FAQ

What is X-Pilot?

X-Pilot is AI video production software for courses and training. Start with a topic or supported source material, shape an editable outline and scenes, preview the knowledge visualizations, and export one video or organize chapter videos into a series.

How does X-Pilot support accuracy?

X-Pilot is built for reviewable accuracy. AI structures the outline and scenes; you can inspect and edit them before export. Approved scenes use knowledge visualizations and Remotion code rendering, so the final visual layer is reproducible and reviewable even though the planning process uses generative AI.

How is X-Pilot different from HeyGen, Synthesia, or NotebookLM?

HeyGen and Synthesia center on avatar-led video, while NotebookLM centers on research and audio summaries. X-Pilot centers on source-traceable course and training videos with precise scene editing, deterministic knowledge rendering, videos longer than 20 minutes, and MP4 or supported SCORM/xAPI delivery.

How is X-Pilot different from generative video models like Seedance, MiniMax Hailuo, or Gemini Omni?

Diffusion / pixel video models (such as Seedance, MiniMax Hailuo, Gemini Omni, and Kling) excel at people, natural scenes, and complex textures. Code-rendered scenes are better for text, charts, buttons, 3D structures, and any content that must stay editable for later revision. X-Pilot renders approved knowledge scenes from code and structured data, so labels, equations, and sequences stay controllable and reviewable.

What can I use to start a video?

Start with a topic or upload supported source files such as PDF, PPTX, DOCX, Markdown, MDX, or text. X-Pilot uses the topic and source material to plan the outline and scenes.

Can I edit an X-Pilot video?

Yes. Review the generated outline and scenes, then make precise natural-language edits to the full project, a selected scene, or a scene element. Preview the revision before MP4 or supported SCORM/xAPI delivery.

Who uses X-Pilot?

X-Pilot is built for course creators, teachers, trainers, learning and development leads, instructional designers, professors, researchers, and product teams creating knowledge-heavy videos.

How much does X-Pilot cost?

The free tier includes 1 free video generation — enough to test the full workflow, no credit card required. Paid plans: Creator $19/mo, Professional $49/mo, Ultra $129/mo, and Business from $159/mo (USD), self-serve, cancel anytime. Business includes 12,000 shared monthly credits, the owner plus 2 member seats, and $15/month additional member seats. Plans: https://www.x-pilot.ai/price.
