About Golpo
Golpo AI is the world's best platform to create fully produced whiteboard explainer videos from just a prompt or document. Instead of hiring an agency, you simply input a prompt or document explaining what you want, and in minutes you get a whiteboard explainer video in a style similar to Khan Academy or RSA Animate. After creation, you have the ability to edit all aspects of the video with just prompts. It's perfect for training, faceless YouTube, marketing, technical, and educational videos — any video where understanding is important. Trusted by over 170,000 users as of July '26, Golpo features include but are not limited to: 1) Convert your narration into an explainer video (with your narration as audio and the video time aligned) 2) Input your document or prompt. Document can be of virtually any format or type (text, audio, video etc.) 3) Script-to-video with matching audio 4) Videos up to 10 minutes 5) 50+ languages 6) dead-simple editing after generation 7) Insert your own videos and images into the generation, used as-is without alteration. 8) 10+ visuals styles, including pen in hand, voice cloning, vertical video, custom branding and more! API access available.
