Getting Started

Sign up for Video Recap AI and process your first anime or movie recap video.

This guide walks you through signing up and processing your first video with Video Recap AI.

Step 1: Create an Account

  1. Go to www.videorecapai.com and click Get Started
  2. Sign in with Google or create an account with email
  3. You'll land on your dashboard

Step 2: Choose a Plan

Video Recap AI is paid-only (no free trial). Choose a plan based on how many minutes you need per month:

PlanMonthly MinutesPrice
Creator60 min$20/month
Studio180 min$60/month

Minutes = total output duration processed, not upload length. A 20-minute recap uses 20 minutes of your quota.

Need more? Buy rollover top-ups anytime.

Step 3: Upload Your First Video

  1. From the dashboard, click New Video
  2. Upload your source video (anime episode, movie file, etc.)
  3. Enter a title for your project
  4. Configure options:
    • Copyright Protection: Enable to apply safe-editing patterns
    • Voice Style: Choose the AI voice for narration
  5. Click Start Processing

Processing time depends on video length. You'll see progress updates in real-time.

Step 4: Review Output

When processing completes, you'll receive:

  • Recap Script — Structured narrative text
  • Voiceover Audio — AI-generated narration (downloadable)
  • Clip Map — Timestamps mapping script segments to source video

Review the output, then export to your video editor for final assembly.

Step 5: Export and Edit

Download the voiceover and clip map, then import into your editor (Premiere, DaVinci, CapCut, etc.):

  1. Import your source video
  2. Import the voiceover audio
  3. Use the clip map to cut and arrange footage
  4. Add your own polish (transitions, graphics, music)
  5. Export and upload to your channel
