TLDR: VideoGen makes it easy for anyone to create professional, copyright-free videos in seconds. Today, we serve thousands of customers, from individuals and small businesses to teams at Google and ByteDance. Making videos is hard, time-consuming, and expensive when outsourced. With VideoGen, it only takes a few clicks!
👋 Hello, we’re Anton and David. We bootstrapped VideoGen out of our college dorm rooms to over 1 million users in under a year. We met at a tennis academy in middle school and became friends through our shared passion for building web apps and playing tennis. Now, we’re changing how the world creates videos with the help of AI.
The Problem: Creating videos is tedious, painful, and hard.
Making videos is hard. Each step of the process—scripting, recording voice-overs, finding and licensing high-quality footage, and editing—is extremely time-consuming.
Video editing products today are hard to use and have too many buttons. Paying someone to make videos for you is expensive and slow.
The Solution: AI that creates videos for you.
VideoGen can automatically edit professional videos together in a few seconds, saving our customers time and the pain of hiring a video editor.
In just a few clicks, VideoGen can:
🧠Take in company/brand knowledge and media
✍️ Write a video script
🗣️ Generate a lifelike voice-over
✂️ Edit together relevant, copyright-free footage
đź’¬ Add captions
