Reddit Stories shows a realistic Reddit post card over background gameplay while a voice reads the story, with word-by-word captions. No AI visuals are generated, so it’s quick to make and you only pay for the voiceover. Best for: AITA, TIFU, revenge, relationship and horror stories — the classic “story over Subway Surfers” Short.
Reddit Stories is available on paid plans.

Step by step

1

Design the card

Card settings with avatar, username, subreddit and engagement numbers

① Username and subreddit · ② Randomize · ③ Engagement

  • Avatar — click the picture to upload your own.
  • Username (u/…) and Subreddit (r/…) — for example u/throwaway_8842 in r/AITAH.
  • Engagement — upvotes, comments, awards and how long ago it was posted. Type exact numbers or click Randomize for believable ones. Big numbers are shortened the way Reddit does it (14876 appears as 14.9K).
  • Verified — adds a checkmark next to the username.
Save your usual identity in My Brand so it’s always pre-filled.

Choose the appearance

Appearance settings: dark or light theme, intro only or whole video

① Theme · ② Card visibility

  • Theme — Dark or Light, like the Reddit app.
  • Card visibility — Intro only (the card fades out after the title is read, leaving the gameplay and captions) or Whole video (the card stays pinned for the whole video).
3

Choose format and language

9:16, 16:9 or 1:1, and the narration language. The duration follows the length of your story — up to 20 minutes.
4

Write the story

Story section with the post title, title suggestions and the body field

① Post title · ② Title ideas · ③ The story

  • Post title (①) — the hook, read first and shown on the card. Select a word to colour it or make it bold on the card. Click a suggestion (②) to start from a proven title.
  • Body (③) — exactly what the narrator reads, word for word, in the narration language you picked. Up to 17,500 characters. No story yet? Use the AI Script Writer to write one from a one-line idea.
5

Pick the background gameplay

Background gameplay library with ASMR, Trackmania, Subway Surfers and Soap Cutting

① Upload your own · ② The gameplay library

Choose from 176 clips — ASMR, Trackmania, Subway Surfers, soap cutting, satisfying videos, Rocket League, Roblox obby, Minecraft parkour, GTA, Fortnite, BeamNG Drive and more — pick Random, or Upload your own MP4 (up to 4 minutes and 200 MB). Short clips loop to cover long stories.
6

Voice, captions and music

Pick a narrator (with voice tuning), a caption style and optional music, then Create video.

Writing a story that holds attention

  • The title is the hook. Put the conflict in it: “AITA for telling my sister the truth about her fiancé at her engagement party?”
  • Get to the point in the first two sentences. Background can come later.
  • Keep paragraphs short — captions read better and the narrator breathes in the right places.
  • End with the verdict question or an update to drive comments: “So… AITA?”

Cost

You pay for the voiceover only. Rendering is charged later, when you export from the editor (or free in your browser).

Editing

The editor adds a Reddit panel to change the card, the text and the gameplay after generation.
