Upload your book. We do everything else.
A week of posts from your book, published for you. Your first week is free.
Your book on autopilot
How it works
- Step 1: Upload your book. Drop a PDF, EPUB, or DOCX, or paste a scene. We extract your strongest scenes.
- Step 2: We find the hook. We pick the scene that makes people stop scrolling and want more.
- Step 3: We turn it into a short video. A ready-to-post 9:16 video with an optional quote overlay; no filming, no editing.
- Step 4: Share it instantly. Download or post straight to TikTok, Reels, and Shorts, right from Pharos.

Frequently asked questions
- Do I need to show my face on camera?
- No. We turn your book's scenes into cinematic videos with AI. No camera, no face, no filming. Your story goes on screen; you stay behind the scenes.
- What happens to my books? Are they used to train AI?
- Your manuscript is used only to generate your own content. We do not use your books to train general-purpose AI models. Your work stays yours.
- How does the free week work?
- Upload your book and your first video is free, no credit card. Then connect an account and Pharos posts a week of scenes, quotes and book pages for you. Upgrade when you want it to keep going.
- What genres do you support?
- We're optimized for romance (including dark romance, paranormal romance, and romantasy), fantasy, thriller, literary fiction, and non-fiction. These cover the biggest BookTok niches. Other genres still work. Just upload and try it.
- Can I change or cancel my plan?
- Yes. Upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime from your account. No lock-in, and we don't use your content after you leave.
- Can I use Pharos for multiple books or a whole catalog?
- Yes. Upload as many books as you want. Every book gets its own scenes, characters and videos, and your plan's monthly volume is shared across your whole catalog.
- Is Pharos an AI video generator?
- Yes, with one difference that matters. A general AI video maker or text to video tool starts from a prompt you write yourself. Pharos starts from your manuscript: it reads the whole book, picks the scenes worth filming, writes the prompts for you and keeps your characters looking the same in every clip.
