"We wrote 40 help articles. Our trial-to-paid conversion hasn't moved."
You're a product or CS lead at a growing SaaS company.
Trial signups are healthy, but activation is stuck.
New users sign up, poke around for a few minutes, and quietly disappear before they ever reach the feature that would make them stay.
Your current onboarding is a knowledge base with screenshots and a drip email sequence.
Users open the first article, skim past the intro, and close the tab.
The ones who try to follow along get lost toggling between your docs and your product.
Most never make it past step three.
Nobody reads the docs You built a 40-article help center. Users skim the first paragraph and close the tab. Text-based onboarding has single-digit completion rates.
8+ hours per video Recording, editing, adding callouts, syncing voiceover. A single 3-minute onboarding video eats an entire workday.
Stale before you ship Your next product release makes every existing walkthrough a liability. But re-shooting means starting the production cycle from scratch.
CS can't keep up Your customer success team spends half their week answering the same setup questions. Bandwidth is the bottleneck, not willingness.
23% of customer churn traces back to poor onboarding. Every confused trial user is revenue you already paid to acquire.
From "I'll figure it out later" to "I got this" in their first session

Professional onboarding videos from what you already have
ngram transforms your help articles, screen recordings, or product docs into onboarding videos that drive activation and reduce support load.
Start from a screen recording
Record a quick walkthrough of any workflow. ngram cuts the dead air, adds smooth zooms on every click, overlays step labels and captions, and applies your branding. You review the storyboard, approve or tweak, and export a polished tutorial without touching a timeline.
Or start from your help docs
Paste a knowledge base article, feature description, or product URL. ngram writes a video script, plans the visual sequence, and generates a complete walkthrough with screen captures, motion graphics, and AI voiceover. Your docs become videos in minutes.
Either way, your users get clarity. Your support queue gets lighter. Your trial-to-paid numbers get better.
What changes when customer onboarding video take minutes
Users reach their first win faster
Video shows exactly what to do, removing the guesswork that kills activation. Users who watch an onboarding video are significantly more likely to complete setup and stick around past their first week.
Support tickets drop before they're filed
A 90-second walkthrough answers the questions users would have emailed about. Teams using video onboarding consistently report fewer repetitive how-do-I tickets in the first 30 days.
Every release, every video, still current
When your UI changes, update the video in minutes. No reshoot, no freelancer callback, no production cycle. Your onboarding content stays accurate as fast as your product ships.
Scale onboarding without scaling headcount
Video handles the repetitive explaining so your CS team focuses on strategic accounts. Onboard 5,000 users with the same quality and consistency you give to your first 50.
