Overview
Speedpaint is an AI-powered image-to-sketch-video generator that transforms static images into hand-drawn whiteboard animations. By uploading a photo, illustration, or logo, users can watch it get re-drawn stroke by stroke in minutes. Speedpaint requires no design skills or software installation, executing all rendering directly in the browser.
Key Features
- Automatic Line-Art Extraction: Powered by neural line-art models, the platform automatically traces outlines from uploaded images, handling busy backgrounds without requiring manual tracing.
- Customizable Hand Styles: Choose from four realistic drawing hand styles (Realistic, Dark tone, Child, Fountain pen) or select "No hand" for a pure digital draw-in effect.
- Coloring Modes: Animate the return of color using methods like Hand paint, Contour wipe, Block fill, or Fade in.
- High-Definition Exports: Render sketch videos at up to 1080p resolution in landscape, vertical, or square formats. Outputs can be downloaded as MP4 videos or looping GIFs.
- SVG Compatibility: Native SVG support allows the AI to skip line-art extraction, delivering crisp, precise logo animations.
Use Cases
- Content Creators: Enhance YouTube intros, TikTok edits, or social media posts with engaging drawing-timelapse hooks.

How does Speedpaint differ from traditional whiteboard software?
Traditional software relies on timeline editors and pre-made stock libraries, requiring hours to set up and manually trace custom assets. Speedpaint automates the entire process in minutes using your own uploaded image.
Can I use the generated videos commercially?
Yes, all paid plans (Starter, Pro, and Studio) include a commercial license covering client work, ads, monetized channels, and course content.
Can I remove the watermark from the videos?
Yes. Watermarks are only applied on the Free plan. Upgrading to any paid tier exports clean, watermark-free videos.
How long does it take to render a sketch video?
A typical video is ready to preview and download in 3 to 5 minutes.
