Video export is live: turn your carousels into vertical videos for Reels, TikTok and Shorts
Hey everyone,
Quick update from the build journey: we just shipped video export.
The idea came directly from our users. A lot of them were creating
great carousels for LinkedIn, then manually recreating the same
content as videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok or YouTube Shorts.
Same message, double the work.
So we built a way to skip that step. You pick any carousel you
already made, choose a format (9:16 vertical, 4:5 portrait, or 1:1
square), and the AI animates every slide into a silent video ready
to upload anywhere.
A few things worth knowing:
- It costs 15 credits per render
- Available on the Pro plan
- Works with every existing carousel, no need to recreate anything
We also shipped a wave of bug fixes alongside this release.
If you give it a try, I would really love your honest feedback. A
few things I am especially curious about:
- Does the animation feel natural or too robotic?
- Which format do you end up using the most?
- Anything that feels missing or broken?
Thanks for being part of this journey.

Really excited to hear what you think!
And feel free to share any other features or improvements you'd like to see on carousels-generator.com.

What's happening under the hood here. Template based motion or fully generated frame-by-frame animation?
Carousels Generator
@ryan_cooper9 Great question.
It's template-based motion, not frame-by-frame generation. The AI
doesn't render pixels, it picks motion patterns based on the slide
content (headline vs list vs image-heavy) and times them to the
text density.
We made that choice for three reasons:
- Speed (renders in seconds instead of minutes)
- Cost (so we could keep it at 15 credits per render instead of
pricing it out of reach)
- Predictability (no hallucinations, you get the same quality every
time)
Frame-by-frame generation is on the wishlist for a future "premium
render" mode, but I want to nail the basics first.
