What Steve AI Offers

Steve AI turns scripts into animated and live-action videos using AI-driven scene matching and stock media. Paste a script, pick an animation style (cartoon, whiteboard, etc.), get a video. It's popular for educational content, explainer videos, and quick internal presentations. Output is primarily animated though, with no AI-generated photorealistic video. Editing after generation is basic, there's no developer API, and the visual styles can start looking samey across creators.
