Lyric video maker
Paste your lyrics, drop in your song, and export a synced lyric video — free, in your browser.
A lyric video should take an afternoon, not a video-editing course. Motion Text gives you a real timeline without the learning curve: import your track, paste the lyrics one line per row, and Auto-sync distributes every line across the song in one click. Waveform and beat markers show you exactly where each phrase lands, and every line stays draggable until it feels right.
When the timing is close, make it sing. Karaoke mode highlights each word as it plays, typewriter reveals lines word by word, and five text effects cover everything from soft fades to punchy pops. Apply a visual preset — Cinematic noir, Neon pulse, Dream haze — and the whole video picks up a consistent look: typography, colors, grain, and motion together.
Auto-sync in one click
Paste lyrics and distribute them across any time range instantly, then drag or trim any line with 0.1-second snapping.
Karaoke word highlights
Words light up as they are sung. Import word timings from LRC, or let Pro transcription time every word automatically.
Beat-aware timeline
Your audio is analyzed locally into a waveform with beat and phrase markers, so cuts land on the music.
Real MP4 export
Export a valid H.264 MP4 with AAC audio straight from Chrome or Edge — or queue a 4K server render with Pro.
One project, three formats
Create independent 16:9, 9:16, and 1:1 variants in one click for YouTube, Reels, and TikTok.
Questions
Is the lyric video maker really free?
Yes. The full editor, lyric auto-sync, karaoke effects, and browser MP4 export are free. Free exports carry a small watermark; Pro ($9/month) removes it and adds 1080p/4K server renders.
Do I need to download anything?
No. Motion Text runs entirely in your browser. Exports render locally with WebCodecs in current Chrome or Edge.
Can it sync lyrics to the music automatically?
Auto-sync spreads your lines evenly across any time range and beat markers help you fine-tune. Pro adds AI speech transcription that times every word to the audio for karaoke-accurate highlights.
What about copyrighted music?
You supply your own audio and are responsible for having rights to it. Motion Text never uploads your song anywhere for browser exports — rendering happens on your machine.
