Frequently asked questions

Is it really free?

Yes — completely free. No credit card, no trial period, no watermark. Create an account and start generating videos immediately.

What video format do I get?

You get a 1280×720 MP4 with H.264 encoding — the standard format accepted by YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn.

Can I make a video about a specific dish or menu item?

Yes — write a short script about the dish, its ingredients, or the story behind it, and generate a video for that item specifically.

Will the video show my actual food or restaurant?

No — this uses matched stock footage rather than footage of your specific dishes, so it works best for storytelling and educational content rather than literal menu shots.

Can I use this for event or special promotion announcements?

Yes — write the announcement as your script and it becomes a shareable captioned video for social media.
