Free AI book trailer generator

What free actually gets you

Your first video, generated from your own manuscript, at no cost and with no card on file. Not a watermarked sample and not a template preview: the real thing, downloadable and postable. If you want more than that, plans start at EUR 49 a month and you can cancel whenever you like.

Built for the feed, not for YouTube

The classic two-minute cinematic book trailer mostly failed because it was made for the wrong platform. Pharos generates short vertical clips sized for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, where book discovery actually happens, and every one carries a tracking link so you can see which clip sent readers to your buy page.

No prompts, no stock footage

You do not describe a scene and you do not pick from a stock library. Pharos reads the manuscript, chooses the moment most likely to stop a scroll, and generates footage for it. Free trailer generators that hand you a template still leave you doing the creative work.

Frequently asked questions

Is the book trailer generator really free?

Yes. Your first video is included free with no credit card required. You do need a free account so the video can be generated against your manuscript and saved for you to download.

Do I need to sign up?

Yes, a free account is required, but no payment details are. Generating video costs real money per clip, so the account is what ties a generation to a person rather than a way to collect a card.

How long does it take?

Upload the manuscript and Pharos extracts its moments, then generates your scene. You get a finished, postable vertical video without opening an editor.

What file types can I upload?

PDF, EPUB or DOCX, or you can simply paste a scene if you would rather not upload a whole manuscript to try it.

Can I use the video commercially?

Yes. The videos are yours to post and use for marketing your book. Your manuscript is used only to generate your own content and is never used to train general-purpose AI models.
