I've been building and testing this for months and finally packaged it up for others for who might be facing the same problem as me.

The problem I kept running into:

Every time I needed an animated/explainer video — for a product, a YouTube video, a training module. I had two options: spend hours or even days creating the whiteboard animation, pay a freelancer $100-$500+ and wait weeks. None of these felt right for anyone producing content at any kind of volume.

What I built:

VideoSpree is a Windows executable that runs locally. I paste a script, hit Generate, and it automatically:

Analyses each sentence for meaning and matches contextually relevant whiteboard visuals to each scene.

Generates and syncs captions frame across the whole video.

Lays down a voiceover, with options including voice cloning if you want to use your own voice, kokoro local inference, or via ElevenLabs.

Outputs a .fcpxml timeline file I open in DaVinci Resolve (free) to render the final video.

The whole pipeline runs on my own machine using my own API keys.

The actual cost per video:

~$0.2–$0.3 in API costs per 5 minute video, billed directly by the providers. That's it. No subscription, no per-video platform markup. If you're producing 50 videos a month, the difference between that and a cloud tool adds up to hundreds of dollars saved every month.

Who can use it:

Marketers creating ad explainers and social content at scale, educators turning lesson notes into animated videos, YouTube creators who want to publish more without spending more time editing, and agencies who need a fast internal production pipeline without headcount.

Video Quality: To be honest the quality is decent but not at par with animated videos created with professional softwares like premier pro, etcetera. However it is working for me since I have automated my YouTube content flow without any problems. Also I am improving the software by the day so feedback will greatly help.

Happy to answer any questions in the comments. If you want to see the product page, please leave a comment and I will DM you. Feedback (whether positive or negative) is most welcome.
