This is a capable, configurable video-generation tool with a broad contributor base, but its recent development activity is quiet and it has no listed test suite.
Good fit if
- You want to generate Reddit-based video files and are comfortable uploading them manually.
- You can install Python dependencies and configure a Reddit script app.
- GPL-3.0 licensing works for your intended use.
Look elsewhere if
- You need the tool to publish videos automatically.
- Your workflow requires an included test suite or evidence of recent issue and pull-request handling.
- You need a project with active commits in the last 90 days.

Overview
RedditVideoMakerBot is a Python tool built around the Reddit API and Playwright that automates making videos from Reddit posts. It addresses the work of gathering material and editing it into a video, producing a file without requiring manual video editing or asset compiling.
It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux. The bot can use a selected Reddit thread or subreddit and offers choices such as background, music and voice. It does not upload videos: you review and upload the generated file yourself.
Key Features
- Generates videos from Reddit content.
- Supports choosing a Reddit thread or subreddit.
- Offers configurable backgrounds, background music and voices.
- Includes light and dark modes.
- Filters NSFW posts.
- Checks whether a video has already been created.
- Produces a video file for manual upload rather than posting on your behalf.
Use Cases
- A creator who wants to turn Reddit discussions into short-form videos without editing each one manually.
- A developer exploring an automated content-production workflow using the Reddit API and Playwright.
- A social media team that wants to generate video drafts and retain manual review and upload control.

Getting Started
Clone the repository, install its requirements and Playwright dependencies, then run the bot:
git clone https://github.com/elebumm/RedditVideoMakerBot.git
cd RedditVideoMakerBot
pip install -r requirements.txt
python -m playwright install
python -m playwright install-deps
python main.py
Set up a Reddit app as a script when prompted. See the README and project documentation for configuration details.
Considerations
The project is marked Quiet, with no commits in the last 90 days and no recorded issue closures or merged pull requests during that period. It has 82 contributors, and the contribution data does not indicate that work is concentrated in one person. The latest listed release is from October 2025. The repository reports no test suite, so teams should assess changes and generated output themselves. It requires Python and Playwright; the README does not describe automatic publishing, so posting remains a manual step. GPL-3.0 terms should be reviewed before incorporating or distributing the software.
