"We spent more on our explainer video than on our first three months of hosting."
You are a startup founder who knows your product needs a 60-second explainer.
Every advisor says so.
Your landing page bounce rate confirms it.
96% of consumers watch explainer videos before buying, and you are the 4% who does not have one yet.
So you start looking.
Agencies quote $7,500 to $20,000 per finished minute and need 6 to 12 weeks.
You write a creative brief, sit through two discovery calls, wait for a storyboard draft, then wait again for revisions.
Meanwhile, your positioning shifts twice.
Board-level budget decision A single 60-second video requires the same approval chain as a quarter's worth of ad spend
96% of buyers watch an explainer before purchasing, yet most startups ship without one because production feels impossible
Outdated before launch day Your product changes faster than any agency or freelancer can keep up with
Template fatigue DIY tools produce videos that look identical to every other startup's explainer, killing the differentiation you worked so hard to build
Every week without a clear startup explainer video is another week prospects bounce off your homepage without understanding what you do.
From "just read the pitch deck" to "wait, who made this video?"

Professional explainers from what you already have
ngram takes whatever you have got - your pitch deck, product docs, landing page URL, or a rough screen recording - and builds a startup explainer video that tells a clear, compelling story.
Start from your existing content
Drop in your pitch deck, product brief, landing page URL, or feature doc. ngram extracts the key message, writes a script with a clear problem-solution-proof structure, and generates a complete explainer with visuals, motion graphics, and voiceover. You review the storyboard before anything renders, so you nail the narrative without touching a timeline.
Or start from a screen recording
Record a quick walkthrough of your product. ngram cleans it up with smart zooms, auto-cuts the dead air, adds branded captions and callouts, and layers in motion graphics to tell a cohesive story. Your rough 5-minute capture becomes a polished 60-second explainer in minutes.
Either way, you get a video that makes your startup look like it has a production budget. Because now, it kind of does.
