I started building SlickWid.com 45 days ago and started it with typographic, music synced videos. I loved the product but unfortunately it could not find audience interest. Later, I took a gap and worked on other stuff.
Recently I observed interest and popularity in audience for the Bento Grids. They are simple, structured and organized, yet provide lot of information in a very short duration. I loved it and wanted SlickWid to able to make Bento Grids as videos just in few clicks by selecting appropriate grids.
I wanted to see if people actually like such videos. I spent a day and made a video in a very raw form. I saw people being interested about it. https://x.com/pramodk73/status/1742253741305450667?s=20
I wanted go deep little and started building interface and other layers for the product. After 4 days, I had the working app by which anyone can generate Bento Grid videos (4 seconds long). I definitely found it being more liked than the first form of videos.
I started adding templates to the app so that people don't have to build the video from scratch. Just pick the appropriate template, change text, colors, etc. and download.
I really think it can be a really good form of media for product announcements, stats, wraps, galleries, etc. Find more here https://slickwid.com and happy to provide free credits if someone is interested. Cheers!
Bento grids looks very professional design! Nice!
Yeah, I am trying to keep them look professional as well as much as possible :)
Very nice Design !!!
Glad to know that! While making it I thought no one would like it. So happy that lot of people liking it :)
Hey mate! I'm sorry to hear that you had trouble gaining traction. Keep at it; you just need to find the right fit. I'll try it out and I'm going to give deeper feedback
Yeah, I am just trying to learn from what I do and my best at any point. Hopefully things go better :)
I will be waiting for your feedback Germerlo!
So it's creating videos, but all the examples on the site are just static images? Why not show off the videos?
Also, nice page :)
Yeah, that makes sense. Thanks for the suggestion. Will make them videos :)
Of course! The information is presented neatly in your Bento Grid movies. They say so much in such a small amount of time, it's amazing.
True! I am trying make this app easy enough to create such videos easily under couple of minutes!
I love your landing page
Glad you liked :)
Hey, great idea and efforts. I like the landing page and its style! Have you any statistics about the bento grid usage/CVR or something? Would be great to learn more about it and whether it can be applied on all social media platforms (based in its format)!
