Wideo is a template-driven video maker that pairs a drag-and-drop editor with AI tools for scripting, voiceover, and translation, aimed at anyone who needs a polished branded video without hiring an animator or editor. Pick from more than 300 templates, drop in your own text, images, and brand colors, or generate a full first draft from a URL, product description, or prompt and refine it from there.
Wideo runs on a free plan plus three paid tiers — Basic, Pro, and Pro+ — billed monthly or annually, with the entry paid tier starting at $19 a month on the annual plan.
What is Wideo?
Wideo sits in the video-editing category and is positioned as an alternative to Powtoon, aimed at marketers, marketing agencies, and solopreneurs who need to produce video content regularly without a dedicated video team. The company behind Wideo is a bootstrapped startup based in Buenos Aires, Argentina, founded in December 2012, and the product has been substantially rebuilt in recent years, according to the founders.
The problem it targets is the gap between wanting video content and having the time or skill to produce it well: explainer videos, social ads, and onboarding clips all take real production time by hand, and generic stock-video tools don’t carry a brand’s voice or message. Wideo’s answer is templates plus AI generation, so a first draft comes together in minutes rather than a full production cycle.
Key features
300+ customizable templates
Choose from a library spanning marketing, social, sales, and onboarding use cases, then drag and drop text, images, and brand colors into any scene without touching a timeline, and export as MP4 or publish directly to YouTube, Facebook, or HubSpot.

AI scripts, voiceovers, and translation
Generate a script and voiceover from a URL, product description, or plain-text prompt, and translate the finished video into 40+ languages with AI — the founders note voiceovers have since been expanded to 50+ languages — so localizing a video no longer means a separate production run.
Workflow automation
Automate variable text, images, and colors across a batch of videos to personalize content at scale, convert Shopify pages, blog posts, and social threads directly into video, and pull AI-generated performance reports from the same dashboard.
Turn any website into a video ad
Enter a URL and Wideo pulls the page’s marketing content to generate a complete video ad automatically, or produce a personalized AI sales video for an individual lead, with an AI avatar available to deliver the message on-screen without a camera.
Plans and pricing
Wideo’s four tiers scale primarily on monthly AI credits, download volume, and maximum video length, with unbranded exports, YouTube uploads, free stock media and music, and the AI script and translation tools included starting at Basic.
| Plan | Price | Billing | Key limits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | — | Branded videos, 1-minute max, 10 templates |
| Basic | $59/mo ($19/mo billed annually) | Monthly or annual | 10 HD downloads/month, 1.5-minute videos, 33 templates |
| Pro | $99/mo ($39/mo billed annually) | Monthly or annual | Unlimited Full HD downloads, 10-minute videos, full template gallery |
| Pro+ | $199/mo ($79/mo billed annually) | Monthly or annual | Unlimited Full HD downloads, 30-minute videos, 3 additional seats, Zapier automation (50 videos/month) |
Additional team seats are available from $59/user/year, and custom Business and Enterprise plans are available on request.
Who it’s best for — and who should skip it
Wideo fits marketers, agencies, and solopreneurs who need to turn out branded video content on a recurring basis — social ads, onboarding clips, product explainers — and would rather start from a template and an AI script than an empty timeline. The URL-to-video-ad and Shopify/blog conversion tools are particularly useful for anyone repurposing existing marketing copy into video without a separate production step.
It’s a weaker fit for anyone chasing a cutting-edge visual style: reviewers note the template library and overall interface can feel more functional than flashy next to newer AI video tools, so buyers who want their output to look distinctly modern should watch a few template previews before committing to higher tiers.
What users say
Wideo holds a 4.9-out-of-5 rating from 33 user reviews. Feedback praises its user-friendly interface, extensive template library, and fast video creation, while flagging dated templates and an aging interface as the main area for improvement.
Founder Fernando_Wideo replies directly to reviewer feedback, acknowledging UX and template concerns and committing to keep refreshing the library and interface — consistent with co-founder Agus Esperon’s note about a rebuilt editor and faster rendering as part of the company’s ongoing product work.
Price and value
At $19 a month billed annually, Wideo’s Basic plan undercuts what a typical monthly AI video or animation subscription costs for comparable scripting and voiceover tools. Agencies or anyone producing longer videos regularly will want Pro or Pro+ for unlimited downloads and longer runtimes; solo marketers testing the AI-script workflow can reasonably start at Basic.
Verdict
Wideo’s AI scripting, voiceover, and translation tools meaningfully speed up branded video production, and the founders are visibly working through buyer feedback on templates and UX — making this a reasonable pick for anyone who needs video output more than cutting-edge design.
