Google Vids is a relatively new Google Workspace service that uses AI and Gemini to create videos and presentation from scratch. It’s intended to be a more practical alternative to other video-generation tools, prioritizing work and school applications such as presentations, slideshows, and other types of content delivery methods. Now, Google is expanding Vids’ AI capabilities with the ability to generate voiceovers, it announced this week.

After creating a video with Google Vids, the “Help me Create” feature made it possible to generate a voiceover script with AI. The latest update takes things a step further, using AI to narrate the previously-generated script. Google notes the following as benefits to using Help me Create to make AI voiceovers:

• “Eliminate the manual effort of recording ‘the perfect take'”
• “Gain easy access to a variety of voiceovers that provide you with professional-sounding video narration”
• “Save time matching voiceovers to scenes in your video with automatic audio to scene alignment”

After generating a sample script and AI voiceover, you can edit the script and voiceover with ease, so you aren’t locked into one generation. There are different tone and pitch options to choose from, as well as unique voices. The script and voiceover options will only appear through Help me Create after opening or creating a Google Vids project.
