Animated explainers

Your products explained, as fast as you build them.

On-brand animation for launches, onboarding, and social, bought in 30-second credits. Every piece is scripted, animated, and checked by a person before it ships.

Built for teams with a product, solution, or service that's hard to explain in one sentence.

What's included

Motion tells 10,000 words.

On-brand animated video for launches, onboarding, sales, and social, bought in 30-second credits each quarter. Scripted, animated, and checked by a person.

Sample work

Three examples of what we can do.

Each sample runs 25 seconds, so each one uses a single credit. Zoom out, follow one thing, or tell one moment.

Wayline · Fleet charging

Zoom out

From one delivery to one route, one depot, one city, then the whole network.

25 seconds · 1 credit

Ledra · Accounts payable

Follow the invoice

One invoice, from the inbox to closed books, in six beats.

25 seconds · 1 credit

Zedly · Sleep and training app

One bad night

A short night, a moved workout, and a better Thursday, told on phone and watch.

25 seconds · 1 credit

Spec work. Ledra, Wayline, and Zedly are invented brands, made to show our process. They aren't real companies, and the names and figures in them are illustrative.

Credits

How do 30-second credits work?

One credit is 30 seconds of finished animation. Each piece uses credits by its length, rounded up, so anything under 30 seconds still uses one credit.

Every credit includes

  • A script or outline written from your product and your claims
  • Animation in your colours, type, and product UI
  • Captions and licensed music
  • Two revision rounds
  • Files in 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1

How length counts

Up to 30 seconds
1 credit
31 to 60 seconds
2 credits
61 to 90 seconds
3 credits

Credits can't be split across pieces. Unused credits roll over one quarter.

FAQ

Questions we hear a lot

What does it cost?+

It depends on how many credits a quarter you need. Book a 30-minute call and we'll give you an exact number, not a range.

What counts as a credit?+

One credit is 30 seconds of finished animation. A piece up to 30 seconds uses one credit, 31 to 60 seconds uses two, and so on. Anything under 30 seconds still uses a full credit.

Can we split one credit into two 15-second clips?+

No. Each piece uses at least one credit, and each credit is delivered in one format: 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1.

Do you do voiceover?+

Not yet. Every piece ships with captions and licensed music, built to work on mute in social feeds.

How is this different from your UGC video?+

Explainers are animated product stories for software teams. UGC-style video is creator-style ads, mostly for consumer brands.
