What is a product launch video?

A product launch video is a short film, usually under a minute, that shows a new product or feature working, so people understand it before they read about it. Teams post it on launch day, put it on the homepage and add it to release notes.

A Demosmith product film is a launch video made by AI from a recorded demo of your real product, built for SaaS teams that ship often. Nobody films the screen and nobody edits a timeline.

What to put ina product launch video

Every Demosmith film follows the shape that makes launch videos work. Tap a part to jump to it.

  1. Open on the outcomeOne line on what the viewer gets. Feature names can wait.
  2. Show the product doing the jobA few real moments: a click, a choice, the result appearing.
  3. Give every moment a short headlineA few words, so it reads at a glance with the sound off.
  4. Let the camera follow the cursorThe eye goes where the action is, so nobody hunts around a full screen.
  5. End on one call to actionOne line on the end card, and nothing else to choose from.
  6. Keep it under a minuteLong enough to show the result, short enough to watch in a feed.

Most features go out with a screenshot, because a video means booking someone, recording the product for them and waiting on edits. Here is how the usual ways to get one compare.

Product launch video FAQ

A product film is a 16:9 launch video that Demosmith makes from a demo it recorded of your product. It has an opening title, a few moments from the product, an end card, motion titles and music. You pick a style and can change the words, the intro, the outro and the music.

Under a minute works for most launches: long enough to show the result, short enough to watch in a feed. A Demosmith film shows a few moments from your demo, so a short demo makes a short film.

Open on the outcome in one line, show the product doing the job in a few real moments with a short headline each, follow the cursor so viewers know where to look, use music and titles that work with the sound off, and end on one call to action. Demosmith films follow that shape.

Yes. Give Demosmith a link to your product and a sentence about what to show. Its agent opens the product in a cloud browser, clicks through the flow and records the demo, and the launch video is made from those screens. If the product needs a login, add a test account.

No. Demosmith records the product itself and builds the film from that recording. There is no screen recorder and no timeline. You choose a style, change any words you want, and create the film.

Yes. Make your demo in any of 31 languages, including Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Portuguese and Arabic, and the film comes out in that language, titles and closing line included.

No. A product film uses music and motion titles, so it works with the sound off in a feed. If you want narration, the demo video Demosmith makes from the same run has an AI voiceover.

Yes. Turn on sharing to get a public page and an embed code. Only people with the link can find the page, and stopping sharing turns the link off straight away.

Make the film again. Your last choices are filled in, your current film stays up until the new one is ready, and the shared link and every embed then show the new film.

No. Before a film is made, Demosmith swaps people's names and email addresses on your screens for made-up ones.
