Pourquoi faire confiance à ce guide ?
I’ve used Elai for eight months and tested every feature covered here.
This tutorial comes from real hands-on work — not vendor screenshots.
Elai is one of the strongest Vidéo IA outils disponibles aujourd'hui.
But most people only ever touch the basic text box.
Instructional videos keep growing as more learning moves onto online platforms.
Studies show people retain more information watching a video than reading.
This guide shows you how to use Elai end to end.
Étape par étape, avec captures d'écran et conseils de pro.
Tutoriel Elai
This How to Use Elai tutorial walks you through video creation in Elai from first log in to finished render.
Elai
Turn plain text into polished video content in minutes. Elai gives you 80+ AI avatars, voice cloning and translation into 75+ languages. Start free — no camera and no crew required.
Premiers pas avec Elai
Avant d'utiliser une quelconque fonctionnalité, veuillez terminer cette configuration unique.
Cela prend environ trois minutes.
Here is what my first week with the tool actually looked like:
Passons maintenant en revue chaque étape.
Étape 1 : Créez votre compte
Go to the Elai website and click Sign Up.
Saisissez votre adresse e-mail et créez un mot de passe.
✓ Point de contrôle: Vérifiez votre boîte de réception pour l'e-mail de confirmation.
Étape 2 : Connectez-vous et ouvrez le tableau de bord
Elai runs fully in the browser, so there is nothing to install.
Log in and you land straight on the projects screen.
Here’s what the workspace gives you:
✓ Point de contrôle: You can see the New video button.
Étape 3 : Terminer la configuration initiale
Pick your default language and set your workspace name.
Then browse the templates — Elai ships diverse templates for common cases.
Every template accepts your own visuals and scripts, so nothing looks generic.
Clear walkthroughs also help new staff learn how your business works.
✅ Terminé : Your Elai account is ready for any feature below.
Comment utiliser l'avatar personnalisé Elai
Avatar personnalisé lets you build a selfie avatar that looks and sounds like you.
Voici comment l'utiliser étape par étape.
Step 1: Open the Avatars Tab
Log in and click Avatars in the left sidebar.
Pick Create custom avatar to start the wizard.
Step 2: Upload Your Footage
Record two minutes of footage facing the camera.
Speak naturally and keep your background plain.
Voici à quoi cela ressemble :
✓ Point de contrôle: Your upload shows a green Processing badge.
Step 3: Train and Test
Submit the clip and wait for training to finish.
Drop your new avatar into a scene and preview it.
A human face on screen builds trust that plain slides never earn.
✅ Résultat : You now own a custom avatar alongside the 80+ stock ones.
💡 Conseil de pro : Wear a solid colour shirt. Patterns confuse the model and cause flicker around the shoulders.
How to Setup Elai Avatar Dialogues
Dialogues d'Avatar lets you place two presenters in one scene and script a conversation.
Voici comment l'utiliser étape par étape.
Step 1: Add a Second Avatar
Open a scene and click the Avatar panel.
Choose Add avatar and position both figures on canvas.
Step 2: Split the Script
Assign each line of text to one speaker.
Elai reads the tags and alternates the speech automatically.
Voici à quoi cela ressemble :
✓ Point de contrôle: Both avatars appear in the scene thumbnail.
Étape 3 : Régler la minuterie
Add a short pause between turns so replies land cleanly.
✅ Résultat : A two-person dialogue scene ready to render.
💡 Conseil de pro : Give each speaker a different voice accent. Identical voices make dialogue scenes hard to follow.
How to Use Elai Interactive Panels
Interactivité lets you add quizzes, clickable buttons and branching scenarios inside the editor.
Voici comment l'utiliser étape par étape.
Step 1: Open the Interactive Panel
Select a scene and click the Interactivity icon.
Pick quiz, button, or branching from the menu.
Step 2: Build the Question
Saisissez votre question and mark the correct answer.
Point each wrong answer at a remedial scene.
Voici à quoi cela ressemble :
✓ Point de contrôle: Each answer jumps to the scene you mapped.
Step 3: Test the Branches
Preview the video and click every path once.
✅ Résultat : A branching lesson that reacts to viewer choices.
💡 Conseil de pro : Export to Panopto and every interactive element keeps working during playback.
How to Use Elai Real-Time Chat
Real-Time Chat lets you turn a presenter into a live agent viewers can talk to.
Voici comment l'utiliser étape par étape.
Step 1: Enable Chat Mode
Open the project menu and switch on Real-Time Chat.
Step 2: Feed It Knowledge
Paste your help docs, FAQ text, or product notes.
The avatar answers only from the content you connect.
Voici à quoi cela ressemble :
✓ Point de contrôle: The avatar replies within a couple of seconds.
Étape 3 : Partager le lien
Copy the share link and send it to testers.
✅ Résultat : A talking agent that handles common questions on its own.
💡 Conseil de pro : Keep the knowledge base short. Long documents slow replies and blur the answers.
Comment utiliser le clonage vocal Elai
Clonage vocal lets you clone your voice and reuse it across every project.
Voici comment l'utiliser étape par étape.
Step 1: Open Voices
Go to Voices and click Clone my voice.
Step 2: Record a Clean Sample
Read the prompt script in a quiet room.
Use a headset mic — bad audio ruins the clone.
Voici à quoi cela ressemble :
✓ Point de contrôle: Your voice appears under Custom voices.
Step 3: Apply the Voice
Select your clone in the scene speech settings.
Bad audio stops viewers following your instructions, so test one scene first.
✅ Résultat : Every future script plays back in your own voice.
💡 Conseil de pro : Record in the morning. A tired voice at night clones with a flatter tone.
Comment utiliser la génération de texte en vidéo avec Elai
Génération de texte en vidéo lets you turn a script, a blog URL, or a topic into a full storyboard.
Voici comment l'utiliser étape par étape.
Étape 1 : Choisissez votre source
Click New video and pick text, URL, or topic.
Paste the source and hit Create.
Step 2: Review the AI Storyboard
The AI Storyboard splits your content into logical scenes.
It suggests visuals for each one automatically.
Voici à quoi cela ressemble :
✓ Point de contrôle: Each scene shows a script block and a suggested image.
Étape 3 : Modifier et générer
Swap any weak visual, then click the Generate button.
✅ Résultat : A complete draft built from a single paste.
💡 Conseil de pro : Feed it a blog URL rather than raw text. The topic structure survives better.
Comment utiliser les vidéos multilingues d'Elai
Vidéos multilingues lets you translate a finished video into more than 75 languages.
Voici comment l'utiliser étape par étape.
Step 1: Finish the Master Video
Lock your script before translating anything.
Step 2: Pick Target Languages
Open Translate and select your markets.
Elai carries over 65 language options for voice alone.
✓ Point de contrôle: A separate project appears for each language.
Step 3: Proof the Output
Have a native speaker check names and numbers.
✅ Résultat : The same lesson ready for every regional team.
💡 Conseil de pro : Trim idioms from the master script first. Literal translations of slang read badly.
How to Use Elai Stock Media Library
Bibliothèque de médias d'archives lets you pull footage, images and music without leaving the editor.
Voici comment l'utiliser étape par étape.
Step 1: Open the Media Panel
Click Media inside any scene.
Step 2: Search and Drop
Search a keyword and drag the clip onto the canvas.
Swap weak stock images for screenshots where you can.
Voici à quoi cela ressemble :
✓ Point de contrôle: The clip fills the scene background.
Step 3: Add Background Music
Pick a royalty-free track or upload your own.
✅ Résultat : A scene with proper visuals and a music bed.
💡 Conseil de pro : Keep music at roughly twenty percent volume. Anything louder fights the narration.
Comment utiliser le kit de la marque Elai
Kit de marque lets you lock your fonts, colours and logo across every project.
Voici comment l'utiliser étape par étape.
Étape 1 : Ouvrir le kit de marque
Find Brand Kit in workspace settings.
Étape 2 : Téléchargez vos ressources
Add your logo, hex codes and heading font.
Save the set so new projects inherit it.
Voici à quoi cela ressemble :
✓ Point de contrôle: Your logo sits in the corner of each scene.
Étape 3 : Appliquer à différentes scènes
Use Bulk Change to push the style to every scene at once.
✅ Résultat : Consistent branding without touching scenes one by one.
💡 Conseil de pro : Upload a transparent PNG logo. JPG versions leave a white box over darker scenes.
Conseils et astuces d'Elai Pro
After eight months of daily use, these are the shortcuts I actually reach for.
Creative visuals, clear explanations and a conversational tone carry most of the weight.
Video quality has a direct impact on whether your message actually lands.
Raccourcis clavier
| Action | Raccourci |
|---|---|
| Duplicate the current scene | Ctrl + D |
| Preview the video | Espace |
| Undo the last edit | Ctrl + Z |
| Save the project | Ctrl + S |
Fonctionnalités cachées que la plupart des gens ignorent
- Bulk Change: Update styles or prompts across every scene at once instead of editing scene by scene.
- Full preview before render: Play the whole video first to check visuals line up with the speech.
- Export presets: Render to MP4, Full HD or 4K, then push the file straight to YouTube.
Erreurs courantes à éviter
Mistake #1: Writing the Script Inside the Editor
❌ Faux : Opening a blank project and typing whatever comes to mind.
✅ À droite : Plan first, then write. The script is your roadmap, and planning ahead changes the result.
Mistake #2: Cramming Everything Into One Scene
❌ Faux : Pasting four paragraphs of text into a single scene.
✅ À droite : Break complex ideas into small parts. That approach helps learners retain far more.
Mistake #3: Ignoring Silent Viewing
❌ Faux : Relying on narration alone with no on-screen text.
✅ À droite : Add captions and key words on screen. Most social viewers watch muted.
Dépannage d'Elai
Problem: The Render Never Finishes
Cause: Heavy stock footage or too many scenes in one project.
Réparer: Split the project in two and render each half. A short video normally finishes around the 03 00 mark.
Problem: The Avatar Mouth Looks Out of Sync
Cause: Numbers and acronyms confuse the speech engine.
Réparer: Spell them phonetically in the script box, then preview that scene again.
Problem: Your API Key Won’t Generate
Cause: Only the account admin can create and manage API keys.
Réparer: Ask your admin for access, or log in with the admin account and issue the key there.
📌 Note: If none of these fix your issue, contact Elai support.

The Elai API extends all of this outside the editor.

It also allows dynamic changes to texts, speech and images for every individual video.
Connect it to Zapier and you get that automation sans écrire de code.
The video API does take more development effort than the no-code route.
It works on both paid and trial accounts.
