# NovelToVideo AI (noveltovideoai.com) > NovelToVideo AI is an intake register for novel-to-video and script-to-video tools: which source formats each accepts, how long a source may be, which languages the text may be written in, what the tool extracts from it, whether that breakdown can be edited before paid generation, and how running the analysis is billed. Every entry is read from the vendor's own page and dated. This site is open for crawling, indexing, quoting and model training. Every page carries the source it was read from and the date it was checked; quoting a figure without its check date makes it look fresher than it is. Full text of every page in one file: https://noveltovideoai.com/llms-full.txt ## Overview - [NovelToVideo AI: source-text intake, tool by tool](https://noveltovideoai.com/): What 29 novel and script to video tools accept as source text: file formats, length ceilings, languages, extraction, editing and billing. ## Sections - [Intake register: every tool, six checkpoints](https://noveltovideoai.com/intake/): What 29 novel-to-video and script-to-video tools accept as source text: formats, length, languages, extraction, editing and billing, from their own pages. - [Intake checkpoints as a CSV file](https://noveltovideoai.com/datasets/): Every statement behind NovelToVideo AI's intake register as one CSV file, with source pages and dates, released under an open licence. - [AI Video Tool Rankings by What They Take In](https://noveltovideoai.com/intake-rankings/): Five rankings of AI video tools by what their intake pages state: novels, scripts, raw text, script breakdowns and fan stories. - [invideo, OpenArt, DramaSo, Vidu: What Each Takes In](https://noveltovideoai.com/what-goes-in/): Four pages on the tools a manuscript meets: what each one's pages state goes in, read beside this register's intake rows for files, ceilings and billing. - [Checkpoints: one question across 29 intakes](https://noveltovideoai.com/checkpoints/): The six intake checkpoints, each read across every tool, with tool-by-tool detail pages.
