# Employee Onboarding Video Maker

Welcome videos, first-week walkthroughs and how-we-work explainers for new hires — from your own notes, narrated and captioned in a bright explainer look.

Canonical page: https://www.veedio.co/tools/employee-onboarding-video-maker
Search intent: An HR lead, people-ops manager or founder at a US or UK company who wants every new hire to get the same clear welcome, without booking a video team.

## What it produces

- 5 to 8 scenes, each with one spoken line and one generated frame
- A minute by default; 30, 60, 90 or 180 seconds are selectable in the composer (paid plans to 180s). Scene length comes from the narration's true duration
- ElevenLabs voiceover: 5 voices, narrating in any of 29 languages
- Word-timed captions burned in from the voice model's own character alignment
- A licensed music bed, ducked under the narration, loudness-normalised master
- 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9, 1080-class, no watermark on any plan

## Preset applied on this page

- Source type: prompt
- Voice: rachel
- Captions: highlight
- Music: uplifting
- Visual style: 3d
- Aspect ratio: 16:9

## The brief this page adds, verbatim

This string is prepended to whatever the visitor types before the scriptwriter
sees it — in the free preview on this page, in the video you generate after
clicking through to the composer, and in the API when you send
`preset: "employee-onboarding-video-maker"`. It is the only difference between this page and
the others.

> Write a short onboarding video for new employees. Speak to the new hire directly and warmly, explain one thing about how the company works — a process, a tool, a policy, the first week — in the order they will meet it, and close with who to ask. Use only the names, dates, tools, policies and benefits the user gives; never invent a benefit, an entitlement, a policy detail or a legal statement. Plain and friendly, no corporate jargon.

## Example inputs from the page

- Welcome to the team: what your first week looks like, from laptop pickup on Monday to your 30-day check-in
- How we use Slack: which channels matter, when to message directly, and why nobody expects replies after 6pm
- How time off works here: request it in the HR portal two weeks ahead, and your manager approves it

## Getting started

Pick a plan at /pricing and start creating today. The widget on the page runs the
real scriptwriter with this preset and returns the script, the per-scene image
prompts and the estimated runtime. Rendering the visuals, voiceover and final
file spends credits.

## How it works

1. **Type what they need to know** — A first-week schedule, a tool, a policy. Paste your notes with the real dates and names in them.
2. **Check the script** — HR reads it before anything renders, because a policy has to be said exactly right.
3. **Send it to every hire** — A 1080p file for your LMS, intranet or welcome email — the same welcome every time.

## The same welcome for every new hire

Most onboarding is a manager repeating the same twenty minutes to each new starter, or a handbook nobody finishes. Neither scales and neither is consistent: the hire who started in a busy week gets the short version. Short videos solve the consistency problem, because every new hire hears the same explanation of how time off works, which channels matter and what the first week looks like.

This makes those videos from your own notes: one topic each, a minute or two long, narrated and captioned in a bright illustrated look that suits explaining a process. Make the set once — welcome, first week, tools, time off, who to ask — and send it to every hire from then on, editing a line when a policy changes rather than reshooting anything.

## Policies said exactly as you wrote them

The scriptwriter does not know your handbook, your benefits or the law where your people work, and it is told never to invent a benefit, an entitlement or a policy detail. Type the real details — the portal, the notice period, the enrollment deadline — and the video says those, so a new hire is never told about a perk you do not offer.

Every script comes back for review before anything is rendered, so HR or legal can read it first. A video explains a policy; it does not replace the written policy, the signed contract or the handbook a new hire acknowledges, and the best onboarding videos end by pointing to them.

## What it is not: a course, or your CEO

It makes a video file, not a course: there are no quizzes, no SCORM package and no completion tracking. Download the 1080p MP4 and upload it to your LMS, intranet or shared drive, or play it from a laptop. If you need a course, these videos go inside it as the parts people actually watch.

On Pro and Studio, a presenter scene puts a lifelike AI avatar on screen speaking your script, lip-synced to the voice you picked. It is an AI presenter speaking your script, not your founder: there is no voice cloning and no way to put a real colleague on screen without filming them. For the personal welcome, film thirty seconds on a phone and let these carry the rest.

## Who it is for

- **HR and people teams** — One consistent welcome for every hire, edited in place when a policy changes.
- **Founders of growing companies** — Onboarding that no longer depends on you repeating it to every new starter.
- **Remote and hybrid teams** — The walkthrough a new hire would have had at a desk, sent to them before day one.
- **Franchise and multi-site operators** — The same standards explained the same way at every location.

## Compared with making it the usual way

| | The usual way | With Veedio |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Input | A slide deck, a kickoff call and a manager’s memory. | Your onboarding notes, one topic at a time. |
| Visuals | A screen recording of a slide deck, or a video crew for a day. | An illustrated scene per line, in one bright explainer look. |
| Voiceover | Book a VO artist, or record yourself and cut the breaths out. | Five ElevenLabs voices, re-recorded free whenever the line changes. |
| Captions | Auto-captions that drift, then an hour nudging keyframes. | Burned in from the voice model’s own word alignment, so they land on the syllable. |
| Turnaround | Weeks to schedule the shoot and the edit. | Minutes per video, ready before the next start date. |
| Changing it | A policy changes and the video is wrong until someone reshoots it. | Edit the line and only its voice is re-recorded, free. |

## FAQ

### Will it get our policies right?

Only the ones you type. It does not know your handbook, your benefits or employment law where you are, and it is told never to invent a benefit, an entitlement or a policy detail. HR should read every script before it renders.

### Can we upload it to our LMS?

It makes a video file, not a course: there are no quizzes, no SCORM package and no completion tracking. Download the 1080p MP4 and upload it to your LMS, intranet or shared drive, or play it from a laptop.

### Can our CEO appear in it?

Not as themselves. On Pro and Studio, a presenter scene puts a lifelike AI avatar on screen speaking your script, lip-synced to the voice you picked. There is no voice cloning, so a personal welcome from a real person should be filmed on a phone.

### Can I turn our existing handbook into videos?

Yes. The composer’s Script tab keeps your words and cuts them into scenes, and its Link tab reads a PDF you upload. This page’s brief applies only to the Prompt tab, so a pasted script is narrated as written.

### What does it cost?

Plans are monthly: Mini $7 (200 credits), Starter $19 (600 credits), Pro $49 (2,000 credits), Studio $149 (7,500 credits). A five-scene short in pictures costs 13 credits; with AI motion in every scene it costs 68. You see the price before you generate, and the first payment on any plan has a 7-day money-back guarantee. Starter ($19 a month, 600 credits) covers about 46 five-scene shorts in pictures, or about 8 with AI motion in every scene.

### Can it be in another language, or another accent?

Yes. The narration and captions can be in any of 29 languages, Spanish included, chosen in the composer. The 5 voices are American English. There is no British, Irish or Australian voice, and we would rather say so here than after you have paid.

### Do we own the videos?

You own the videos on every plan and can use them commercially, paid ads included. There is no watermark on any plan, the export is 1080p, and the music beds are licensed for commercial use with no attribution.

### Do I have to sign up to try this?

Yes, a free one. Signup takes a moment and needs no card. Once you are signed in, the box at the top writes the script and the shot list for no credits — that is the part that decides whether the video is worth making.

### What does it cost?

Starter is $19 a month for 600 credits, Pro $49, Studio $149. A credit is a unit of pipeline cost rather than a video, so a five-scene short costs less than a nine-scene one, and you see the estimate before you spend anything.

### Do I own the videos, and is there a watermark?

You own them, on every plan, and there is no watermark on any plan, no resolution cap and no platform withheld. Four things do follow the plan, because they are what a video costs to make: AI motion and sound effects need Starter, and a presenter avatar and the choice of video model need Pro. Everything else — every voice, every language, every caption style, every aspect ratio — is the same on all of them.
