WatchRecap

The idea goes in. A film comes out.

A narrated film from a paper, your app, or a single topic. Script, voice, picture, and music, cut to the frame.

Free to start — 30 seconds a month. If a film fails, the seconds come back.

0:15“After 1998 the paved area doubled, and runoff followed it.”

Start from what you have.

Each kind is its own pipeline: its own script, voice, and picture. Pick one and the form follows.

Explainer

Starts with a PDF, a link, or a note

WatchRecap reads the source, drafts a script, and lays it out as a storyboard. Flag any beat that strays and it rewrites. Nothing animates until you approve, then the voice is recorded and each shot is drawn to match.

  • Storyboard you approve
  • 30 s to 3 min
  • 5 styles
  • Voice and music

Try: A 12-page flooding paper, back as 30 seconds.

Promo

Starts with your app's link

WatchRecap opens your app in a real browser — you sign in once — captures the screens worth showing, and cuts them into a short film with voiceover and music. What the viewer sees is the product itself.

  • Real screen capture
  • 30 or 60 s
  • 5 styles
  • Voice and music

Try: Your dashboard, back as a 30-second launch film.

Cinematic

Starts with a topic

Type a history or a story and WatchRecap writes a chaptered film around it, then records one continuous narration across the chapters. There is no source document and no storyboard, so treat on-screen facts as illustrative.

  • Chaptered film
  • 30 s to 3 min
  • One continuous voice
  • Music bed

Try: “How the Bay Area grew,” back as a 60-second history.

Start a cinematic

Every film gets the full finish.

Written to be spoken

Short sentences, timed read-aloud. The script sets the clock and the picture follows it.

A voice, recorded

Human-paced narration: one line per shot, or one story running across chapters.

Music underneath

An original bed for each film, ducked under the voice so the words stay clear.

Pictures with a source

Charts, maps, and type drawn from your document, cited when there is something to cite.

Your frame, your length

16:9, 9:16, or 1:1. Thirty seconds to three minutes.

Seconds back if it fails

A failed render refunds the attempt. Revisions follow your plan.

Start free.
