Text to Video AI: Type a Prompt, Get a Clip
Write one sentence, get a 5-second portrait video back in a few minutes. Sisif runs an open-weights video model, charges $1 a clip, and never stamps a watermark on the export.
Text to video is the simplest way to make a clip: you describe the scene, the model renders it. Sisif keeps the loop short. The prompt box takes plain English, the default clip is 5 seconds in 540x960 portrait, and a 720x1280 render costs 30 credits. There is no editor to learn and nothing to install. Every clip is $1, and a $10/month plan covers 8 clips a month when you need volume.

How it works
Describe the clip
Write what should happen in 5 seconds: the subject, the style, the camera move. The prompt stays attached to the render, so you can see what made each clip.
We render it
An open-weights model on GPUs we operate turns the prompt into a 540x960 portrait clip, most of the time in 2-5 minutes. A failed render returns the credits.
Download and publish
One MP4, no watermark, yours to publish anywhere, commercial use included. Pay $1 for the clip; nothing recurring.
Prompt tips
- 01 Name the subject, the action and the setting in one sentence: 'a red kite over a foggy beach at sunrise'.
- 02 Add a camera move at the end ('slow pan left', 'handheld') to get motion instead of a still shot.
- 03 Keep it to 5 seconds. Longer clips cost more credits and the model holds a scene best at that length.
