1. Getting started

Sign in with your email: a code is sent to you. The Dashboard is where you set up your brand once (business name, website, a short description, colours, a logo and photos) and then request videos.

The dashboard with the brand profile form and the 30-day notice
The dashboard: the notice about the 30 days is at the top, then your brand profile.
  1. Fill in your brand profile and press save.
  2. Upload your logo and up to 5 reference photos (give each photo a short name you can use with @ in your prompt).
  3. Choose a model, resolution, shape and length, write what you want to see, and press Generate video. The price is shown before you press it, and you are charged only after the video has been made and checked.

2. Choose a model and price

The Compare models page shows a sample from each model with its price per second, and what it can do.

Model comparison cards with prices, sound, reference photos and longest video
Each card lists the price at 720p and 1080p, whether the model makes sound, how many reference photos it takes and its longest video.

No photos? You can still make a video. Google Veo 3.1 and ByteDance Seedance 2.0 make video from your written description alone: leave every reference photo unticked. MiniMax H3 Max, Alibaba Wan 3.0 and the other reference-photo models also work with no photos ticked. LTX-2.3 and PixVerse V6 are the exceptions: each needs exactly one start photo. If you tick a photo on a text-only model, the form tells you and keeps the Generate video button off.

The Pricing page has tables that show how many videos each plan ($19, $29 or $49 of credit) makes with each model.

3. My videos and the 30-day rule

My videos lists every video with its player, details and the Download button. Publish a video to get a public link you can share.

My videos page with the highlighted Deleted on date
The highlighted Deleted on row shows the date the video is removed for good, and how many days are left.
Press Download as soon as a video is made. It is deleted 30 days after it was made unless you publish it: published videos are kept.

4. Uploaded videos (up to 10)

You can keep up to 10 uploaded videos per account. To upload more, delete old ones: open Edit a video, choose My uploaded videos, and press Delete (press it a second time to confirm). Uploaded videos are deleted 30 days after upload, and each shows its deletion date.

Edit a video page, My uploaded videos tab, with a Delete button
Your uploaded videos are listed by their real file name, with a Delete button.

5. The template editor

A template is a design that goes over a video: text, offer badges, pictures, bands, a logo, a QR code and cut-outs. Open Templates, choose a video from the menu at the top, and design on top of it.

The template editor with the video, elements, the timeline and the properties panel
Left: add elements. Middle: the video with your design and the timeline below. Right: the properties of the selected element.
  • The video menu lists your uploaded videos first, by file name, then the videos you made.
  • The template is saved automatically a moment after each change. You can also press Save template.
  • Zoom above the video makes the picture bigger or smaller. Hold Ctrl and turn the mouse wheel over the video to zoom too. Press Fit to go back.

6. Add text, offers and pictures

The Add element buttons

Press a button to add an element, then drag it on the video to move it and drag its corner to resize it. Each element can start and stop at chosen times. An element that runs to the end of the timeline stays until the end of the video.

Text style and angle

Select a text and its style window opens: font, bold, italic, size, colour and Angle, from −60 to +60 degrees. A positive angle tilts the text upwards to the right, a negative angle tilts it downwards to the right, in the preview and in the finished video.

Offer badges and brush styles

An offer can be a plain pill, a Brush stroke, a Two-colour brush (2 texts) or a Multi-colour badge of up to 3 bands. In two-colour and multi-colour offers the bands touch and work as one badge. Each band has its own text, colours, size and Band style (Brush 1, 2, 3 or Straight bar).

7. Cut-out: show the video in a shape

Press Cut-out. The video shows only inside the shape; a cover colour of your choice hides the rest. Choose the shape (rectangle, rounded, circle or oval, triangle, diamond, heart or star), drag it to move it and drag its corner to resize it.

A heart cut-out. Change the Cover colour in the properties panel.
A cut-out also hides each element below it in the layers list (except inside its window). Elements above it stay visible. Use the layer arrows to change the order.

8. Timeline, zoom and length

The timeline below the video has one lane for the video (with its trim handles), one for the video's own sound, one for the sound you added, and one bar for each element.

The timeline with zoom buttons and the video, video sound and added sound lanes
The − and + buttons zoom the timeline; Whole length shows the entire video again.
  • The timeline is as long as the video that will be made (after your trim or cut). Elements you add run for the whole video unless you shorten them.
  • Drag the ends of the blue Video (trim) bar to keep only part of the video. Tick Remove a section from the middle to cut a stretch out.
  • Drag a bar to move it, and drag its edges to change when it starts and stops. Hold Ctrl and turn the mouse wheel over the lanes to zoom.
  • Stacking order: the top line is in front and the bottom line is at the back. Drag a line by the dots at its left edge, up or down, to change which element is drawn over which. The layers list on the right works the same way.

9. Sound: video sound and added sound

The Audio row: choose a sound, volume, keep the video's own sound
  • Added sound: choose a file from My audio (or upload one). It appears as a green bar on its own line under the video sound. Drag the middle to move it and its ends to trim it, and press Delete to remove it.
  • Video sound: the video's own sound is drawn as a waveform. Drag its middle to move it earlier or later and its ends to trim it. A faint shadow shows where it was, and Reset video sound puts it back.
  • The Video sound box keeps or removes the video's own sound, in the preview and in the video you make.
  • Your audio files in My audio are never deleted automatically.

10. Indian languages and translation

All nine languages (Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, Gujarati, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam) work in the finished video, with the right font and correctly joined letters, even if a Latin font is selected. Long text wraps to its box like in the editor.

The Translate text panel on the left translates your English lines into the language you choose. Each translation that works costs the price shown in the panel, and nothing is charged if it fails. Press Add to template to put the translated text on the video.

11. Make the new video

  1. Choose the video and design your template.
  2. Press Make new video. The template is saved first, then the new video is made on the server (up to a few minutes: keep the page open).
  3. The new video appears in My videos. Your original video is kept. Download it straight away.

The picture is encoded at near-lossless quality. When a template draws nothing on the video and cuts nothing, the picture is passed through without being re-encoded.

12. Edit a video, step by step

Open Edit a video from the Create menu. Your original video is always kept, and every result is saved as a new video in My videos. Edits do not use credit.

Edit a video: step 1, choose a video, and step 2, add a template
Steps 1 and 2 of the Edit a video page.
  1. Choose a video (step 1). Press My generated videos or My uploaded videos, then click a video's card to select it. You can keep up to 10 uploaded videos; press Delete (twice, to confirm) to make room.
  2. Add a template (step 2), if you want one. Choose a saved template and press Make video with this template. To design a template or trim the video on a timeline, use the Templates page instead.
  3. Add audio (step 3), if you want it. Choose an MP3, WAV or M4A file (up to 20 MB) or one from My audio. Drag the sound along the video to choose where it starts, set the volume, and untick Keep the video's own sound to replace the original. Press Play selection to listen, then Add audio to video.
  4. Remix (step 4), if you want other shapes. Tick 9:16, 1:1 and/or 16:9, and the shorter cut if you want a half-length version, then press Make versions.
  5. Cut and join (step 5), if you want to trim or combine. Press Add the video from step 1, drag the ends of its piece to choose what it keeps, add pieces of other videos the same way, then press Make the cut. Pieces are joined in the order shown.
  6. Get your new video. When "Your new video is ready" appears, press Open My videos to play and download it, or Edit another to start again. Download it within 30 days.
You can use any one, or several, of steps 2 to 5. Each makes its own new video from the video you chose in step 1.

13. Froyla CloneVoice: features and settings

Clone your voice, or use an AI voice, and turn one photo into a lip-synced talking video. Open Froyla CloneVoice from the top menu, or go straight to its own address, clonevoice.froyla.com. It has its own pages and its own list of videos, and it uses the same account and the same credit as video.froyla.com. You sign in on each address separately.

What you can do

  • Clone your own voice from about a minute of recording. A live verification phrase makes sure it is your voice. Cloning is for paid accounts.
  • Use an AI voice (AI Female or AI Male) with no recording. Every account can.
  • 22 languages, including Hindi, Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Marathi, Gujarati, Punjabi and Kannada.
  • Three video styles: Expressive, Precise lip-sync, and Presenter (you describe the gestures, for example a teacher giving a lecture).
  • Write in English, speak another language: the Translate button in the Studio turns your English script into the language you chose.
  • Your photos and voices stay yours: rename or delete any of them at any time.
  • One Menu on every page: the Menu button at the top right opens Studio, My voices, My avatars, My videos, Usage help, Help and costs, Safety, and Froyla Reels.
  • Help on the page: Usage help walks you through your first video, Help and costs lists every charge and has a question box, and Safety and consent explains the rules. The complete help page is at clonevoice.froyla.com/audio/help.

Clone a voice, step by step

The first step of cloning a voice: a name, the Indian-language question with Yes selected, the recording language set to Malayalam, and the consent box ticked
Step 1 of cloning: the name, the Indian-language question, the language you will record in, and your consent.

This picture shows the older header with links across the top. Those links are now in the Menu button at the top right.

  1. Name your voice. Up to 60 characters. You can rename it later.
  2. Answer the Indian-language question. Yes makes your voice with our extended voice service, which speaks all 22 languages, Indian languages included. No uses the standard service, which speaks 13 languages and costs less to keep. You cannot change this later: a voice made with No cannot speak Indian languages, and you would train a new voice.
  3. Choose the language you will record in. The list shows the languages of the service you picked.
  4. Tick the consent box and press Continue to recording. Your browser asks once to use the microphone.
  5. Record at least 60 seconds. Read the paragraphs on screen. English and Spanish have ready-made paragraphs; in other languages, read any text aloud. Each recording is checked, and the page tells you what to fix (too quiet, too noisy, clipped or too fast).
  6. Read the verification phrase exactly as shown, including the five-digit code. It proves the voice is yours.
  7. Press Train. The price is shown first and is taken from your credit. After a minute or two the voice shows Ready on My voices.

Writing in English for another language

The Studio speaks your script exactly as you type it, in the language you choose. It does not translate on its own.

  1. Type your script in English in the script box.
  2. Choose the language you want the video in.
  3. Press "Translate my English into ..." under the script box. The button shows the price first. The button is hidden when the language is English.
  4. Read the translation. It replaces the text in the box. It is a machine translation, so read it and fix anything before you render. Back to my English puts your English text back.
Up to 900 characters and 12 sentences can be translated at a time. Translated text is often longer than English: if it goes over the limit for your video option, shorten it or choose Precise lip-sync.

Video optionExpressive, Precise lip-sync, or Presenter (gestures)Expressive moves the head, face and hands, for up to 29 seconds of speech. Precise lip-sync keeps the photo as it is, matches the lips very closely, and takes longer scripts. Presenter shows a box where you describe how the person moves (gestures, posture, a lecture style; no walking), for up to 59 seconds. Currently Expressive costs $0.21 per second, Precise lip-sync $0.20 and Presenter $0.24.
Script lengthFollows the video optionThe character limit under the script box changes with the option. The Studio counts about 15 characters per second of speech and keeps a little room spare, so Expressive allows about 390 characters.

The Help and costs page: a table of every charge, what triggers it and the amount
Help and costs lists every charge. The amounts in this picture were current when the guide was written; the page always shows today's.
What it costs. Credit is bought with one-time payments; nothing is charged to your card automatically. You pay for the video (per second, set by the video option: currently $0.21 for Expressive and $0.20 for Precise lip-sync), the speech (currently $0.15 per 1,000 characters for standard voices and $0.30 for ElevenLabs voices, which speak the Indian languages), once for training your own voice (which includes the first 90 days of keeping it), then a small monthly fee for each cloned voice from your credit. A translation is a separate charge, taken only when you press Translate. The Studio shows the exact price before you render, and every charge is listed on the Help and costs page (clonevoice.froyla.com/audio/help).
Every Froyla CloneVoice video carries a note inside the file that says it is AI-generated, and usually a small label on the picture. Please do not hide or remove it.
