A scene from the Prospilo promo video, in 16:9

Made for how people watch a launch

Visitors look at many launches on the day and decide in seconds, often with the sound off. The film is built for that.

  • Readable with the sound off

    The story is told in big text on screen, with music that helps but is never needed.

  • The product comes first

    Your product appears early, as an animated mock-up or your own screenshots in a browser window or phone.

  • Short enough to finish

    30 seconds: the problem, your product and the reason to try it today.

  • One film for the whole launch

    The 16:9 film for the gallery and YouTube, and 15-second cuts in 9:16 and 1:1 for the X, LinkedIn and Instagram posts that send people to your page.

  • Ready days ahead

    The YouTube link should be in place before launch. Make the film the week before, and change its text right up to the day for free.

  • Before the site is public

    No public website yet? Describe the product in a few lines and add screenshots, and Promovilo writes the film from that.

Questions

What video does Product Hunt accept?

Product Hunt plays gallery videos from YouTube, so you add a link rather than a file. Use the full YouTube address, not a shortened one, and do not set the video to private, or it will not load.

How long should a Product Hunt video be?

Short. Visitors see many launches that day, so a 30-second film that shows the product early asks less of them than a long tour. A full demo can live on your own site.

Can I make it before the product is public?

Yes. Describe the product in a few lines instead of giving a website, and add screenshots if you have them. Films stay private until you share or publish them.

Can I use the cuts to promote the launch?

Yes. A bought film may be used for any lawful purpose, worldwide: in your posts, emails and paid ads, music included.

What does a Product Hunt launch video cost?

Previews are free, so you can try a few angles before you pay. A standard film costs $29 and a unique film, designed from scratch, $89, plus VAT where it applies. You need no subscription.
