Question 1

What is Bob the Dealer?

Accepted Answer

Bob the Dealer is an AI video story series. Bob the Builder's crew reimagined as a London firm moving product to Ibiza (the viral 'Bob the Dealer' format). Bob runs the site as a front, Wendy spends faster than they earn, Dora is the loyal earner with the Colombian connect, Noddy chases girls instead of working, Dizzy the cement mixer mixes more than cement, and Postman Pat delivers first class. Rendered in the show's iconic stop-motion puppet look with full British crime-comedy dialogue. You pick or write an episode idea and the AI writes the scenes and dialogue, then generates a vertical 9:16 video with voices for it.

Question 2

Can I change the Bob the Dealer cast?

Accepted Answer

Bob the Dealer ships with its own fixed main cast - those characters are what the series is, so they arrive already designed and cannot be swapped for different ones. You can still add your own characters alongside them, including uploading a photo, and everything else is yours: the storyline, the dialogue, the number of scenes and the language. To build a story around characters of your own instead, use any of the open series or the Own Idea door on the AI Video Story page.

Question 3

Do the characters stay consistent across scenes and episodes?

Accepted Answer

Within an episode, every scene is generated from the same cast portraits, so a character keeps the same face, outfit and colours from scene to scene. Across episodes, characters you generate or upload are saved to your cast library and can be pulled into a new story, and a finished video has a Generate next part button that continues the same episode with the same cast.

Question 4

Do I have to use the example Bob the Dealer storylines?

Accepted Answer

No. The example beats are one-click starting points. You can shuffle them, edit the wording, or ignore them entirely and type your own episode idea in a sentence. No. Pick a series and shuffle a storyline, or type one sentence of your own idea, and the AI writes the full scene list, the dialogue and the image prompts for you. You can then edit any part of it, or all of it, before generating.

Question 5

Can I recreate a viral video in the Bob the Dealer style?

Accepted Answer

Recreate rebuilds an existing video as your own episode. Paste a TikTok link or upload a video file, and the AI watches it: it reads the art style, every recurring character's look and voice, the scene-by-scene beats and the spoken lines, then loads all of that into the editor as an editable cast plus a scene list. Nothing from the original file is reused - the whole episode is generated fresh from those prompts, so you can change the characters, the lines or the number of scenes before you generate.

Question 6

How long is a Bob the Dealer episode and what format is it?

Accepted Answer

A default episode is 5 scenes of 5 seconds, roughly 25 seconds. You can set anywhere from 1 to 30 scenes, change how long each scene runs, and split a longer story across multiple parts. Everything renders vertical 9:16, ready for TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels.

Question 7

Which languages can episodes be made in?

Accepted Answer

Episodes can be written and voiced in 29 languages, picked before the story is written. A recreated video defaults to the language spoken in the source clip.

Question 8

Do I need an account, and what does it cost?

Accepted Answer

You can open the creator and look around without an account. Creating an episode needs a free account. Writing the cast and the scene list costs nothing; generating the character portraits and the video itself spends tokens, and the token cost is shown on the button before you click it.
