SEATTLE: #AIVideo--Pictory, the AI-powered video creation platform used by creators and businesses worldwide, today released its 2026 State of the AI Video-Creation Industry Report. Based on aggregated and anonymized data from more than 1.5 million videos created on the Pictory platform during 2026, the report provides one of the industry’s most comprehensive looks at how organizations, creators, educators, and marketers are using AI to produce video content.

The findings show that AI video creation has moved beyond experimentation and into everyday professional use. Content teams increasingly rely on AI-powered workflows to transform existing assets into videos, while AI-native formats such as avatars, generated imagery, and automated voiceovers continue to gain momentum.

“The data shows that AI video creation is no longer a niche activity,” said Vikram Chalana, Co-Founder and CEO of Pictory. “We’re seeing professionals across industries adopt AI-powered workflows to create content faster, repurpose existing assets, and scale video production in ways that were previously impossible.”

Among the report’s most notable findings:

• The busiest hour for AI video creation globally is 9 p.m. local time.
• Denmark leads the world in voiceover adoption, using custom voiceovers 7x the rate of creators in the United States.
• Oregon ranks as the leading U.S. state for AI image generation, while Pennsylvania leads in AI avatar adoption.
• Training and education professionals use PowerPoint-to-video workflows 4x more often than YouTube creators.
• Professional users leverage URL-to-video workflows at 9x the rate of personal users, highlighting the growing importance of content repurposing.
• Mac users consistently demonstrate higher adoption of advanced AI video features, including avatars, AI-generated imagery, and voiceovers.
• Sales and marketing teams produce the shortest videos, averaging 1.7 minutes, while YouTube creators generate the longest content at 3.9 minutes.

These differences underscore how AI video adapts to specific business objectives, from engagement and education to lead-generation and internal communications.

According to the report, businesses that effectively repurpose existing content, integrate AI-generated visuals, and adopt scalable video workflows are competing in an increasingly visual marketplace.
