Developer tutorials that teach and convert without agency timelines
Video has become the go-to format for technical content. Create tutorial videos that help developers succeed with your platform. No 8-week production cycles. No agency budgets.

"Our tutorial completion rate is 12%. Developers drop off after the first minute."
You're in Developer Relations.
Your job is helping developers succeed with your platform.
That means tutorials.
But creating effective tutorial content is hard.
Written tutorials get skimmed.
Developers copy code without understanding context.
They hit errors and don't know why.
Your support queue fills with questions that would be answered if they'd read the whole tutorial.
$3,000-$5,000 per minute for professional technical video production
3-8 weeks typical agency production timeline
12% average completion rate for text-based tutorials
95% retention from video vs 10% from text tutorials
Every incomplete tutorial is a developer who didn't succeed with your platform.
From "I'll figure it out later" to "I got it working in 10 minutes"
Before ngram
- You publish a new API endpoint. You write documentation with code samples. Developers try to implement it. They hit authentication errors. They check the docs. The authentication section doesn't mention the specific header they need. They open a support ticket.
- You realize the docs skipped a step that seemed obvious to you but isn't to new developers. You update the docs. But developers have already moved on to a competitor with clearer content. Your completion rates stay low. Developer adoption stalls.
After ngram
- Same API endpoint. But this time you create a 3-minute tutorial video. You walk through the implementation from scratch. You show the authentication step explicitly. You demonstrate the expected output.
- Developers watch, follow along, and get it working in 10 minutes. No support tickets. No guessing. When the API updates next month, you record a new section in 15 minutes and publish the updated tutorial the same day.
- Your content stays current. Developers succeed. Adoption accelerates.

Professional tutorials from your screen recordings
Ngram transforms your developer walkthroughs into polished tutorial videos that teach effectively and stay current.
Record as you code
Walk through the implementation the way you'd show a developer on a call. Show the code, explain the concepts, demonstrate the results. Ngram adds professional polish: smooth transitions, zoom on important details, clean audio. Your authentic walkthrough becomes a professional tutorial.
Or create modular tutorials
Record segments for common patterns: authentication, basic requests, error handling. Combine relevant segments for each tutorial. Ngram stitches them seamlessly. When one segment needs updating, update just that segment. The rest stays current.
Either way, developers get tutorials that actually teach. Content that stays current because updates take hours, not weeks.
What changes when devrel tutorial video take minutes
95% retention vs 10% with text
Developers remember what they see. Video tutorials stick in ways that documentation doesn't. When developers retain what they learn, they succeed with your platform. Success leads to adoption. Adoption leads to growth.
Update tutorials when APIs change
Your platform ships constantly. Your tutorials should too. When videos take hours instead of weeks, you can update content the same day you update the API. Tutorials stay accurate. Developers stay unconfused.
Reduce support load
Most support questions are answered in your tutorials. When developers actually watch and complete tutorials, they ask fewer questions. Video completion rates drive support ticket reduction. Your DevRel team focuses on community, not repetitive support.
Scale developer education
You can't be on calls with every developer. Video scales your best explanations to everyone. One tutorial helps thousands of developers. Education becomes a competitive advantage, not a bottleneck.
