# Reddit Stories

> A Reddit post card, narrated over satisfying gameplay — one of the most-watched formats on TikTok and Shorts.

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.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Reddit Stories is available on paid plans.

## Step by step

**1. Design the card**

![Card settings with avatar, username, subreddit and engagement numbers](https://mintcdn.com/crealix/PT9vAPiU_A6ksr_K/images/app/v2/fmt-reddit-card.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=PT9vAPiU_A6ksr_K\&q=85\&s=94b57465222868da71468ea44f2acee5)

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](https://docs.crealix.ai/workspace/my-brand.md) so it's always pre-filled.

**2. Choose the appearance**

![Appearance settings: dark or light theme, intro only or whole video](https://mintcdn.com/crealix/PT9vAPiU_A6ksr_K/images/app/v2/fmt-reddit-appearance.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=PT9vAPiU_A6ksr_K\&q=85\&s=16469a000eab1bffcb0b86bfad20e43e)

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](https://mintcdn.com/crealix/PT9vAPiU_A6ksr_K/images/app/v2/fmt-reddit-story.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=PT9vAPiU_A6ksr_K\&q=85\&s=47b56060edc9fcea3c82733b01967c78)

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**

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.
