How to Make a Tutorial Video by Recording Your Screen with AI For FREE

Imagine you want to create a tutorial video about a tool or how to complete a task.

You open your laptop, type something, and then get stuck.

  • What do I record?
  • What do I say?
  • How do people even turn this into a video?

I have been there too.

That’s why this guide explains how to make a tutorial video by only recording your screen.

By the end of this blog, you will know how to create a full tutorial video without speaking, editing, or setting anything up. AI handles the rest.

This guide walks you through each step. If you want to try it yourself, you can start here: VideoMule.


What Should an Ideal Tutorial Video Look Like?

Let’s keep this simple.

When someone clicks a tutorial video, they are already frustrated. Something is not working. They do not want theory. They want help.

Keep these points in mind:

  • Solve one problem, not everything
  • Keep the screen clear and readable
  • Move slowly so viewers can follow
  • Pause when something important happens
  • Match the explanation with what is on the screen
  • Avoid extra talk or side stories

While explaining, always cover:

  • What to click
  • Where to click
  • What happens after clicking
  • What comes next

That’s it.

Keep the Length Short

  • Short videos work better
  • Break complex topics into smaller videos

If viewers finish your video and feel confident to try it themselves, you’ve done your job.


Step-by-Step: How to Make a Tutorial Video by Recording Your Screen with AI

VideoMule works as a screen recorder that also explains what’s happening, adds an AI voice, and prepares the final video.

You do not need a script. You do not need to plan your voice. Just follow the steps.


Step 1: Visit the Homepage

Go to the VideoMule homepage and click Start Creating for FREE.

This lets you create tutorial videos by recording your screen at no cost.

VideoMule Dashboard

Step 2: Create Your Organization

This step is required.

It helps you manage projects, videos, and assets in one place.

Setup Your Profile

Step 3: Start Recording Your Screen

You are now inside the dashboard.

Click to start screen recording and choose what to record:

  • Full screen
  • A specific window or browser tab

Once recording starts, perform the task you want to explain.

Click on Record the Screen

While recording:

  • Move the mouse slowly
  • Pause before clicking
  • Follow steps in order
  • Do not rush

You do not need to speak. Silence is fine.

Stop the recording when you are done.


Step 4: Preview the Screen Recording

After recording stops, VideoMule fetches the video automatically.

Check the preview:

Preview Your Screen Recording
  • Did everything record properly?
  • Is the screen clear?
  • Did you miss anything important?

If it looks good, continue. If not, record again.


Step 5: Choose the Language and AI Voice

Name your video so you can recognize it later.

Next, choose the language. This tells the AI:

  • Which language to write the explanation in
  • Which language the voice should speak
Add Video Title & Customize Your Video

Once selected, the AI starts processing your video.


Step 6: Let VideoMule Analyze the Recording

Now the AI gets to work.

VideoMule Analyzes Your Tutorial Video

It analyzes:

  • What you clicked
  • Where you navigated
  • How each step connects

This takes a few minutes. You do not need to do anything.


Step 7: Review the Script Written by AI

After analysis, you will see a written script.

Review Your AI-generated Script

The script:

  • Follows your screen actions
  • Skips silent parts
  • Uses clear and simple language

You can:

  • Edit the wording
  • Remove lines
  • Download the script
Edit the AI-generated Script

You are not writing the script. You are only reviewing it.


Step 8: Generate the Tutorial Video

Once the script looks good, move forward.

VideoMule will:

  • Read the script using an AI voice
  • Sync the voice with the screen
  • Add subtitles
  • Adjust timing

This happens in a simple editor view. No editing skills needed.


Step 9: Review the Final Video

Watch the video fully.

Check:

  • Does the voice match the screen?
  • Are subtitles readable?
  • Is the pace comfortable?

You can make small trims if needed. Otherwise, leave it as is.


Step 10: Export the Video

Export the final video.

Click on Export Video Download Your Tutorial Video

The video is generated in high quality and ready to publish.

On the free plan, a watermark is added. You can still share and test the video. You can upgrade later if needed.

Input: A Screen Recording

Output: Engaging Tutorial Video Created by VideoMule

You have now created a tutorial video by recording your screen and letting AI do the rest.

If you want to avoid juggling multiple tools and workflows, get started with VideoMule.

It works well for product demos, educational videos, and tutorials.


A Practical Tip After Creating Many Videos

Watch the final video from a user’s point of view.

Ask yourself:

  • Would I click this video first?
  • Would it solve my problem?

If the answer is no, your audience may feel the same. Always double-check.
