Website Scroll Video vs Tella

Tella, the screen recording app, offers a free generator that turns a URL into a scrolling MP4. It is clean and quick. Here is where it stops.

Checked against Tella’s own pages on

The short answer

Tella’s free generator turns any public URL into an MP4 captured at 1440 × 900, scrolling down and back for up to about 20 seconds, with cookie banners, ads and trackers blocked, no login and no watermark. Website Scroll Video does the same job with every setting exposed: up to 90 seconds, any of five aspect ratios or an exact size, up to 4K at 60 fps, MP4, WebM or GIF, phone-width capture, pauses, hovers and scroll animations.

Which one fits

Both are good at something. This is when each is the better choice.

TChoose Tella if

  • You want one quick MP4 with no account at all.
  • Landscape at 1440 × 900 is the shape you need.
  • You plan to record a voiceover in Tella afterwards.

Choose Website Scroll Video if

  • You need a vertical or square video, or a specific size.
  • The scroll should run longer than about 20 seconds, or slower.
  • You need the phone layout, a GIF, a WebM or 4K.
  • You want to pause on sections, show hovers or keep scroll animations.

What Tella’s generator does

Tella is a screen recording app for demos and tutorials, with camera, voiceover and a cursor-following zoom. Its free website screenshot video generator is a separate, simpler thing: paste any public URL and it captures the page at 1440 × 900, then plays an eased scroll from top to bottom and back. Short pages finish sooner and very long pages scroll faster to fit, for a video of up to about 20 seconds. Cookie banners, ads and trackers are blocked, there is no login, no watermark, and a limit of five videos an hour.

It is one of the better free options, and it makes no claim to be more than a quick generator.

Where they differ

  • Length is yours. Tella fits the page into its time limit, so a long page scrolls fast. Here you set 2 to 90 seconds, trim the scroll to the part that matters, and add pauses on the sections worth reading.
  • Shape and size. Tella captures one landscape size. Website Scroll Video exports 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 4:5 or 9:16, or any exact size, at 720p to 4K.
  • The mobile site. Portrait shapes here come with reading the page at phone or tablet width, so a 9:16 video shows the real mobile layout.
  • Motion. Four curves, from a constant Linear for background loops to a section-by-section Pulse, at 24, 30 or 60 fps.
  • Things a still capture misses. Live Capture plays scroll-triggered animations, and the cursor plays hover effects on the elements you choose.

Price

Tella’s generator is free with no login. Website Scroll Video needs an account to export: 51 free credits at signup with no card, then packs of $5 for 100, $12 for 400 and $19 for 900 credits that never expire. No subscription and no watermark on either side.
