Record talking-head videos without needing a script. Maki asks questions that adapt to what you say, then helps you choose your strongest takes and export a captioned video. Your first three videos are free, with no subscription required to try. MakiRoll is a different kind of camera for talking-head video. Instead of staring at yourself while recording, you see questions and cues from Maki. Tell Maki what you want to talk about. It guides the conversation, follows what you say, and helps you develop the rough idea already in your head. No script to memorize. No perfect take to nail. You just talk. When you're done, MakiRoll finds your strongest takes and helps shape them into a short, captioned video ready to share. Or don't share it. Posting is optional. HOW IT WORKS 1. Start with a rough idea You don't need to know exactly what you're going to say. A sentence is enough. 2. Have a conversation Maki asks questions and adapts to what you've just said. You see questions and cues that adapt to what you say, instead of staring at yourself. 3. Stumble all you want Lose your train of thought. Rephrase something. Ramble a little. MakiRoll records the conversation so you don't have to nail one perfect take. 4. Find the good stuff MakiRoll analyzes what you said and identifies the strongest parts worth keeping, and automatically cuts the silence. 5. You have the final say Rearrange, trim and approve the suggested video. Edit and style your captions and export when you're ready. BUILD A VIDEO RECORDING HABIT Set a weekly recording goal, and let Maki help you follow through with friendly nudges. Then add the Home Screen widget to keep track of your progress. FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO MAKE VIDEO — BUT DON'T Maybe you hate seeing yourself on camera. Maybe you know what you want to say until the camera starts recording. Maybe you ramble without a script and sound unnatural with one. Maybe perfectionism turns every video into twenty takes. Maybe you simply keep telling yourself you'll start making video someday. MakiRoll was made for that gap. You don't need to become a presenter first. You don't need camera confidence first. You get better by practising. BECOME SOMEONE WHO MAKES VIDEO MakiRoll isn't here to make you perfect on camera. It's here to make it easier to start. Make one video. Then another. See what happens. YOUR FIRST THREE VIDEOS ARE FREE Make three videos with MakiRoll for free and see whether this way of recording works for you. No subscription is required to try it. Then choose a plan if you want to keep going. Terms of Service https://www.makiroll.app/terms Privacy Policy https://www.makiroll.app/privacy Support https://www.makiroll.app/support
