@bochkovaleks thank you :)

It's straight-forward and smooth, I see this'd be a good use for content maker on social media! Looking forward for more features and customization, already love it!

@huaiyukhaw more coming soon! We will make it even better for you :)
Glen Creaser
Very cool! Way better than a simple, bland recording of a Zoom call...

@glen_creaser thanks for your feedback. Did you try the new webcam recording feature? You can record a video directly fro the platform if you want to do the talking-head style video for social media.

I love that Piktostory is able to help to produce small clip from my video, and it's very easy!
Masoud Mirzaei
Whoa! I really loved the onboarding experience and the sample video! Straight-forward, easy to understand and on-point. The interface is also simple and easy-to-use! Well done!
Ethan M
I believe this tool is definitely a great step in achieving ease of use when communicating online, especially since communication has become more virtual during the last year. The options to share across platforms and audiences is an increasingly essential feature. Good work team!
Christopher Armes
Really Interesting. Congrats on the launch

@agatakristo congrats on the launch. Love the concept. Yet to fully utilize this.

Maker
@aazar_ali_shad yes, please test it out! You are great on video and have so much valuable knowledge to share. You should do more of those on your LinkedIn 🙌

Definitely a good choice for content creator to create bite-size video with its user-friendly interface. Love that!

@ng_yit_tyn thanks for the feedback 💛
Petar Petrovic
Is there a time limit or minimum for creating shorter videos or is this entirely up to user?
Elvin Lee
Maker
@petar-petrovic in terms of the short video clip that you can create, it's up to you. So for example, if you've uploaded a 1 hour long webinar, you can just take out a 3 minute clip, or even a 10 second - totally based on the content you want to highlight!
Armin Jamak
Maker
@petar-petrovic Hi Petar! You can export clips from two subtitle lines (so around 3-4s of video). You can export as many clips as you'd like ✌️ What are you looking to achieve? :)
Jimi Desmet
The product looks amazing, congrats to the team! How long can the videos be? And about the "get 12x more shares for your video", is it a result the users of the beta version got? Cause this is huge! Great work!
Agata Krzysztofik
Maker
@jimi_desmet @jimi_desmet The length of the video depends on your Piktostory plan. You can upload a video of 60 minutes in Free and Lite, 90 minutes in Pro, and 120 minutes in Ultimate. There is no limit on the download. Regarding the 12x it's a statistic from G2 according to which social videos generate 1200% more shares than text and image content combined.

Congrats on the launch Piktostory team! I checked it again how it evolved since the beta launch and I like the more polished UI and speedy performance of the video rendering. I also noticed it now allows to record video from a webcam, coool! Btw I don't see this feature being mentioned anywhere in the product description - iis it something that's not yet available for everyone?
Agata Krzysztofik
Maker
@juniq thanks for your feedback! You are right. It's now also possible to record a new video directly from the platform. I actually was just using that feature to post a video about our launch on LinkedIn ;) Anyhow, good you noticed that it's not mentioned here. I will try to add it to our launch post on PH now. Thank youuuu
Bogdan Ionita
Super useful! Videos have great engagement, but are tough to handle money-wise
Elvin Lee
Maker
@bogdan_ionita thanks! Hopefully this will help you get those higher engagements!

@carlo_thissen Amazing to hear that! Curious to hear what do you have in mind to use it for? 😉

Congratulations on the launch! Malaysia boleh :)
Mauro Mequelussi
Very cool idea. Only detail that he only recognizes the English language. I uploaded a video in pt_BR but it transcribed in English.
Elvin Lee
Maker
@mauromequelussi thanks for the feedback! That's something we are considering to allow other language to be transcribed too - hopefully we can get to that soon to enable more use cases like yours!
Alie Wok
So fun and easy to use! Love how I can personalise my fonts, text as well. Great job, guys!
