vidBoard

I am sorry to tell you this but the way this tool is promoted is misleading.

This is the first time I ever write a review on Appsumo but I felt compelled to do so, because this is the first time I'm a 100% dissatisfied with a tool I bought on Appsumo

I purchased Tier 2 (for context).

Yes, I know probably if I contacted support and have a 100 emails back and forth some of the issues may be solved but I expected something way better that what I got. That is why it's not worth the trouble of going through support. There are many better alternative AI video generation tools. The free plans of some tools are much better than the Tier 2 I purchased.

Let me list a few of the most important lacking features:

First of all, it is supposed to be an AI video creation tool, but there is a lot of manual work involved that wastes a lot of time. Also, the editing possibilites are rigid and very limited. A simple example: you have to select the voice for each slide seperately! Each slide is reset to the default voice and if you don't pay attention, your video will have different voices for the same Avatar.

There is no AI feature that adds relevant images or video clips according to text or voice. All images and clips have to be searched for or uploaded and added manually.

If you want to create a video from a template you cannot delete the slides in that template. You have to use them all.

The "create video from document" feature did't work for me at all.

AI script creates a max of 10 slides

You cannot change the length of a backgound video clip to match the length of the created voice. So, if the clip is 10 seconds and the voice is 20 seconds, the last 20 seconds will a still background.

You cannot add 2 video fragments and have them play after each other in the same slide.

You cannot easily delete any element on a template slide. You either use it as is or select a completely different backgrount.

Those are some of the shortcomings I faced within the first 30 minutes of using vidBoard.

Yes, I know this might be an MVP but with what is available in the market even an MVP has to match some better standards.

Yes it has Avatars, Yes you can convert text to ai voice for each slide and you can create some basic AI scripts for slides (not a full AI video script), but overall, in my opnion this tool is not a good functioning AI video creation tool.
