You shipped. Now comes the part nobody warned you about.

The launch post needs a video. So you screen-record your app, drop royalty-free music over it, and watch it get 40 views. Hiring an editor costs $300 and a week of back-and-forth. After Effects costs your weekend. So most launches go out with a screenshot — and look like it.

Your product took months. Its video should take 40 seconds.

From link to launch video

01

Paste your link

LaunchOtter reads your live site — logo, colors, fonts, copy, screenshots. 8 brand signals, zero uploads, zero forms.

02

AI directs the cut

A director model picks from 23 scene types — typed intros, scrolling site shots, device mockups, feature checklists — and scores it to music.

03

Edit, then export

A full studio in your browser: timeline, layers, text, sound effects. Export up to 4K MP4 — landscape for X, portrait for Reels.

Made with LaunchOtter

Questions

Do I need to sign up?
Yes — a free account (email or Google) takes a few seconds, then you paste your URL and watch your video get made. No credit card to start.
How long does it take?
About 40 seconds. You paste a link, the AI reads your brand and directs the video, and you land in the editor with a finished cut.
Is it really free?
Yes — creating, previewing, editing, and exporting a watermarked video is free. You only pay $9 (one-time) to remove the watermark from a project, or $47/year (about $4/month) for up to 24 videos a year.
Does it actually use my brand?
Yes. It reads your live site’s logo, colors, fonts, copy, and screenshots, so the video looks like you — not a template.
Can I edit the video?
Fully. There’s a real studio in your browser — timeline, scenes, text, layers, music, and sound effects — or just re-direct the whole thing with a prompt.
What formats do I get?
Both: landscape (16:9) for X and YouTube, and portrait (9:16) for Reels, TikTok, and Shorts. Export up to 4K MP4.
Can I get a refund?
Yes — the $9 unlock comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee. See our Refund Policy.
What happens to my data?
We use it only to make your video. Read our Privacy Policy.
