Product launch videos used to take weeks. Hera Launch makes them in seconds, from a single prompt. This works because Hera is opinionated. It works like a motion design studio and decides pacing, typography, motion curves, and easing for you. We built it for product teams that want to launch fast and often: 10 minutes from idea to finished video, on a monthly subscription.
Hey PH 👋 Peter here, one of the co-founders of Hera.
We started Hera because making a good launch video is unreasonably hard. Hiring a motion design studio costs thousands and takes weeks. Doing it yourself in After Effects takes weeks of learning. Most AI video tools sit in between: technically capable, but the output looks like AI made it, because they have no taste of their own. The user has to bring the taste through the prompt, and that's a lot to ask.
So we made a different bet with Hera Launch, our new extension of Hera: the AI should have the taste, not the user. We baked in opinions about pacing, typography, motion curves, and easing, the way a good motion design studio would. The user describes what they want to show. Hera handles how it looks.
The surprising part is what this unlocks. Once a launch video takes 10 minutes instead of 2 weeks, you stop saving them for the big quarterly moments. You start making one for every feature, every release, every announcement.
We built this for product teams that ship fast and want to launch often. If that's you, try it at [launch.hera.video](http://launch.hera.video). And if you're launching something soon and want a hand getting your first video right, DM me. Happy to give you free access and walk you through it personally.
Would love your feedback.
Love the focus here. Launch videos are the thing every solo founder pushes to last and then panics over the night before. Quick one -what's the typical asset list someone needs to bring vs what Hera generates from scratch? Congrats on shipping.
Would have been great to have enough credits to try out atleast/remix one template!
launch videos are one of those things that always feels really hard. curious how the AI handles the gap between 'studio-quality' and 'actually looks like my product' as those two can be pretty different
Congrats on the launch @peter_tribelhorn , was struggling to get generate videos that looks like my brand (openbandwidth.live), will definitely give a try and give a review :)
Great idea guys! Launching soon as well, might use your product to ship our video fast. P.S.: congrats on product of the day!
Congrats @peter_tribelhorn I was hesitant about the result, but after trying the first result got me excited and even trying to export the video and use it as my next launch. Well done guys. One more thing to think about adding is the animation sounds, background music, and voice over.
I've been a video editor for years and motion design has never been my strongest area. This looks super useful
Good job Peter! I was able to quickly make a decent video and with a few edits it's just what I need. What new features are coming?
This is the sleekest animation tool we have ever used. Way better than the replit slop
Hera sounds a bit funny as read by a Ukrainian..:) Congrats on the launch!
Congratulations @peter_tribelhorn I tried it on phone and went with the default prompt from my website, it did a good job with a good starter video that I can play around with for a little bit and end up with some great results. I felt loading took too much for the website fetch, I think even more than the actual video creation. Again, a great product and definitely solves a pain. Good luck with your launch.
200K animations in 2 weeks is wild. What's the #1 use case you're seeing, social content, product demos, or something you didn't expect?
The director/designer/animator agents thing is interesting, didn't expect that approach.
Hey Hera team! Congratulations and good luck with the launch. I tested your app a bit, can't say I got WOW effect at the first touch, maybe I need to experiment more with some real tasks. But definitely love the clear path to the first result and the UI
Screen studio videos all look the same now ngl. ready for something with more range
