What kinds of things can I explain with these videos?

Anything that benefits from a visual walkthrough: a SaaS product, a new feature, a service workflow, an onboarding flow, a financial or technical concept, or a how-it-works overview. Describe the idea and the steps you want shown, and you get an animated clip that maps to it.

Do I need a script or storyboard first?

No. A clear prompt describing the concept, the steps to visualize, and the style is enough. It helps to think through the single most important point you want a first-time viewer to walk away with, then describe the visuals that make that point land.

What aspect ratios work best for explainers?

Use 16:9 for your website, landing pages, and YouTube, 9:16 for Reels, Shorts, and TikTok, and 1:1 for in-feed posts. You can generate the same explainer concept in each format so one idea covers every placement.

How does pricing work and what if a render fails?

You use prepaid credits, so you only spend on what you generate. If a render fails or gets blocked, you are not charged for it, so experimenting with different phrasings to nail the explanation stays low-risk.

Can I iterate until the explanation is clear?

Yes, and that is the recommended approach. Generate a version, watch it as if you knew nothing about your product, then adjust the prompt, tighten the steps shown, or change the style and re-render until the message reads clearly.

Get started

A prompt to start from

“Clean, modern flat-animation explainer scene: a single glowing app icon at center transforms step by step into three connected nodes, then into a simple dashboard, illustrating how a tool unifies scattered tasks. Soft gradient background in calm blues and white, smooth left-to-right camera glide, gentle parallax on floating UI cards, confident and friendly mood, bright even lighting, subtle motion as elements snap into place.”
