AI Video Editor for Startup Founders and SaaS Demos

Valmera is an AI video editor for founders who make their own content. Give it your product's URL and a few steps, and it records a demo with a visible cursor and zooms in on each click. Upload a founder talk, podcast appearance or screen recording, and the agent cuts it, captions it, and turns the best moments into clips for LinkedIn, X, TikTok and YouTube Shorts.

Built for early-stage founders, solo SaaS builders and the first marketing hire. Creating an account and uploading are free; editing requires a subscription. See plans.

What Valmera does for founders

Founder and SaaS demo jobs Valmera handles
JobWhat the agent does
Product demo from a URLGive the agent your public URL and 4–10 steps (click, type, scroll, hover). A browser records the site with a visible cursor, logs every click, and the edit zooms in and travels between the buttons.
Your own screen recordingUpload a recording of a private dashboard or native app. The agent cuts loading waits, zooms on the controls you name, and can enlarge and steady the cursor.
Founder talk or launch videoCleans up a talk to camera, adds captions, cuts to product footage while you describe it, and adds title cards and an end card.
Weekly founder contentTurns one recording (a podcast appearance, an AMA, a talk) into a batch of vertical clips for LinkedIn, X, TikTok and YouTube Shorts.
Launch versions16:9 for the landing page, 9:16 for social, 1:1 or 4:5 for feeds, from the same approved edit.

How to make a SaaS demo video with Valmera

  1. 1
    Pick one outcome
    Name the viewer, the one task or idea they should get, and where the video will live. One clear task beats a tour of every menu.
  2. 2
    Capture the product
    For a public page, ask the agent to record it from the URL with the steps you write; it won't type into password or payment fields. For a private dashboard or app, record it yourself with demo data and upload it.
  3. 3
    Cut the story
    Ask for the starting state, the essential action and the result. The agent trims waiting, renders a preview, checks it and reports what changed.
  4. 4
    Add emphasis and narration
    Ask for zooms on the controls that matter, a bigger cursor, short title cards, and your recorded narration or music under the picture. Captions follow any speech.
  5. 5
    Make versions and clips
    Ask for 9:16, 1:1 or 4:5 versions, and turn a founder talk into a batch of shorts. Each short is its own project you can revise.
  6. 6
    Export and ship
    Export a full-resolution MP4, then embed it on the landing page or post it yourself.

Founder-led content without an editor

The founders who post every week usually record once and cut many times. Record one longer piece (a talk to camera about a lesson you learned, a podcast appearance, a customer AMA) and upload it. Ask for shorts: Valmera picks complete stories, each with a setup and a payoff, and an editing agent frames each one for 9:16 and captions it. If you were a guest on someone else's podcast, tell the agent which speaker label is you and ask for your answers only, and check you have the host's permission to reuse it.

Revise any clip by chatting (“start on the second sentence”, “smaller captions”), export the batch, and post natively on LinkedIn, X, TikTok or YouTube. See how the same flow works for podcasts and repurposing YouTube videos.

A 45-second demo outline

A dependable shape for a landing-page or launch demo. Adjust the timing until the viewer can follow each action and read the result.

Trimming a loading wait helps pacing; keep enough of it that the demo doesn't imply something is instant when it isn't.

Prompts you can paste

Demo from a URL

Record a demo of https://[your-site].com: click “Features”, scroll to “Integrations”, hover over the Slack card, then click “See pricing”. Landscape. Zoom in on each click, add a title card “[your headline]” at the start, and end on our logo. Don't submit any forms.

Your screen recording

This is a demo-account recording. Keep the starting state, the report setup and the finished report; cut the failed attempt at [range] and the loading waits. Zoom in on the date selector at [time], make the cursor twice as big, and keep the full report visible at the end.

Founder talk

Tighten this 8-minute talk to camera to about 3 minutes: cut dead air, ums and retakes. Show the product clip while I describe the export feature, add clean captions, and end on a card that says [CTA].

Weekly clips from a podcast appearance

S1 is me. Make shorts from my answers only: complete stories about [topic 1] and [topic 2], 30–60 seconds, framed on me in 9:16, with bold captions.

Launch versions

From the approved demo, make a 9:16 version that fits the whole screen over a blurred background, and a 1:1 version for LinkedIn with the same captions.

Readable screens and private data

For a URL capture, zooms come from the recorded click positions, so the frame travels to the right button. For your own recording, the agent needs the click times or a description of the target before it zooms, because a timestamp alone doesn't say where on screen the click happened. Cursor enhancement finds the pointer, enlarges it up to 4x and adds a ripple at the click times you give.

Use demo data wherever you can. Blur, pixelate or black-bar covers a fixed rectangle, and erasing removes burned-in text, but neither follows text that scrolls, so check every second where something private appears. For a vertical version, ask for the whole screen over a blurred backdrop rather than a crop that cuts the interface.

Video demo or interactive demo?

A video plays one authored sequence and works anywhere: landing pages, social, sales emails. An interactive demo lets the viewer click through the product. If you need branching or hotspots, look at Arcade or Supademo, which both offer interactive formats as well as video (checked September 9, 2026). Valmera delivers MP4 video.

Limits

  • The URL recorder sees only the public site and won't type into password or payment fields; the capture is silent, so add narration you record.
  • Valmera doesn't generate voiceovers, video from text, or an interactive HTML demo.
  • Blurs, erasing and zooms work on fixed regions and positions; none of them track moving content.
  • Captions are burned in; no direct publishing; no team seats yet. Exports end with a brief Valmera end card.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, from your real product. Valmera can record a public page from a URL with a visible cursor following steps you write, or edit a screen recording you upload. It zooms on clicks, trims waiting and adds captions and title cards; you export the MP4. It doesn't invent an interface or build a clickable demo.
Give the agent the URL and 4–10 steps, such as click a button by its label, type into a field, scroll to a section or hover a menu. A browser records the public site as a visitor sees it, with a visible cursor, and returns the time and position of every click so the edit can zoom between them.
No. The recorder sees the public site in a fresh visitor session and won't type into password or payment fields. Record your logged-in dashboard yourself with demo data and upload it.
Who it's for, the smallest action that shows the value, and the result on screen. Open with a title card naming the result, show the action, hold on the result, then give one next step.
Record one longer piece each week (a talk to camera, a podcast appearance or an AMA), upload it, and ask Valmera for shorts. It picks complete stories, edits each into a captioned vertical, and you revise by chatting and post the files.
Use demo data where you can. Valmera can blur, pixelate or black out a fixed rectangle, or erase burned-in text, but a fixed region doesn't follow text that scrolls, so check every second where private data appears.
No. Valmera exports a video that plays an authored sequence. Interactive demo tools such as Arcade and Supademo let viewers click through the product themselves.
