Leonardo da Vinci
Encouragement for a restless, inventive mind.
Meet Leonardo da VinciOur characters are AI generated. They're not really them. We won't tell if you don't tell.
Pair the figure with the moment
Lincoln is steady and kind for a retirement or a hard-won milestone. Julius Caesar announces small victories with ridiculous grandeur. Leonardo suits a new job or a big idea, Beethoven a comeback, Mozart a first recital, and Frida Kahlo anyone who is brave about being exactly who they are.
Their manner, not a lecture
Scripts borrow each figure's manner rather than their speeches. Expect Lincoln's patience and Caesar's swagger, not quotations or dates. The aim is a warm, funny half-minute for your recipient, not a documentary.
From checkout to their screen
Once you pay for the approved script, the finished film is posted to your private order page, usually within a few hours. Send the link, download the file, or keep spare credits for later occasions.
Prefer a storybook face?
Sherlock Holmes, Alice, Robin Hood and Zorro come from classic public-domain tales. See the storybook characters.

Good to know
Questions, answered
Is this a real recording?
No. Every video is an imagined AI performance of a public-domain figure or storybook character. It is not an authentic recording, and nobody, living or historical, has endorsed it.
Which figures can I choose?
Everyone in the list above. Their stories and likenesses are old enough to be in the public domain. We do not offer living people.
What does a video cost?
A single video is $14. Three videos cost $28 and five cost $40; the extra videos stay as credits you can spend on any character later. The price is the same for every character and every occasion.
How long does it take?
Most videos are ready within a few hours of payment, though a busy queue can take longer. We email you a link to your private order page as soon as yours is done.
What if something comes out wrong?
Each video includes one free remake of the same script within 30 days. Open your order page and choose Remake; it does not use a credit.
