Batch Video Generation: Create Multiple Videos at Once
Learn how to select multiple assets and generate a batch of videos simultaneously, saving time and maximizing your content output.
Why Batch Generate?
Creating one video at a time works fine for testing, but when you're ready to build a content calendar, batch generation is a game-changer. Select multiple assets, configure your settings once, and generate an entire batch of unique videos in one go.
How Batch Generation Works
Step 1: Select Multiple Assets
On the asset selection screen, tap multiple images instead of just one. Each selected asset will become its own video with a unique AI-generated script. You'll see a count of how many assets you've selected.
Step 2: Configure Once
Choose your voice and content category. These settings apply to all videos in the batch. Every video will use the same voice and content type, but the AI writes a completely unique script for each image.
Step 3: Generate All
Hit Generate and all your videos enter the queue. They'll each take about 1-2 minutes to process. You can navigate away from the Create tab — your videos will keep generating in the background.
Step 4: Review in My Reels
As each video finishes, it appears in your My Reels tab. Videos that are still generating show a pulsing animation. You'll see them update in real-time as they complete.
Batch Generation Strategies
Content Calendar Batching
Generate a week's worth of content in one sitting:
- Select 7 different assets (one per day)
- Choose your brand's primary voice
- Generate the batch
- Download and schedule across the week
Voice Testing Batches
Test different voices with the same content type:
- Select one asset
- Generate with Voice A
- Generate the same asset again with Voice B
- Compare the results and post both — let engagement data pick the winner
Multi-Platform Batching
Generate variations for different platforms:
- Create a batch with one content style for TikTok
- Create another batch with a slightly different tone for Instagram Reels
- Use the AI-generated captions and hashtags, which are already optimized per platform
Credits and Batch Size
Each video in a batch costs one credit. Make sure you have enough credits before generating a large batch. Check your credit balance in the top-right corner of the app.
You can purchase credits in packs — the more you buy, the lower the per-video cost. See Pricing for current rates.
Tips for Better Batches
- Vary your images — Different assets in the same batch produce more diverse content
- Keep batches under 10 — This keeps review manageable and ensures quality
- Review before posting — AI is good but not perfect. Always watch each video before posting
