Choosing the Right Workflow

🧭 Choosing the Right Workflow


Each Atlabs workflow is built around a different starting point. Choosing the right one upfront saves time and credits, you won't need to redo work or switch mid-project. Use the table to find your match, then read the short description below it.


Workflow

Start from

Best for

Idea / Text to Video

A topic or one sentence

Fastest start; new users

Script to Video

A written script

Branded content, storytelling, education

Music Video

A song or audio file

Artists, music promo, kids rhyme videos, audio-first content

Animated Video

A text prompt

Kids content, anime, explainer animation

UGC Avatar Video

A character + script

Talking-head ads, no camera needed

Clone Product Ads

A reference ad or product image

E-commerce, product launches, marketing



Here's a quick guide to help you decide:


  • Idea / Text to Video is the best choice if you have a topic or rough idea but no script. Just type a sentence or phrase, set your style preferences, and Atlabs handles everything - script, visuals, voiceover, and motion. This is the fastest workflow and the best starting point for new users.
  • Script to Video is designed for when you already have a written script or want more control over the narrative. It walks you through a 3-step wizard (Script β†’ Style β†’ Cast) and produces videos with consistent characters across all scenes. Ideal for branded content, storytelling, and educational videos.
  • Music Video works best when you're starting from an audio file. Upload your song, Atlabs transcribes the lyrics, and each lyric section becomes a scene with matching visuals. Great for artists, music promoters, and audio-first content.
  • UGC Avatar Video creates realistic talking-head videos using AI avatars. You define a character and script, and Atlabs generates a video of that character delivering your lines. No camera or recording setup needed.
  • Clone Product Ads is the most credit-efficient workflow. Upload a product photo, pick a template, and Atlabs creates a polished ad video. Best for e-commerce, product launches, and marketing teams.




πŸ’‘Tip:

Not sure which to pick? Start with an idea to Video for your first project. Once you're familiar with how the storyboard and editor work, try Script to Video for more control or UGC Product Ads for marketing content.
