Do I need a screen recording to use this template?

No. If you paste a product URL in the [product-url] slot, ngram pulls screens from the site. A real recording is better for internal tools that aren't publicly accessible — upload it and ngram will use it scene by scene.

How many modules can I list in [module-list]?

Four modules fit cleanly in 60 seconds (about 9 seconds each). For five or more, use the 90-second or 2-minute variation, or split into separate role-specific videos so each one stays tight.

Can I make different videos for different roles on the same platform?

Yes — that's the point of the [role] slot. Swap COO for Sales Rep, HR Admin, or Analyst and run the prompt again. Each video covers the same product with different module priorities and tone.

What if I already have a script I want to follow?

Paste your script into the prompt after the module list, then add: "Follow this script exactly — do not rewrite." ngram will sequence scenes against it instead of generating new narration.

How do I add my company's brand to the output?

Set up your brand kit at /app/brand-kit before generating. ngram applies your logo, fonts, and colors automatically to every scene.

Can this work for a sales training video, not just customer onboarding?

Yes. Use the "Sales training + CTA" variation: shift [role] to your sales rep persona and swap the closing line to a post-demo booking CTA. ngram reframes the narration to emphasize business value at each step.

What languages does voiceover support?

Broad — covering most major languages. Set [vo-language] to your target language; ngram generates the voiceover and captions in that language.

The reusable prompt for every SaaS tutorial video you need to ship

Built from real ngram prompts. Paste your product URL, name the role and modules, and get a step-by-step 60-second training video — no script to write, no editor to hire.

The short version

What this template is

A SaaS tutorial video template is a slot-ified prompt plus scene structure for producing a narrated, module-by-module walkthrough of a software product for a named role. The user supplies a product URL, a role (COO, sales rep, HR admin), and a list of modules; ngram writes the script, sequences the scenes, and generates a 60-second training video with on-screen UI, captions, and voiceover. The template works for customer onboarding, internal enablement, and YouTube how-to content alike.

The template prompt

Copy it, swap the slots in brackets, and paste it into ngram — or click "Use this template" to open the editor with it prefilled.

prompt

Create a 60-second role-based tutorial video for [product-name] ([product-url]). The audience is [role] users. Cover these modules in order: [module-list]. For each module, show the UI step on screen, narrate what the [role] does and why it matters, then move to the next. Tone: [tone]. End with a brief summary screen listing all modules covered and the line: [closing-line]. Voiceover language: [vo-language]; apply the brand kit if one is set.

Slot	What to put	Example
[product-name]	Your product name	Osprey
[product-url]	Product or documentation URL	https://osprey.io/docs
[role]	The job role being trained	COO
[module-list]	Comma-separated modules in order	Dashboard, People, Fleet, Finance
[tone]	Voice + pacing feel	professional, clear, confident
[closing-line]	Closing on-screen text	You're set. Start with the Dashboard.
[vo-language]	Narration language	English

Scene structure

What ngram builds from this prompt

Five beats, 60 seconds — the shape most SaaS tutorial prompts converge on.

1
Role intro
8s
Open with a title card naming the role and the platform. One sentence: what this video covers and who it's for. No UI yet.
2
Module walkthrough
36s
Cycle through each module: on-screen UI cut, narrated action, a callout box labeling the step. 8-10 seconds per module for a 4-module list.
3
Key action summary
8s
A motion-graphics recap card listing each module and the primary action in it. Reinforces retention without repeating full scenes.
4
Next-step prompt
5s
Brief on-screen nudge — where to go first, what to do next, or how to get help. Optional CTA link.
5
Brand close
3s
Logo + closing line from the [closing-line] slot. Clean exit, no hard sell.

Variations

Common cuts from this template

Single-module deep-dive

Cover one module in detail instead of cycling through all of them. Useful for advanced users who already know the basics.

tweak

Focus on [one-module] only. Show every sub-step with on-screen callouts. Target 90 seconds.

Sales training + CTA

Shift tone and closing to a post-demo booking action. Add client-facing context around each feature.

tweak

Reframe for a client-facing sales demo. After each module, add one sentence on the business value. End with a booking CTA: [booking-line].

YouTube how-to

Expand to 2-3 minutes with chapter markers and a YouTube-optimized title card for organic search.

tweak

Extend to 2 minutes. Add chapter labels for each module. Open with an SEO-friendly intro: why this tutorial matters.

Vertical mobile guide

9:16 reframe for a help center or mobile onboarding flow where the UI is already on a phone.

tweak

Switch to 9:16. Crop the UI to the primary action region. Keep text large and centered.
