Download the MP4 with a title, caption and hashtags ready to copy. Or queue up to 50 ideas at once and come back to a full library.
Your words, or ours. You approve every line.
AI scripts are a starting point, not a final cut. Before anything renders, you see the whole script scene by scene with the footage each scene will search for. Rewrite a line, swap the shot, add or drop a scene.
Already have a script? Paste it. TallyReel keeps your words exactly as written and only plans the footage, title and hashtags around them.

Questions
Will my Mac or PC warn me when I open it?
The first time, yes: TallyReel isn't signed with Apple's or Microsoft's paid certificates yet, so they ask you to confirm. It takes one click in Settings on a Mac or "Run anyway" on Windows. The install guide shows exactly where.
Does it work on Windows?
Yes. TallyReel runs on 64-bit Windows 10 and 11 as well as Macs with Apple silicon. One purchase, same features.
Can I use my own AI key instead?
Yes, and it's optional. TallyReel writes scripts on your computer for free, with no key and no metering. If you'd rather not download the 3 GB script model, or you want sharper writing and a faster machine, paste a key from Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek or OpenRouter in Settings — or point it at Ollama or LM Studio on your own network. You then pay that service directly, usually a few cents a video. Everything else — voices, captions, footage, rendering — still happens on your computer.
Can it make long YouTube videos?
Yes. Pick YouTube 16:9 and a length of 3, 5, 10 or 15 minutes. TallyReel researches the topic, outlines it into chapters, writes each one, and cuts between fresh footage every few seconds. You get the video, a thumbnail, and a description with chapter timestamps. A 10-minute video takes about 15 to 30 minutes on an M-series Mac, depending on its memory and what else is running.
Can it make podcasts or videos with a presenter?
Yes. Podcast mode writes a conversation between two AI hosts and shows them in a studio layout, cutting to footage when they describe something. Presenter mode has one host talking to camera. Hosts are made-up AI people with their own look and voice, and either can use your cloned voice. On an Apple silicon Mac you can switch on talking hosts, where their mouths move with what they say; it needs a one-time 3.7 GB download and adds roughly seven times the talking time to a render. On Windows the hosts are still pictures with captions and a live waveform.
Can it use my own voice?
Yes, on Mac and Windows. Record about a minute of yourself talking, read a short consent sentence, and TallyReel clones your voice on your computer. Your recordings never leave it. You can only clone your own voice, and every cloned clip carries an inaudible AI watermark. A graphics card or Apple silicon makes it much faster; on a PC without one, cloned narration takes a few minutes per video.
Do I need to be online?
Script writing, voices, captions, music and rendering all run on your computer. Finding stock footage needs an internet connection, and so does the optional AI-image mode.
How long does a video take?
On an M-series Mac, about a minute and a half for a 30–40 second video with stock footage: roughly 40 seconds to write the script and a minute to render. On a Windows PC, script writing takes one to three minutes depending on the processor. AI-image mode takes several minutes.
Can I use my own script?
Yes. Paste it in and TallyReel keeps every word as written. It splits it into scenes, plans footage for each one and writes a title, caption and hashtags. You can edit all of it before rendering.
What if the footage doesn't match?
Every scene shows the footage search it will use, and you can change it before rendering. Tell it "falcon diving" and that's what it looks for.
Where does the footage come from?
Pexels, a free stock video library. You'll need a free Pexels API key, which takes about a minute to get. Pexels videos are free to use under the Pexels license.
Can I use my own music?
Yes. Drop MP3, WAV or M4A files into your music folder and pick "My tracks". Or use one of the three music moods TallyReel composes for each video.
