The Product Demo Playbook
Turn your product into polished demo videos without a camera or studio
Built for indie hackers who need to sell their product visually but have no video budget or on-camera confidence. This stack lets you produce professional-grade product demos, explainers, and social proof videos using AI avatars, voiceover, and motion graphics.

How to set it up

HeyGen lets you appear on screen or use a custom avatar to walk viewers through your product without filming a single frame yourself.
The most realistic AI voice generation platform
When your avatar's built-in voice isn't convincing enough, ElevenLabs provides the most realistic AI voice cloning available to narrate demos in your own voice.
Turn text descriptions into motion graphics videos
Great for animated feature breakdowns or onboarding sequences where a live avatar isn't needed — just describe the scene and get a polished motion graphic.
