One prompt, a finished video with narration and captions, and the same character in every scene from the first shot to the last.

Zebracat vs ClipNova: an honest comparison.

The switch, explained properly.

ClipNova is a long-form AI video generator that makes finished videos up to 5 minutes with consistent characters. Zebracat calls itself an AI video agent for social media growth: it plans, creates and schedules posts, draws on a stock library and AI models, and offers avatars and digital twins for presenter videos. For a brand feed, that mix works well.

For a story channel, the footage has to belong to the story. ClipNova generates every scene for your script and keeps your characters the same: add one with a picture and a name and it looks the same in scene one and scene ten. Series turns it into a show with a cast of up to 8 characters, episodes written from a short idea and story memory of the last 5 episodes. Narration runs in 18 languages, or switch to talking characters with lip sync (AI Video only).

Length is not tied to the plan. Videos of up to 5 minutes are open on every ClipNova plan, from Hobby at $19/mo (1,000 credits), exported at up to 1080p in 9:16, 16:9 or 1:1. If one scene misses, regenerate only that scene in Studio. Every plan includes commercial rights.
