transcription with great accuracy. This is a real time saver for me, and I think it is the strong point of this tool for my use case.

- A.I. are still not that great in term of selecting appropiated media. But this could be the limitation of the stock available. Some topics get good selections while some get unusable ones.

-Text-to-Speech voices are still limited but usable. Anyway, more options in the future would be welcomed.

- More languages please. As of now, it is very accuracy for English, but it please add Thai also.

- The text editing options are very basic.

- No team function for collaboration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Provides features similar to Descript. You can edit a video by deleting words from the transcription of the video!

- Stock footage avaialble and is used by the AI, which smartly selects the approrpriate stock footage to match your video script.

- Ability to quickly create shorter snippets of a long video by the AI automating what it thinks are the highlights of the video and generating just those parts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- It does take a bit of time to render the videos so I hope to see a bit of a speed improvement or optimization in this area.

- There are some bugs and glitches here and there that I'm sure can be ironed out with time. My uploaded videos don't show up in the preview - although it is visible in the final downloaded version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Able to convert long-form written content into video quickly. Create trailers from my longer videos. Access to licensed video content which can be easily added to my projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limited to one brand colour selection for the account but I think this will change as the software develops further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pictory is brilliant for putting together video projects with the power of AI. I love the story editor, the automatic voice overs, the stock videos and the music! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The things that I've disliked I've been able to bring up to the creators and they take action on! For example, I wanted to have shorter pauses in the voice over between scenes. Within a few days they launched a new release updating this! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy of use, for sure. And also the amount of time saved in creating videos at scale. Once we have multiple options, we can edit the scenes and customize them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lack of high-quality video stock footage options for the Article to Video feature Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pictory UI is very intuitive. I was able to quickly jump in and use the Article to Video module for my existing blog posts. The Ai b-roll video selection isn't the best but the ability to perform a refined search for a replacement video was easy.

The additional tweaking necessary to create a usable video still requires less time than having to manually go to a stock video website, download the asset, then import to a video editing program, and then match it with a specific sentence.

The edit videos with voice using text feature is fantastic. The ability to quickly edit out all the filler words is fantastic. The cut is a little abrupt, but it's better than hearing the filler word. I was also able to trim down an existing video asset to include only highlights at record time. Before, I had to remember certain sections of the video to cut. Now, I can quickly skim through the script and highlight the key talking points in the video and voilà, done and done. I love it.

Inability to use pre-recorded voiceover for all slides. (I currently have to use another text to speech software for each slide) this just takes too long. I ended up just using Pictory text to speech voice out of frustration. At least there is one usable voice that doesn't sound too robotic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The developers are really in tune with the users; they actually anticipate needs before we ask. This product delivers more than I ever imagined. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't think of anything right now, but when I do, I'll pass it along to developer Abid Mohammed, and he will be all over it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Pictory does a lot of things really well. I have replaced several items of software because Pictory does them in one package. As an example, I can edit my videos based on voice, I can create videos based on a script, I can also create videos based on existing blog content. All of these use cases help me pair down my monthly subscriptions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I need more ease of use when it comes to editing the subtitles created by the script to video. I would also like voiceover for the entire video, and not simply on a scene-by-scene basis (but this is highly appreciated). Finally, any ways to speed up my workflow would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pictory is an innovative product. I was able to create a course video in a few minutes with the script we had for the course video.

What could be improved?

💡Text editing is quite basic. This needs a little attention.

💡Limited ability to format text, change colors, change fonts and line spacing.

💡Limited ability to customize templates. Give us a bit more power to customize.

💡It would be great to have us highlight keywords for AI to pick up scenes/stock videos.

💡Ability to keep the TTS in audio but should not be on video display if we choose to.

💡Ability to at least have your assistant or a couple of team members to do the job for/with you.

💡Sharing passwords is a no-no! Make it easy for us to collaborate please.

💡It would be great to have a video player online for the link rather than just allowing us to download it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
