Pictory analyses your script or article and automatically highlights some keywords from the text to pick visuals relevant to your script.

Auto highlight keyword is on by default so you will always need to toggle it off if you don't want AI to automatically select keywords for you.

However, if you want to manually select your keywords yourself or you simply want to disable the function, here's how you can turn it off:

For Script-to-video

  1. On the homepage, click the 'Script to video' button to proceed.

2. From the text input window where you can either copy and paste your text or type it out, on the top right-hand corner of your script editor, go to ‘Scene settings” and then toggle off “Auto highlight keywords” from the drop-down menu.

3. You can then use the highlight icon to manually highlight the words or blocks of text you want AI to focus on for visual selection.

For Article to Video

  1. On the homepage, click the 'Article to video' button

2. This action will display a pop-up where you will see an input field to enter the URL of the article. Enter the URL and click 'Generate video' to proceed.

3. After you’ve pasted the link to your source article, on the next window, in the top right-hand corner of the screen, above the AI-powered summary layout, go to ‘Scene settings' and then toggle off 'Auto highlight keywords” from the drop-down menu.

You can follow the same steps to turn it back on.
