How it works
The platform is built for content repurposing. A single article can become a LinkedIn video, a YouTube short, or a series of social clips, with brand colours, fonts, and watermarks applied automatically. An AI voiceover option adds narration without recording anything yourself.
Lumen5 suits marketers, small businesses, and creators who need video content regularly but do not have an editing team. The free plan is enough to test the workflow, while paid plans unlock higher resolution, more stock media, and brand kits.
