Summary

ngram is one of the best AI video generators I’ve tested for product marketing. It delivers impressive first-draft videos that can save dozens of hours of work, although AI revisions aren’t always consistent and some manual editing is still needed. Overall, it’s an excellent choice for SaaS founders and marketers who want to create high-quality launch videos without a full production team.

How ngram Performed on a Real Marketing Project

how ngram performed
The first draft was surprisingly close to my final version and only needed a few manual edits.

The first video I got from ngram for our campaign was around 90% publish-ready. The quality really impressed me, which isn’t an easy task since I have high standards as a content creator who has already recorded and edited +100 videos.

The animations, motions, and the flow of the video exactly nailed the feeling I wanted to create, and ngram worked well with the assets and prompts I provided. Most importantly, it didn’t have the generic “AI-generated” look that many AI video tools still struggle with.

However, the video was not perfect and needed some adjustments to reach 100% publishable content according to my standards.

And this is where I started to feel ngram’s limitations.

It makes changes based on prompts, and while I tried to be really accurate with the instructions, it did not work out in some cases. So, in the end, I started to make some final adjustments in my video editor.

In the end, I only needed a handful of manual edits before exporting the final version. Overall, I estimate ngram saved me around 30–40 hours of work and roughly $500–$2,000 in production costs.

To sum it up, my experience with ngram was great, but not perfect. After creating more versions for the launch video of Floviu, I realized that even if you get only an 80-90% publishable video with ngram, it will be worth the investment.

Pain points

You’ll Get the Most Value from ngram If…

What is ngram?

ngram home page
The homepage made it clear that ngram is built for creating product and marketing videos.

ngram is an AI-powered video creation platform for product teams, marketers, and SaaS founders. It automatically transforms text, URLs, documents, and raw screen recordings into polished, branded videos.

During the process, it generates voiceovers, motion graphics, transitions, and captions and combines them into a high-quality video.

How I created my marketing video for Floviu with ngram

Let me reveal my experience with ngram step-by-step.

What I Learned Before Clicking “Generate”

ngram type of video
I liked that ngram offers templates for different use cases instead of starting from a blank page.

When starting the process, you can select the type of video you want to create with ngram. As mentioned, I selected the product launch for my SaaS.

ngram create product launch
I started by choosing the video type, narration, and style before uploading my assets for the launch video.

After, you can select the length and the platform where you want to primarily publish the video. You can also provide additional information like text and a URL to give ngram more context for the video.

I created my videos around one minute, and my main platform was YouTube. Since Floviu’s website was not ready when testing only the app, I described the idea for the video.

Then, I uploaded videos, images, and selected the narration.

But the most interesting part was the style. I mostly used the auto, but if you have clear ideas in your mind, you can opt for the paper cutout, 3D Pop, Doodle, and other styles.

I loved the level of depth here, as I could choose the story flow, background music, watermark, subtitles, and target audience.

Based on my experience, the better your inputs, the fewer AI credits you’ll spend on revisions later.

Also, I recommend you start the process once you have the application and website, and a clear idea of your target audience and your aim for the video. Otherwise, you will just burn your credits, as it will require many edits inside and even outside ngram.

What Happened After ngram Generated the Video

ngram what happened after
The storyboard made it much easier to spot which scenes needed adjustments and which were already good to go.

The whole video generation process took around 2 hours. ngram created the scenes, background music, script, motions, and more.

And honestly, the quality was surprisingly high. As I mentioned above, it was almost in a publishable stage for me. My expectations are probably higher than those of most founders because I’ve produced and edited more than 100 videos. That made the quality even more impressive.

So, the fact that ngram delivered this quality impressed me.

ngram generated video
After the video was generated, I could review every scene individually before making changes.

It breaks down the whole video into scenes, and with its built-in video editor, you can make some high-level changes. However, ngram was not designed for advanced video editing.

You can split and delete scenes, change background color, and move the voiceovers. And basically that’s it. Nonetheless, these settings are sufficient for making a few smaller adjustments before exporting, especially if you don’t have a subscription for a dedicated video editor.

Until this point, my experience with ngram has been flawless, and I was impressed by its capabilities.

Refining the Video with AI

ngram refining
I used the chat to regenerate individual scenes, although AI didn’t always interpret my requests correctly.

On the left side, you can ask ngram to make changes, such as replacing pictures, removing scenes, choosing a different voiceover, changing the visual style, and more.

One thing I quickly realized is that asking AI to modify an existing scene is much harder than generating the first version. Small edits often affected other parts of the video, so I got the best results by making larger changes in my video editor instead.

It offers plenty of avatars and voiceover options. Personally, I only used the voiceovers since I did not need an avatar in my launching video. Nevertheless, they can be useful for “how-to” type videos.

Making changes in the voiceover was easy and relatively fast.

ngram video modifying
Switching between AI voices was quick, and I appreciated having multiple narration options available.

However, when I started asking for modifications to the video, things sometimes went wrong. For example, I asked to remove a person from the scenes. It was successfully removed. Afterward, I asked to make a scene longer, and suddenly the person appeared again.

This was frustrating sometimes. Luckily, there is an option to revert to previous versions, so it did not affect the video negatively. But still, all the changes require AI credits, so you have to be cautious about what you ask from AI.

Also, I had to wait around 10 minutes to get one change. So, it is also time-consuming, particularly if you make changes throughout numerous scenes.

After making the most crucial AI adjustments, I took over the editing from there, partly using the built-in editor and partly my video editor, and I finalized the video.

Cost vs value

ngram pricing
Based on my testing, the Plus plan offers the best balance between AI credits and value.

If you choose the Free plan, you will get 300 credits, 720p export with a watermark, and 30 sec AI generation. In my opinion, this will be only sufficient to get a quick look at the capabilities of ngram.

The Basic plan is $23.20 monthly with annual billing. You will get 1800 credits, 3 minutes of AI generation, unlimited manual edits, AI text generation, and access to the default models.

If you need ngram for creating a longer video, the Plus plan is $47.20 per month billed annually. It gives you access to 6 minutes of AI generation, brandkit, and 3600 monthly credits.

In case you are really serious about content, you can choose the Pro plan for $239.20. You will receive 18,000 AI credits, 30 minutes of AI generation, team access, and more.

For me, the Plus plan offers the best balance between AI credits and flexibility if you’re creating product videos regularly.

Final thoughts: ngram review

ngram is an exciting video generation platform, and the best AI video generator I’ve tested so far. Its output is super high quality, and it saves a lot of time even if you need to make some edits afterward.

The limitations I hit are the change requests, but apart from that, ngram performed really well for our marketing project.

Once Floviu launches, I’ll update this review with the final marketing video so you can judge the output yourself.
