After · the film LaunchReel made from it
$39 buys the Starter pack: one launch video (the brief, the storyboard and a film of about 30 seconds in 16:9 from your real screenshots), a clean 1080p export, and 10 credits left for shot changes.
One-time $39, no subscription. Stripe Checkout asks for your email. Nothing runs before you pay; after payment you press Start and the brief, the storyboard and the film follow by themselves.
A hardware product video shows what a physical thing does for a person and what is in the box. LaunchReel AI reads your product page and uses the pictures you add to build a film of about 30 seconds: motion design around your photos, with specs and benefits set as real type.
By the LaunchReel team
From $39, one-time. One film fits in the Starter pack. Nothing runs before you pay; Stripe Checkout asks for your email.
What is a hardware product video?
It is not a 3D render and it is not live-action footage. If you need either, shoot or render them separately; this film is the clear, quick explanation that sits next to them.
- Film: about 30 seconds, 16:9, captions burned in, AI narration and an instrumental music bed on by default.
- Output: H.264 MP4 at 25 fps, 16:9: a 1280×720 preview, clean exports in 1920×1080 (1080p) or 3840×2160 (4K), and short cuts of 5, 6, 8, 10 seconds in 16:9, 9:16, 1:1.
- Price: from $39, one-time credit packs, no subscription.
- Time: the 5-second ad in about 4 minutes, the full film about 2 minutes after you ask (measured 8 October 2026; a queue can add a few minutes).
Who is it for?
- Makers launching a gadget, a wearable, a smart-home device or an accessory.
- Teams with a product page and good photos, but no video for the shop, the listing or the launch.
- Founders preparing a crowdfunding page who need a short film for social posts.
What LaunchReel reads from what you give it
LaunchReel reads only public pages (the home page and up to three inner pages such as pricing, features or docs, fetched as LaunchReelBot, honouring robots.txt). It answers six questions from them, each with the page it came from: what the product is, who it is for, the pain it removes, how it compares, why you built it and how a founder would pitch it. It also takes:
- What the device does and the problem it removes, in your words.
- The specs and features your page lists, such as battery, size, connections and materials.
- What is in the box and the platforms it works with, as stated.
- Your colours, typefaces and logo.
What is in the film
The film is about 30 seconds at 25 frames per second. It is drawn as motion design from your real screens, not generated frame by frame, so text stays exact. A 30-second storyboard runs to about seven shots. Today:
- The everyday annoyance, then the device as the answer.
- Your product photos, framed and animated, with one caption per feature.
- A spec beat in real type: the three numbers people ask about.
- A closing shot with where to buy or back it.
- Narrated: narration is on by default: a female or male AI voice reads one or two lines per shot in the film's language, and you can switch it off. Captions are burned in, so it also reads with the sound off. A quiet instrumental music bed sits under the narration by default.
- Your look: a palette, type pairing and logo taken from your site, a light or dark stage, and a pace of cuts. Two products do not come out as the same film.
How it works in 3 steps
- Paste your product page and add photos. Paste the address of your product page and add up to 6 photos of the device, in the best light you have. Stripe Checkout asks for your email and takes payment before the film starts.
- Read the brief and the storyboard as they are written. A writing desk running on Claude Opus 5.5 answers six questions from your pages, writes the brief and a shot-by-shot storyboard, and shows each piece with its sources. You can correct any line by chat, before or after the film is drawn.
- Take the film. The 5-second ad arrives in about 4 minutes; the full film of about 30 seconds follows about 2 minutes after you ask for it. Keep the 720p copy, change shots by chat, or buy a clean 1080p or 4K export.
What to give it: input requirements
- A website address, a GitHub repository, a sentence about the product, or just its name (we look for the site and show you which one we found).
- Optional: up to 6 pictures (png, jpg or webp) and a .zip of up to 50 MB. Use them for screens that are not public.
- To start you pay $39 for one launch video in Stripe Checkout, which asks for your email. Nothing is generated before that.
- A public product page or crowdfunding page.
- Up to 6 photos of the device, png, jpg or webp; they are the picture of your product in the film.
Output specs
- Full film: about 30 seconds, 16:9, MP4. Clean 1080p (1920×1080) costs 10 credits, 4K (3840×2160) costs 20. Captions are burned in and an .srt file comes with every clean export.
- Sound: AI narration (female or male voice, one or two lines per shot, in the film's language) is mixed into the MP4 by default; switch it off or change the voice on the order page without spending credits, and the music bed is changed or muted by asking in the chat. A narration .srt is linked there.
- 720p copy: every project keeps a 720p copy with a small corner badge and a one-second end card with your domain. The six answers, the brief, the storyboard, the 5-second ad and the preview of the full film come with the project.
- Short cuts: 5, 6, 8, 10 seconds in 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, with platform-safe margins. Badge previews of every cut cost no credits; a clean cut is 6 credits.
- Files: MP4 and .srt only. No GIF. The project's source files are not included.
How much does it cost?
Credits are sold in one-time packs, in US dollars, with no subscription. Sales tax or VAT is added at checkout where it applies. Packs: Starter 60 credits $39, Launch 160 credits $89, Growth 400 credits $199, Studio 1000 credits $449, Agency 2000 credits $879. Credits never expire.
- Starter ($39) is enough for one film. A typical launch video, the film plus five shot edits and a clean 1080p export, comes to about 60 credits, and Starter holds 60.
- Pay first: nothing is generated, and no trial render runs, until you buy a pack. Before paying you can open the public examples, the style pages and the pricing page.
- If a job fails, the credits come back automatically. See pricing for every credit price.
What you can edit afterwards
- By chat or in the Storyboard view: say what to change in plain words, or edit a line directly. Only that shot is rewritten and redrawn; the others stay as they were.
- A shot change costs 2 credits, charged only when the change lands. Questions are free and every version of a shot is kept.
- Look and colours: change colours, type, stage and mood from the style panel; rewriting the whole storyboard costs 20 credits.
How long does it take?
- The 5-second ad: about 4 minutes after the project starts.
- The full film (about 30 seconds): about 2 minutes after you ask for it. The dark cinematic Stage version takes about 5 minutes.
- One writing desk handles briefs in turn, so a queue can add a few minutes. Those are measured figures from 8 October 2026, not guarantees.
What it cannot do
- Render the product in 3D or fabricate shots of it in use. It animates the photos you give it and never invents a picture of the device.
- Replace unboxing or lifestyle footage. It is a short explainer built from pictures and type.
- Live-action footage, photoreal scenes or 3D product renders. The film is motion design built from words and screens.
- Screens that do not exist. The engine never invents an interface; give it screenshots of anything that is not public.
- A human voice. The narration is an AI voice and the music is an AI-composed instrumental bed; for your own recorded voice, switch the narration off and add it in an editor.
- Other shapes. The full film is 16:9 only. 9:16 and 1:1 come as short cuts of 5, 6, 8, 10 seconds.
Refunds and who owns the video
- Refunds: a credit pack is fully refunded on request until you download a clean export, and after that it is not refundable. If we cannot make your video, any pack you bought for it is refunded in full. Write to support@launchreel.ai with your project link. See the refund policy.
- Ownership: you get full commercial usage rights for the delivered video. Customer content is not sold and not used to train models. LaunchReel AI is operated by YK TECH INC.
Questions about a hardware product video
Is this a product render?
No. It is motion design around the photos you add, with real type for the specs. Nothing is rendered in 3D.
How many photos should I add?
Up to 6. A clear front shot, a detail shot and a shot of the device in context give the storyboard enough to work with.
Can I use it for a crowdfunding page?
Yes, as a short film for the page and for posts. For the full pitch format see Kickstarter video maker.
Will it state specs I did not give?
No. Specs come from your page or your note, and any line can be changed in the chat.
Is this AI video generation?
It is an AI-assisted product video tool. A writing desk running on Claude Opus 5.5 reads your pages and writes the brief and every shot, and a code-based engine draws the film from your real screenshots, colours, fonts and logo. It does not generate photoreal people or invented interfaces, so text stays exact and changing one line redraws only that shot.
How much does a hardware product video cost, and do I pay first?
You pay first. Nothing runs until you pay; Stripe Checkout asks for your email. Packs are Starter 60 credits $39, Launch 160 credits $89, Growth 400 credits $199, Studio 1000 credits $449, Agency 2000 credits $879, with tax or VAT added at checkout where it applies. A typical launch video comes to about 60 credits, so the $39 Starter pack covers one film with a clean 1080p export. Credits never expire.
Does the film have narration or music?
Narration and music both. Narration is on by default: a female or male AI voice reads one or two lines per shot in the film's language, and you can switch it off. Changing it later re-mixes the sound without redrawing the film or spending credits, and if the voice step fails the film ships without narration. Captions are burned in, and an .srt file comes with every clean export.
How long does it take?
The 5-second ad is ready about 4 minutes after the project starts. The full film of about 30 seconds is drawn when you ask for it and is ready about 2 minutes later. A queue can add a few minutes.
Can I change one shot without redoing the film?
Yes. Say what to change in the chat, or edit the line in the Storyboard view. Only that shot is redrawn. A shot change is 2 credits, taken only when the change lands.
What if my product is not public yet or sits behind a login?
LaunchReel reads only public pages. Add up to 6 screenshots of private or logged-in screens when you paste, and the storyboard is built from those. The engine never invents an interface.
Can I get a refund?
Yes, until you download a clean export. Before that a pack is refunded in full on request; after it, packs are not refundable. If we cannot make your video, the pack you bought for it is refunded in full.
Who owns the video, and which language is it in?
You get full commercial usage rights for the delivered video. The brief and the film are written in your site's language.
