Turn a PDF Into a Short Video
Upload a PDF of lecture notes, a study guide, or a short document, and get back a video built for a quick, scroll-paced watch instead of a re-read. It works entirely in your browser. No account is needed to generate the preview.
What you get:
- A short vertical video generated from the text in your PDF
- AI narration read over the script, with captions synced to the audio
- no watermark on any recording or export
- A file you can save to your ScreenApp account and download from there
How to Convert a PDF to Brainrot
- Upload your PDF: Drop a PDF into the tool above. The tool reads PDF files; it does not accept Word documents or plain text files.
- Let the AI write and narrate it: ScreenApp extracts the text, rewrites it into a short script, and generates AI narration with captions timed to the audio.
- Save and download: Preview the video, then save it to your ScreenApp account to download or share.
Clean, well-formatted text converts better than a scanned or image-heavy PDF, since the tool works from the text it can extract. See how we measure accuracy.

Who Uses PDF to Brainrot
Students convert dense lecture notes or a study guide into a short video they can watch on their phone between classes instead of re-reading a PDF.
Visual and audio learners get the same material as narration with on-screen captions, which suits a different way of taking in information than a wall of text.
Content creators use the tool to turn a written outline or a script draft into a quick vertical video draft to review before producing a full version.
Study groups convert a shared PDF once and send the video around, so everyone reviews the same material in the same format.
Tutors and teachers turn a handout into a short video their students can watch as a recap after class.
