Skills Custom skills

A skill of your own, in 24 hours.

A custom skill is a Chasca video maker built for the one kind of video you make again and again: your format, your order, your look. On the Pro, Max and Team plans you tell us about that video, we review the request, and most accepted skills are ready within 24 hours. From then on you pick the skill, give it a topic or your file, and every video of that kind comes back the way it should look, in every language Chasca speaks.

On Pro (1 a month), Max (3) and Team (5). You ask for one inside the app, under Skills.

Why your kind of video needs its own skill.

A general AI video maker is built to make anything, so it makes everything the same way. That works for a one-off explainer. It falls short the moment your video has rules: a coaching class that always shows the shortcut before the full method, a pharmacy that explains every medicine in the same three parts, a language teacher whose word of the day always has the root, two examples and a quiz.

Those rules are what your viewers recognise and trust. Asking a general tool to follow them means writing long instructions every time and fixing the same things in every video. A skill keeps the rules for you. It knows how your kind of video opens, what goes on screen and in what order, how long it runs and how it ends, so the only thing left to give it is the topic.

How it works

How a custom skill gets made.

  1. 1

    Tell us about your video

    Inside the app, under Skills, describe the video you make again and again: what it shows, who watches it, how often you make one, and a link to one you like.

  2. 2

    We review it

    We read every request and take on the ones that fit how Chasca makes videos. If we can’t build it, the request is given back to you with a short note.

  3. 3

    We build it

    Most accepted skills are ready within 24 hours. The app shows where your request stands the whole time.

  4. 4

    Make videos with it

    Your skill sits with the others. Pick it, give it a topic or your file, choose a language, and the video comes back finished.

A skill for the video only your niche makes.

A few of the custom skills people could ask for. Each one is one kind of video, made the same way every time.

  • A coaching institute

    Past exam questions solved with the shortcut first, then the full method, then the trap most students fall into.

  • A pharmacy chain

    A one-minute card for each medicine: what it is for, how to take it, and what to avoid with it.

  • A driving school

    One road sign a day: the sign, what it means, and the mistake learners make with it.

  • A language teacher

    A word of the day with its root, two everyday examples and a three-question quiz at the end.

  • An HR team

    A policy change in under a minute: what changes, from when, and who to ask.

  • A children’s channel

    A bedtime fable with a painted picture for every beat and the moral said at the end.

What a custom skill can be.

Chasca makes clear, narrated videos quickly and at a fair price, and every skill has to keep it that way. So a custom skill is built from the kinds of pictures Chasca already draws.

What we build

  • Whiteboard and blackboard explainers, with diagrams, graphs and tables drawn as they are said
  • Worked problems, step by step, with a pointer on the line being explained
  • Painted pictures, one for each beat of a story
  • Cut-out cartoon casts that act an idea out
  • Your own slides or pages, narrated
  • Every language and voice Chasca has, your own voice included

What we don’t

  • 3D animation
  • Filmed or live-action footage, and screen recordings
  • Talking avatars and lip-synced presenters
  • Copies of another creator’s characters, brand or style
  • Anything our acceptable use policy rules out

How requests work.

Every request is reviewed
We build the requests that fit how Chasca makes videos, so every video made with the skill stays quick to make and fairly priced.
If we can’t build it, you get it back
A request we can’t take on is given back to you with a short note on why, so you can ask for a different skill instead.
Your skill joins the library
Custom skills aren’t private. Once built, yours is added to the Chasca skills library for everyone, so leave anything confidential out of the request. Your own files and videos stay private.
Usually ready within 24 hours
Most skills are ready within 24 hours of being accepted. A larger one can take longer, and the app shows where it stands.
Shaped to work for everyone
We keep to what you asked for, and may adjust the look, length or wording so the skill works well for everyone who uses it.
Requests renew each month
Each plan’s requests renew with it every month. Unused ones don’t roll over.

Custom skills by plan.

  • Pro

    1 custom skill a month

  • Max

    3 custom skills a month

  • Team

    5 custom skills a month

Every video made with a skill, yours included, uses your plan’s minutes like any other video. Compare the plans

A video maker we build for the one kind of video you make again and again. It keeps your format: how the video opens, what is on screen and in what order, how long it runs and how it ends. You give it a topic or your file, and the video comes back finished. Custom skills come with the Pro, Max and Team plans.

In the Chasca app, open Skills and choose Request a skill. Describe the video you make again and again, who watches it and how often you make one, and add a link to one you like if you have it. The same page shows where your request stands.

Most accepted requests are ready within 24 hours. A larger skill can take longer, and the app shows where yours stands.

Pro includes 1 custom skill a month, Max 3 and Team 5. Requests renew with your plan each month and don’t roll over. See pricing.

No. A skill we build joins the Chasca skills library, so everyone can use it. Leave anything confidential out of your request. The files you upload and the videos you make stay private to your account.

Chasca doesn’t make 3D animation, filmed or live-action footage, screen recordings, talking avatars or lip-synced presenters, or copies of another creator’s characters, brand or style. A custom skill is built from the pictures Chasca already draws: board explainers and diagrams, worked problems, painted pictures, cut-out cartoons and narrated slides.

No. It uses your plan’s minutes like any other Chasca video.

Yes. Like every skill, it works in every language Chasca speaks, with the narration written in the language you choose.
