In the fast-moving world of content creation, tools that simplify your workflow aren’t just “nice to have” — they’re essential. Whether you’re a marketer, blogger, educator, or business owner, producing videos consistently can feel overwhelming. Scripts take time, editing takes even longer, and inspiration doesn’t always strike when you need it.
Pictory just dropped a new feature that solves all of that in seconds.
Introducing the brand-new Pictory Chrome Extension, a simple yet powerful tool that converts any open webpage into a ready-to-edit video with a single click. No complicated workflows. No rewriting scripts. No long editing sessions. Just instant video creation from the content you already have at your fingertips.
And the best part? The extension is 100% free to install and works with every Pictory plan.
Let’s break down exactly how it works — and why this may be one of the most useful AI-powered upgrades creators have seen in a long time.
Turn Any Webpage Into a Video in 3 Clicks
The magic of the new Pictory extension lies in its simplicity. Once you install it in your Chrome browser, you can transform any webpage — a blog post, landing page, article, tutorial, or even product page — into a structured video script and storyboard.
Here’s all you need to do:
1. Open any webpage you want to convert
Maybe it’s one of your blog posts, or maybe you’re inspired by something you’re reading. Whatever the webpage contains — text, headings, images — Pictory can analyze it.
2. Click the Pictory extension icon
Right there in your browser toolbar. No need to log in separately, copy/paste URLs, or launch multiple windows.
3. Instantly generate a video script
Pictory automatically scans the content, extracts the most meaningful insights, pulls visuals when relevant, and creates a structured video script for you. When it’s ready, the system launches a new “URL to Video” project inside your Pictory dashboard.
From there, you can:
- Add prompts to refine your content
- Edit or rewrite the script
- Choose visuals and brand settings
- Jump directly into Pictory’s storyboard editor
- Customize your video before exporting it
In other words, the extension handles the heavy lifting — you handle the creativity.
Why This Feature Matters for Creators and Businesses
Video content has officially taken over the digital world. Platforms like YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook reward video more than any other format. But most creators struggle with the same bottlenecks:
- Not enough time to script and edit videos
- Difficulty repurposing existing content into video form
- A lack of video-editing skills or software
- The need to create content faster to stay competitive
Pictory’s new Chrome extension solves all of this by letting you generate a video from content you already have — instantly.
Imagine:
- Turning every blog post into a YouTube video
- Repurposing articles into short social clips
- Converting your website’s FAQs into explainer videos
- Transforming product pages into promo videos
- Turning client case studies into visual content
- Creating educational modules from online resources
All with one click.
It’s not just efficient. It’s transformational.
Designed for Everyone — No Expertise Required
One of the most appealing parts of the extension is that it doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or a professional. You don’t need technical knowledge, editing experience, or advanced production tools.
Pictory’s AI handles the structure, script, and initial visuals.
You simply fine-tune and download.
Kate P., Pictory’s Customer Success Leader, makes it clear:
“If you need any help, reply to this email and I’ll get back to you asap! We can’t wait to see what you’ll create.”
This personal touch shows Pictory’s commitment to creators who want to produce more video content without learning an entirely new skill set.
Community Feedback Matters — And Pictory Wants to Hear From You
The product update ends with a refreshing note:

That level of transparency and willingness to improve is rare. Pictory is clearly shaping its platform based on real user needs — and this feature is a perfect example of that evolution.
