Screen Recording to Explainer Video
Send Okou your Screen Studio recording — it understands what's on screen, writes the script, generates a HeyGen digital-human presenter to explain the concepts, and narrates the walkthrough with an ElevenLabs voiceover, edited into a finished explainer video.
What is an AI video producer?
An AI video producer turns raw footage into a finished, edited video — understanding what's in the recording, writing the script, adding an on-camera presenter, and narrating it. Okou works as your AI video producer across HeyGen, ElevenLabs, and Google Drive: it watches your Screen Studio recording, writes the script, generates a HeyGen digital-human presenter to explain the concepts, and narrates the walkthrough with an ElevenLabs voiceover — a shareable explainer video in one pass instead of an afternoon in an editor.
Why turning a screen recording into an explainer takes an afternoon
You've recorded a clean Screen Studio walkthrough of a new feature. To turn it into something shareable you still need to explain the concept up front, write and record narration, add a presenter, and edit it all together — a full afternoon per video. You'd rather hand Okou the recording and get back a finished explainer.

Okou vs. hiring an editor vs. template video tools
Turning a screen recording into a presenter-led explainer usually means a freelance editor or a stiff template tool. Okou runs the whole production from the recording itself — script, presenter, narration, and final cut.
Editor or agency
You send the recording, brief a freelancer or agency, wait on a script, a presenter, and a rough cut, then round-trip revisions. Highest control, but days of turnaround and real cost per video.
Template video tools
Drag-and-drop tools give you a layout and stock avatars, but you still write the script, record the narration, add the presenter, and line everything up yourself. They speed up assembly, not production.
Okou's video production workflow
Okou watches your recording, writes the script, generates the HeyGen presenter, narrates the walkthrough with ElevenLabs, and renders the final cut. On-demand and routine runs use the same workflow.
Tips for better results
Frequently asked questions
How do I turn a screen recording into an explainer video?
Send Okou your Screen Studio recording via Google Drive and connect HeyGen and ElevenLabs. Okou watches the recording, writes a script, generates an on-camera HeyGen digital-human presenter to explain the concepts, narrates the walkthrough with an ElevenLabs voiceover, and edits the finished explainer — then saves it back to your folder.
Can Okou write the video script from my recording?
Yes. Okou understands what's happening in your Screen Studio recording and writes a script from it — the concept explanation the presenter delivers and the narration that runs over the walkthrough. Ask it to adjust the tone or length and it rewrites and re-renders.
Can Okou make a talking-head presenter video?
Yes. Okou generates a HeyGen digital-human presenter that explains the key concepts and sets up the walkthrough, then edits those segments together with your narrated screen recording.
How does Okou combine a HeyGen presenter with a Screen Studio recording?
Okou opens with the HeyGen digital-human presenter explaining the concept, then cuts to your Screen Studio walkthrough narrated with an ElevenLabs voiceover, adds transitions, and unifies the audio into one clean cut.
Which tools does the video workflow need?
HeyGen, ElevenLabs, and Google Drive: HeyGen generates the digital-human presenter, ElevenLabs generates the voiceover, and Google Drive supplies your Screen Studio recording and stores the finished video. Screen Studio is your own screen recorder — Okou works from the file you export to Drive.
Can Okou produce an explainer for every feature release?
Yes. Set up a routine so that whenever you drop a new Screen Studio recording in a Google Drive folder, Okou scripts it, generates the presenter, narrates the walkthrough, and edits a finished explainer video. The same workflow runs on demand or on a schedule.
