Why Owlyard
Draw, type, and explain in your own voice. Owlyard brings those moments together in an ASVG lesson, so learners can follow your thinking as it unfolds.
Patent-pending ASVG technology
From your canvas to their understanding
You · Content editor
Sketch a shape, add text or symbols, and record your voice on the Smart Digital Canvas. Your explanation takes shape as you teach.
Drawing, text, and voice are recorded together.
What makes the file different
A drawing-led lesson starts with a few strokes, words, and your voice. ASVG preserves those ingredients as a synchronized explanation, without first turning the canvas into conventional video.
A record of how you explain.
The ASVG file brings SVG drawing instructions, text, timing, and recorded voice together. Owlyard’s purpose-built content viewer plays the visuals in sync with your narration.
Well suited to explanations built from strokes, shapes, and symbols. Vector graphics scale cleanly as learners view the lesson.
A sequence of pixel-based images.
A conventional video stores encoded visual frames alongside audio. Video codecs compress image detail and changes between frames to reduce the amount of data.
Well suited to camera footage and rich motion. File size and visual detail depend on the resolution, codec, and encoding settings.
For drawing-led explanations, ASVG can produce smaller files than equivalent MP4 video. The difference depends on visual complexity, embedded images, narration length and audio quality, and the video’s encoding settings. Recorded audio still contributes to the ASVG file size; there is no single reduction that applies to every lesson.
Made for teaching and learning
Learners follow the strokes, symbols, and spoken explanation together, as you created them on the canvas.
Smaller lesson files mean less data to store and transfer, which can reduce storage and bandwidth costs.
Vector drawings and text remain sharp when enlarged, so a small symbol or the next step stays clear.
Bring your drawings and voice to the Smart Digital Canvas. Create a lesson, then share it with your learners.
Basic is always free.
