Startup Video Production for Founders, From the First Pitch to Growth
4.8
4.9Startup video production for every round, launch and channel
Startup video production is the making of the videos a young company needs to raise money, launch and grow: an explainer for the homepage, a demo for the pitch deck, a launch film, ads and social cut-downs. We handle video production for startups without a film crew, in 2D motion graphics, 3D CGI and AI video, from what you have today, and one master gives you the cut for each channel.
Startup explainer videos
A 60- to 90-second film that shows the problem, how the product solves it and why it matters, for the homepage, the onboarding email and the sales call.
Pitch deck and investor demo videos
A calm walkthrough of the real user flow for the pitch deck, demo day and the data room, with a silent captioned cut that plays on the slide.Launch films and teasers
The film for launch day and the 6- to 15-second teasers before it, for Product Hunt, the launch post and the app stores.Product videos before manufacturing
A hardware product modelled in 3D from CAD or sketches and shown in CGI before the first batch is made, for investors, preorders and retail buyers.
Crowdfunding and preorder videos
Campaign videos and short loops for Kickstarter, Indiegogo and preorder pages: the product in CGI, the app on its screens and the stills for the campaign page.
App demos from Figma and beta screens
App demo videos built from your Figma files, a clickable prototype or a beta build, rebuilt in motion graphics with demo data on every screen.Startup video ads and social cut-downs
6-, 15- and 30-second ads and 9:16 versions for YouTube, LinkedIn, Meta and TikTok, cut from the same master as the explainer or the launch film.
Investor visuals and device renders
Stills of your product on laptops, phones or in use, made from the same scenes as the video, for the deck, the website and press, like the 13 renders we made for a startup launching an automatic glass wiper.
Homepage hero loops
A silent loop for the first screen of your website, cut from the main film, so the homepage moves without autoplaying sound.
Which startup video you need first depends on the decision it has to win next.
An investor decides whether to take the second meeting, a visitor whether to sign up, a backer whether to pledge. We start with that decision, then choose the format, the length and the cuts.

Startup Video Production for Founders, From the First Pitch to Growth
Most studios sell you a video. We work out which one moves your next round, launch or signup.
Ask a video studio what you need and you get a quote for a video. We start from the outcome you need: a second investor meeting, a launch that gets noticed, a homepage that converts, a campaign that funds.
Send one email and our video producer replies with a plan: what to show, to whom, in what order, which cut goes to which channel, and which video can wait until the next stage. The list of videos is the end of that plan, not the beginning.
Free, and yours to keep even if you never work with us.
Thank you – your request has been sent.
Our video producer is reading your request now and will write back with the plan: what to show, to whom, and in what order.
Videos by stage
Startup Videos for Every Stage: Idea, Raise, Launch and Growth
Which video does a startup need at each stage, from the idea to growth?
Order the video your next decision needs. Before a round it is a short demo for the pitch deck; before launch, a launch film and teasers; once traffic arrives, a homepage explainer and ad cut-downs. A master built early is re-cut for the next stage instead of starting again.
| Video | Typical length | Where it plays | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Idea and pre-seed | A concept video from the idea, sketches or Figma screens | 30–60 seconds | Landing page, waitlist, first investor emails |
| Raising a round | A pitch deck and investor demo video | 60–90 seconds, plus a silent cut | Pitch deck, demo day, data room |
| Crowdfunding | A campaign video with the product in CGI and short loops | Main video plus loops and stills | Kickstarter, Indiegogo, preorder page |
| Launch | A launch film and teasers | Film plus 6–15-second teasers | Product Hunt, launch post, app stores |
| Growth | A homepage explainer, ads and social cut-downs | 60–90 seconds, cuts of 6–30 seconds | Homepage, YouTube, LinkedIn, Meta, TikTok |

Free guide: a 60-second film is 1,440 frames. This brief made it $19,740
Behind every logo in that row is a brief that fits in an email: what the film must do, where it plays, how long it runs. The ones that grow into shot lists get expensive fast; one composite 3D architectural animation brief came to $19,740 for a building that needed $4,600. The guide prices each line and gives you the seven storyboard decisions that control the budget.

Startup explainer videos
Startup Explainer Videos That Show What the Product Does in a Minute
What should a startup explainer video show, and how long should it be?
A startup explainer video shows the problem, how the product solves it and why it matters, usually in 60 to 90 seconds. We build it from your real screens or your 3D product, one message per scene, and cut it into a homepage version, a silent loop and social cuts. For Amplitera, a technical SEO crawler, we made a 66-second motion graphics explainer in 12 scenes, with no voice-over.
- Problem first The first seconds name the problem your buyer has, before any feature appears on screen.
- Your real product Screens from your product or Figma, rebuilt in motion graphics with demo data, instead of stock interface graphics.
- One message per scene Each scene carries one point, so the film still makes sense when it is cut down for ads.
- Only what the product does today Features on the roadmap stay out of the film, so investors and early users see what they will get.
- With or without a voice-over A voice-over, or captions and sound design for viewers who watch with the sound off.
- Updated after the next release You receive the editable project files, so a changed screen is replaced without making the film again.
Common startup video problems
Startup Video Challenges We Solve
-
01 Happened to us
The product is not finished yet
The pitch or the launch date comes before the build, and there is nothing finished to record.
Our fixWe build the video from Figma screens, a prototype, a beta build or CAD files, with demo data on every screen.
-
02 Happened to us
Investors close an ad-style video
A loud promo with stock music tells an investor nothing about how the product works.
Our fixFor the deck we make a calm 60–90-second walkthrough of the real user flow, plus a silent captioned cut for the slide.
-
03 Happened to us
One budget, many channels
The deck, the homepage, Product Hunt, ads and social media each seem to need their own video.
Our fixOne master is planned with its cuts from the start: the deck version, a homepage loop, teasers and 9:16 ads.
-
04 Happened to us
The product changes every sprint
A video made today shows screens that will be out of date after the next release.
Our fixYou receive the editable project files, so changed screens are replaced in the existing film.
-
05 Happened to us
Stock graphics look like every other startup
Template characters and generic dashboards make the product look like everyone else in the category.
Our fixThe video is built from your real product, your brand colours and type, and the one point that sets you apart.

How a startup video is made, from your screens or CAD to every cut
Every startup video we make goes through the same five steps, so you approve the story and the look before anything is animated and the pitch or launch date stays safe.
For an AI CFO fintech startup, the product’s own interface screens became both a 48-second launch film and nine device renders for the launch.

For investors
Pitch Deck and Investor Demo Videos for Startups
What kind of video works in a pitch deck or an investor meeting?
A calm product walkthrough, not an ad. Investors want to see the real user flow, so we build the demo from your beta screens or Figma files, keep the version for the deck to 60–90 seconds and add a silent captioned cut that plays on the slide while you talk. The pitch deck itself is designed on our presentation design page.
| In the pitch deck | In the data room | On the website | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Length | 60–90 seconds | Longer, one chapter per core flow | 60–90 seconds plus a silent loop |
| Sound | Silent, with captions | Voice-over or captions | Music, voice-over optional |
| What it shows | The problem, the core flow, the proof | Every core flow step by step | The one flow that sells the product |
| File | 16:9, embedded on the slide | 16:9 with chapters | 16:9, 9:16 and a homepage loop |
Pricing
How Startup Video Projects Are Quoted
Startup video cost depends on the length and number of cuts, the mix of motion graphics, 3D CGI and AI video, how much has to be designed or modelled, the voice-over and the language versions. We quote every project for its exact scope after seeing your brief.

Before the product exists
Startup Product Videos From an Idea, Figma Screens or CAD
We only have an idea, Figma screens or a CAD model. Can a video still show the product?
Yes. An app is shown from Figma screens or a prototype, rebuilt in motion graphics; a physical product is modelled in 3D from CAD or sketches and shown in CGI before the first batch exists; and if you only have the idea, we write the script with you and design what the viewer will see. For an eco-tech startup we made a CGI product video of a smart composting device before it went into production.
- From Figma or a prototype Screens from your design files or a clickable prototype become the interface scenes of the video.
- From CAD or sketches A 3D model built from your CAD files or sketches, with cutaways and exploded views of what is inside.
- From the idea only We agree the script and key frames with you first, so you see the video before anything is animated.
- For Kickstarter and preorders The product in CGI, the app on its screens and stills for the campaign page, before the first unit ships.
- Device renders for the deck Stills of the product made from the same 3D scenes, for the pitch deck and the website.
- Your founder footage Founder or team footage you have filmed is cut into the video together with our motion graphics, CGI or AI scenes.

Choosing the method
Motion Graphics, 3D CGI or AI Video for a Startup Video
Should our startup video be made in motion graphics, in 3D CGI or with AI video?
Choose by what the product is. Software and apps are clearest in motion graphics built from your screens; hardware needs 3D CGI from CAD; AI video adds people, places and lifestyle scenes quickly for ads. Filming stays the right choice for founder interviews and team stories: we do not film, but we cut your footage into the video together with our graphics, and many videos combine all three methods.
| Motion graphics | 3D CGI | AI video | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Software, apps, data and interfaces | Hardware, devices, cutaways and exploded views | People, places, lifestyle scenes and ad variants |
| What you provide | Screens, Figma files or product access, brand files | CAD files, drawings or sketches, references | A brief, brand files and the claims you can make |
| Accuracy of the product | Your real interface, with demo data | Built from your files | Your product goes in as a 3D model or real screens, not generated |
| Typical 30-second spot | Quoted after the brief | Two to four weeks | Within a week of a full brief |
| Editable afterwards | After Effects or Premiere project files | 3D scenes and renders on request | Re-cut from the final master |

FAQ
Questions founders ask about startup videos
Didn’t find your question?
Ask about your video, your files or your launch date. A producer replies within one business day, with an answer, not a sales call.
What is startup video production?
Startup video production is the making of the videos a young company needs to raise, launch and grow: explainers, pitch deck and investor demo videos, launch films, crowdfunding videos, ads and social cuts. We make them in 2D motion graphics, 3D CGI and AI video, so most of them need no shoot.
Which video should a startup make first?
The one your next decision needs. Before a round, make a short demo for the pitch deck; before launch, a launch film and teasers; if the homepage gets traffic but few signups, an explainer. A master planned well is re-cut for the next stage.
We only have an idea and a few sketches. Can you make a video?
Yes. We agree the script and the key frames with you first, design the screens or model the product in 3D from your sketches, and animate only after you approve how it looks. Founders often use this video for a landing page, a waitlist or first investor emails.
Can you make the video before our product is finished?
Yes. Apps are shown from Figma files, a prototype or a beta build, rebuilt in motion graphics with demo data; hardware is modelled in 3D from CAD or sketches before the first batch is made.
Which user flows should an investor demo show?
Four things, in this order: the problem, the core flow that solves it, the proof that it works, and the ask. Everything else goes into a longer version for the data room.
How long should a pitch deck video be?
60 to 90 seconds for the version on the slide, with captions so it works without sound while you talk. A longer walkthrough, one chapter per core flow, can go into the data room.
What is the difference between a startup explainer video and a launch video?
An explainer tells new visitors what the product does and why it matters, and stays on the homepage for months. A launch film announces the product or a new release on a date. We make launch films on our product launch video page.
Can you make a Kickstarter or crowdfunding video?
Yes: the product in CGI before the first unit ships, the app on its screens, short loops and stills for the campaign page, with your founder footage cut in if you have it. See 3D product animation for product films made before manufacturing.
Do you film founder interviews or team stories?
No, we do not film. Founder interviews and team stories are filmed by your team or a film crew; we cut that footage into the video together with our motion graphics, CGI and AI scenes. We do not take on editing of footage alone, without our graphics.
How long does a startup video take?
A 30-second AI spot is usually ready within a week of a full brief, a 30-second CGI spot takes two to four weeks, and a CGI film of up to a minute takes four to six weeks. Explainer timelines are agreed after the brief.
How many revisions are included?
For motion graphics and CGI, two rounds of changes on the draft and one on the final cut. For AI video, the number of revisions is agreed per project.
Will we get the editable project files?
Yes. You receive the editable After Effects or Premiere project with its assets, so screens can be updated after a release. On request, 3D models are handed over with their source files and exclusive commercial rights.
Who owns the finished videos?
Transfer of rights to the finished videos is agreed and written into the contract: we can transfer them, or the studio can keep them.
Can you work under NDA before our launch?
Yes, we work under NDA, and then the work is not shown anywhere. Without an NDA we still do not show it if you ask us not to; otherwise we may show it in our portfolio. The terms are agreed before the project starts.
Which AI tools do you use, and will our files go into them?
We work with Higgsfield, Kling, Runway, Veo, Seedance, Midjourney and ElevenLabs, chosen per shot. If you ask, we will not upload your files to any external AI service.
How much does startup video production cost?
It depends on the length and number of cuts, the mix of motion graphics, CGI and AI video, how much has to be designed or modelled, and the voice-over and language versions. Send your brief and we reply with a fixed quote within one business day.
