Lumen5 is an online video maker built around templates. You paste in a blog post, a script or a short idea, and it splits the text into scenes, suggests stock footage and adds animations and an AI voice.
Businesses use it to repurpose articles into videos for LinkedIn, Facebook and YouTube, while agencies use brand kits to keep colours and fonts consistent. Higher plans add voice cloning and access to large stock libraries.
The free plan allows 5 videos a month, up to 2 minutes each, with a Lumen5 outro. Paid plans billed yearly are Basic at $19 a month, Starter at $59 and Pro at $149, plus a custom Team plan. Monthly billing costs more; yearly saves about 25%.
It runs in the browser. Paid plans need an international card.
