Movie recap features built for creators
CinemaDigest turns any full-length film into a short, narrated, dramatic recap. Everything below runs on your machine — your source video never leaves your device.
Narrated, dramatic story recap
Not just a clip dump. The server-side Worker engine builds a tight dramatic arc, writes narration that matches the on-screen action, and returns a validated plan for local rendering.
- 2–3 minute recaps (1 to 5 minutes)
- Fast, Balanced, or Slow-burn pacing
- Action, Suspense, Thriller, Drama, Comedy, Mystery methods
- Optional "open with a hook" beat
Natural AI voiceover
Add a natural-sounding narrator in your language and voice of choice. Perspective options are Third person, First person, and Documentary; there is no second-person mode. Translate the narration into 10+ languages.
Accurate auto captions
Captions are burned locally with safe margins, resolution-aware sizing, and a two-line maximum. Choose Static cards or Kinetic word-by-word captions. Supported in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Arabic, and Hindi.
Multilingual recaps
Translate your recap's narration and captions into another language and export a fully localized video — perfect for reaching global audiences. See the multilingual guide.
Optional soundtrack
Add an optional background soundtrack or keep the original audio. Build share-ready videos that sound as good as they look.
Ready for TikTok, Reels & Shorts
Export in 16:9 landscape or 9:16, 4:5, and 1:1 portrait formats so your recap is share-ready for short-form platforms.
Batch processing & desktop app
Process multiple projects in a queue, use advanced scene relocation, and generate soundtracks — all in the Windows desktop app.
Desktop app
All recap creation runs in the desktop app with professional narration, animated captions, soundtrack, 4K output, and batch processing. Download for free.
Local-first & private
No 2–8 GB uploads. Transcription, narration, caption burning, and rendering happen locally. Structured transcript and visual evidence go to the Cloudflare Worker, which runs the private planning engine and returns only the validated clip plan.
