How to make AI videos that don't invent facts
AutoVideoStudio treats every sentence with a number or a name as a claim and matches it to the source the script cites. If the number is different or the claim isn't in the source, the video pauses until you fix the line or confirm you checked it. The sources (S1, S2…) and footage credits go into the YouTube description, so viewers can check them too.

Who this is for
News explainers, education channels and media teams who can't afford a wrong number in a published video.
Steps
- 1. Create a free account
Sign up with your name, email and a password. No card. Your first 3 months are free with every feature unlocked, and onboarding makes a 1-minute sample video straight away so you see the whole pipeline.
- 2. Write the brief
On New video, type the topic in one line and pick the format (documentary or explainer) and the length (any length from 1 to 60 minutes). Choose 16:9 for YouTube or 9:16 for Shorts, and add the audience and tone if you want.
- 3. Let it research and write
We read the top Wikipedia articles for your topic and number them S1, S2, S3… The script is written by our own AI on Surge's servers, and every scene lists the sources it uses.
- 4. Fix what the fact-check flags
Every sentence with a number or a name is matched to its source. If a number is wrong or a claim isn't in the sources, the video pauses. Edit the line, or confirm you checked it, and the render continues.
- 5. Review the scenes
Every shot shows a relevance score against its narration. Swap a weak shot, re-search a scene, upload your own clip, or type a change such as “caption style karaoke”. Only what changed re-renders.
- 6. Download and post
Download the 720p MP4, the vertical Shorts, two thumbnails, and the title, description (with chapters, sources and credits) and tags. Upload them to your channel yourself — direct upload is coming soon.

Tips
- Open the Fact-check tab to see each claim, the source it was matched to, and whether it passed.
- Numbers written as words (“thirty-five kilometres”) are matched to digits (“35 km”), so they don't false-alarm.
- Turning on the AI judge adds a second check that must quote evidence from the source.
- “Render anyway” is there for lines you checked yourself — use it knowingly.
When AutoVideoStudio is not the right tool
AutoVideoStudio is not the right tool for breaking news: research reads Wikipedia, which lags behind events. The check also only proves a line matches its source; if the source is wrong, the line is wrong too.
Questions
What counts as a claim?
Any sentence with a number or a proper name. Each is matched to the source the scene cites.
Does it block the video?
Yes, a wrong number or an unsupported claim pauses the render until you edit or approve it.
Are the sources shown to viewers?
The description lists the sources and the footage credits.
