Overview
VidToArticle supports seven distinct writing styles. Each style controls tone, structure, and level of detail while using the same underlying video as the source.
Choosing the right style up front will save editing time later and help keep your publication consistent.

How styles interact with your video
All styles start from the same video transcript, but each one:
- Emphasizes different aspects (facts, narrative, takeaways, etc.).
- Uses different sentence length and vocabulary.
- Chooses different headline and subheading patterns.
If the first style you try doesnt match your brand voice, you can generate again with a different style based on the same video.
Choosing a style for common use cases
- Company blog: Start with News or Technical, depending on your audience.
- Creator / influencer blog: Use Casual Blog or Bombastic.
- Education / course notes: Use Academic or Technical.
- Fast content for social / entertainment: Use Tabloid Style or Bombastic.
- Roundups and recap posts: Use Listicle.
Changing styles later
If you generated an article in one style and want another:
- Go back to Generate Article.
- Paste the same YouTube URL.
- Pick a different style.
- Generate again and compare which version fits your publication best.
You can keep multiple versions, download them separately, or publish different styles to different channels.
