The videos can be used for various use cases and industries. The company's platform can be integrated with existing workflows to automate personalized responses to customers' actions. The platform also includes features such as hyper-customizable templates, personalized video backgrounds, and customized call-to-action buttons to enhance customer engagement. The company's client base includes AB Tasty, Allurion, Ramp, Verkada, and Genesys.

The company generates revenue by selling its product on an intro and business subscription basis.
