Code to Video
Code to Video is an AgentReel tool that writes a whole video from a short brief. AI builds the layout, the type, the colors and every motion as animation code, checks preview stills against your brief, and renders a silent 1080p MP4 in 9:16, 16:9 or 1:1. Use it when none of the AI Video Templates fits the video you have in mind.
Is it free? Writing the video, the preview stills and your changes cost 0 credits: 3 drafts a day before your first purchase and 30 a day after it. The render costs 15 credits for any length from 10 to 30 seconds. Code to Video counts as a template render, so a registered free account can pay for it with daily check-in credits.
Quick answers
What is Code to Video?
Code to Video turns a description into a finished motion video. You describe the scenes, the text and the mood, and AI writes the video as code that the renderer plays frame by frame. You are not limited to the shapes of a template.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. Describe the video in plain words and ask for changes the same way, for example "make the second scene slower". The code is there for people who want to change a value by hand, and the render uses exactly the code you see.
Can free check-in credits pay for it?
Yes. A registered account can pay the 15 credit render with free check-in credits, so you can try Code to Video from start to finish without a purchase. Guests cannot use Code to Video.
Does the video have sound?
No. Code to Video renders a silent MP4. Add music or a voice in your own editor, or pick an AI video template, which offers narration, music and captions as paid add-ons.
What you can make
- A custom intro, a kinetic headline or a layout that no template covers.
- A product teaser with feature cards that slide in and a final logo, in your brand colors.
- An explainer with animated steps, arrows, timelines and simple charts.
- A quote, a list or an announcement as a short vertical video for TikTok, Reels and Shorts.
- A 3D logo, a formula that draws itself or a physics drop, from a fixed list of animation libraries.
How it works
- Open the tool. Go to Code to Video and sign in.
- Write the brief. Say what appears on screen, in which order, how long each part takes and which mood and colors you want. Up to 2000 characters.
- Add images (optional). Add up to 4 images from your uploads or your AI images, and say in the brief where they go.
- Pick the frame and length. Choose 9:16, 16:9 or 1:1, and 10, 15, 20 or 30 seconds.
- Watch the code appear. AI writes the scenes and one animation timeline that moves everything on screen.
- Check the preview. The real renderer takes 4 stills. AI compares them with your brief and fixes cut-off text, bad contrast or a broken scene before you see the result.
- Change it. Type a change in plain words, up to 600 characters, or edit the code by hand.
- Render. Render the MP4 for 15 credits. The video is saved in My Works.

Tips for better results
- Describe the scenes in order. "Dark background, the headline types in, three cards slide up, end on the logo" works better than "make a cool promo".
- Give the real facts. AI uses only the facts in your brief and never invents prices, statistics or customer names.
- Name the mood and colors. Calm and minimal, bold and fast, your brand blue.
- Pick a template when one fits. Templates are faster for a promo, a chart or a chat story, and they offer narration and music.
FAQ
How long can the video be?
10, 15, 20 or 30 seconds. Every length costs the same 15 credit render.
Can I use my own images?
Yes. Add up to 4 images from your uploads or your AI images.
What happens when code breaks a rule?
Every piece of code passes a safety check before it renders. When code loads something outside the allowlist, the tool names the problem and AI rewrites it.
What if a render fails?
The credits of a failed render come back automatically, and you can render again.
Where is my video saved?
Every render is saved in My Works, where you can download and share it.
