Scribe, a free tool

Turn words or sketches into a hand-drawn video.

Paste code or text, or draw your own sketch. Scribe replays every stroke with the Todrawn pen and exports a whiteboard animation for your shorts, docs or slides.

How it works

1. Create

Paste code or text, upload a file, or sketch directly with a mouse, finger or pen.

2. Watch

The Todrawn pen writes your words or replays your drawing stroke by stroke at a consistent pace.

3. Download

Sign in and export the animation at 720p or 1080p, 24 or 30 fps, vertical or wide. Rendering still happens in your browser.

What is this?

Scribe is a free tool by Todrawn that turns code, text or your own freehand sketch into a whiteboard animation. A virtual pen writes or redraws the work stroke by stroke, making it handy for shorts and reels, tutorials, slides and docs. Composing, playback and video encoding all happen in your browser. Sign in to download: Free includes 2 exports per UTC day, resetting at 00:00 UTC, while Premium exports are unlimited.

Questions

Is it really free?

Yes. Scribe's editor and preview are free without an account. Downloading requires a free account, which includes 2 exports per UTC day, resetting at 00:00 UTC; Premium accounts can export without limits.

Does my work leave my computer?

No. Your code, text and drawing stay in your browser, and the animation and video are generated locally. When you export, Todrawn stores only the fact of the export: its format and duration.

What video formats do I get?

MP4 in browsers with WebCodecs support, WebM otherwise. Choose 720p or 1080p, 24 or 30 fps, vertical 9:16 or wide 16:9.

Why is there a small todrawn.com mark?

FREE exports carry a small hand-drawn todrawn.com wordmark in the corner. PREMIUM and lifetime exports have no watermark; every preview stays clean.
