Make Better Videos with Our Script Timer

Video script writing can be tough, but even after you’re done writing your draft, there are other important details to keep in mind. How long will it take to read your script? How does your script length change if you’re a fast talker or a slow speaker?

Our script timer takes all the mystery out of video script writing. Plug your script into our easy-to-use tool and select your reading speed to discover your script’s length. When you know how long your script will be, you can make more informed decisions when creating your video. Try it out! Or if you’d like help writing your script, give the Vidyard AI Script Generator a try instead.
