Your idea deserves to be seen… while it's being drawn.

Spetch turns your images and text into whiteboard videos, drawn by a real hand, stroke by stroke.

Most whiteboard apps simply wipe text onto the screen. Spetch writes it, the way your hand does: in any language, in any font on your computer, even Arabic, joined and right to left. Bring any image: a logo, a chart, a photo. Spetch draws it in front of you, and you control the order and timing of every stroke. Plus a library of hundreds of ready-made illustrations. And it's not a slideshow. It's a real editor: keyframes, thirty reveal transitions, particle effects, video layers, and a multi-track audio timeline. Export up to 4K, landscape for YouTube or vertical for Reels, and upload straight to your channel. Spetch runs on your computer, even offline, and your projects stay yours.

For Arabic — and every language

Whiteboard videos that write Arabic the way a hand does.

Spetch writes every letter stroke by stroke — joined, right to left, dots last — and draws any image you bring, not only a stock library. Animate it on a real timeline and export up to 4K. Pay once; it runs on your computer.

What makes Spetch different

1

Handwriting — not a wipe

Text isn't uncovered by a brush sweeping across it. Spetch finds the centreline of every letter and writes it with the pen, in the script's own direction: Arabic, Persian and Urdu right to left with the letters joined and dots and marks added last; Hindi with its headline last; Chinese and Japanese top to bottom. Any font on your computer works, and characters it lacks fall back automatically.

2

Your images, drawn

Drop in a photo, a logo, a chart or a sketch: Spetch traces it into strokes and draws it line by line — and you decide the stroke order and timing. The built-in library is a head start, not a limit.

3

A real editor, not a slideshow

Keyframe position, scale, rotation and opacity. Reveal a picture through a video — an ink drop spreading to uncover it. 30 reveal transitions, particle effects, video layers, masks and blend modes, and a multi-track audio timeline with trimming, splitting and ripple delete.

4

Yours to keep

A desktop app for Windows and Mac. Projects stay on your computer, it works offline, and export renders on your own machine — no credits, no queue, no upload — frame for frame what you see in the preview, up to 4K, in landscape, vertical or square. Pro is a single payment, not a subscription.

Before you choose a whiteboard app, check

Spetch does all of these.

  • Writes Arabic stroke by stroke — joined, right to left — instead of wiping it on
  • Draws images you bring, not only the ones it ships with
  • Lets you set the order and timing of every stroke
  • Exports up to 4K, including vertical video for Shorts and Reels
  • Follows your narration: import the script (TXT, SRT or VTT) and see each line as it plays
  • Works offline and keeps your projects on your computer
  • Costs one payment, not a monthly subscription

What's new in v0.12.0

Spetch v0.12.0 adds transitions between scenes, a gallery of scene backgrounds, and colour images that are drawn the way an artist would: the black lines first, then the shading, then each colour.

Scene transitions

  • Ten transitions between scenes: page turn, 3D page curl, fade, slide, push, wipe, circle, zoom out, zoom through and spin. Pick one per scene, with its direction and duration.
  • Page curl folds the page back from the bottom-right or bottom-left corner, showing the paper's back with shading and a drop shadow.
  • The previous scene's last frame leaves over the new one, in the preview and in the exported video.
  • A transition gets its own time. Setting one moves the scene's layers later by its duration and lengthens the scene, so the drawing starts once the transition is over. New layers start after it too.

Colour images drawn dark to light

  • In Color mode the hand inks the dark lines first, then the grays, then each colour, from darker to lighter, colouring each area in with back-and-forth strokes.
  • No more drawing over empty space: the pen only goes where it uncovers something new, and lifts over areas that are already drawn or have nothing to show.
  • Library images start in Color mode (Despeckle 20, Colors 4), so they draw in full colour right away. Images imported from disk keep the Binary default.

Backgrounds and library

  • Background gallery: pick a scene background from a set of ready-made images.
  • The library opens at once and loads its thumbnails in parallel, with a progress bar.
  • New starter images and a new Illustration style 01 collection.
  • Importing an image or library item is faster.

Other changes

  • These installers are unsigned: Windows SmartScreen warns on first run, and on a Mac the first launch needs right-click → Open.

الجديد في الإصدار 0.12.0

يضيف Spetch 0.12.0 انتقالات بين المشاهد، ومعرضاً لخلفيات المشاهد، وصوراً ملوّنة تُرسم كما يرسمها الفنان: الخطوط السوداء أولاً، ثم الظلال، ثم كل لون.

الانتقالات بين المشاهد

  • عشرة انتقالات بين المشاهد: قلب الصفحة، وطيّ الصفحة ثلاثي الأبعاد، والتلاشي، والانزلاق، والدفع، والمسح، والدائرة، والتصغير، والتكبير عبر المشهد، والدوران. اختر انتقالاً لكل مشهد مع اتجاهه ومدّته.
  • طيّ الصفحة يثني الصفحة من الزاوية اليمنى السفلى أو اليسرى السفلى، فيظهر ظهر الورقة مع تظليل وظلّ.
  • يغادر آخر إطار من المشهد السابق فوق المشهد الجديد، في المعاينة وفي الفيديو المصدَّر.
  • للانتقال وقته الخاص. عند اختيار انتقال تتأخر طبقات المشهد بمقدار مدّته ويطول المشهد، فيبدأ الرسم بعد انتهاء الانتقال. وتبدأ الطبقات الجديدة بعده أيضاً.

الصور الملوّنة تُرسم من الداكن إلى الفاتح

  • في وضع Color تحبّر اليد الخطوط الداكنة أولاً، ثم الرماديات، ثم كل لون من الأغمق إلى الأفتح، وتلوّن كل منطقة بضربات ذهاباً وإياباً.
  • لا رسم فوق الفراغ بعد الآن: لا يمرّ القلم إلا حيث يكشف شيئاً جديداً، ويرتفع فوق المناطق المرسومة سابقاً أو التي لا شيء فيها.
  • صور المكتبة تبدأ بوضع Color (Despeckle 20 و Colors 4)، فتُرسم بألوانها كاملة مباشرة. أما الصور المستوردة من الجهاز فتبقى على الوضع الافتراضي Binary.

الخلفيات والمكتبة

  • معرض الخلفيات: اختر خلفية المشهد من مجموعة صور جاهزة.
  • المكتبة تفتح فوراً وتحمّل صورها المصغّرة بالتوازي، مع شريط تقدّم.
  • صور جديدة في المكتبة المدمجة ومجموعة جديدة باسم Illustration style 01.
  • استيراد الصور وعناصر المكتبة أسرع.

تغييرات أخرى

  • هذه المثبّتات غير موقّعة: يحذّر Windows SmartScreen عند أول تشغيل، وعلى ماك يحتاج أول تشغيل إلى النقر بالزر الأيمن ← فتح.

And everything around it

Illustration library

Hundreds of illustrations in several styles — business, learning, emotions, ideas — that download as you use them and stay available offline.

Hands and pens

Markers, a pencil and fountain pens in several skin tones, or your own image — with a setup window that puts the tip exactly on the drawing line.

Templates

Save a finished video as a template, then drop new images into its slots — each is traced and fitted into the same place, with the timing, audio and effects intact.

Voice-over script

Import your narration script; timed lines highlight as the video plays, click one to jump there, or turn any line into handwritten text.

Precise layout

Rulers, guides, safe areas and crop frames for vertical and square exports, with snapping to guides, edges and other layers.

Straight to YouTube

Upload the export to your channel the moment it finishes, with title, description, tags and a custom thumbnail.
