How to make a product video with AI (without a film crew)
Brief, draft, and polish a product or SaaS explainer video in the browser with StarCut's agent and timeline.
Start with a one-paragraph brief
Say who it is for, how long it should be, and the one thing viewers must remember. An agent works best with the same brief you would give a human editor.
From brief to export
A typical 30-second explainer:
- Upload screen recordings or product shots.
- Prompt: “30 seconds: the problem, three features, closing call to action.”
- Swap any line of voiceover or title on the timeline.
- Duplicate for a 9:16 version and export both.
Make it look like your brand
Adjust type, colors, and pacing by hand on the timeline. Keep a project as your template and duplicate it for the next launch.
Write the brief like you would for a human editor.
Questions
Can I use my own footage?
Yes. Upload recordings and ask the agent to assemble them.
What costs credits?
AI generation steps show their credit cost before they run; editing on the timeline is included.
