Each extra format runs as a separate job — you'll get a link to each from the status page. Paid formats are charged per render.

Paid formats need a SheQAI account — sign in. The free Research Teaser works without one.

Citation details — optional

These appear on the citation slide at the end of your video. Leave any blank and we'll skip them.

General public Researcher

Research Highlights & Video Abstracts speak to Researchers by default.

Tells the AI how to pitch the explanation. "Researcher" targets peers in this paper's own field or a related one; "General public" targets curious viewers with no subject or research background — either way, numbers, results and claims stay exactly as the paper states them. Left untouched, each format uses its own default: Research Teaser/Short → General public, Research Highlight/Video Abstract → Researcher.
