What people use StartupAid for

Five jobs the platform is built around, and the products each one uses. They all run on the same account and API key.

  • Describe what you're launching, the date and who it's for. Launch Plans returns a dated schedule of teasers, the announcement and follow-ups across email, social and video, with each piece drafted for you to edit.

    Make the launch clip with text to video or a talking video, and pick the networks when you generate it so it posts as soon as it's ready. The announcement email goes to your list from your own domain. If your product posts conversion events, the campaign shows how many customers it brought in.

  • Onboarding and verifying users

    Uses

    Check a phone number at sign-up with a code sent over WhatsApp. We can generate and verify the code, or deliver one you made.

    Send the welcome email from your own domain and start an onboarding sequence from the signup event. The sequence can branch on whether someone opened the last email, and push (free) reaches people in your app by your own user ID.

  • Selling across countries

    Uses

    Show prices in the buyer's currency with live rates for 230+ currencies, including crypto and precious metals. Set your own spread on a pair and each conversion returns the market rate, your rate and your margin.

    The rate and time used are stored with every conversion, and historical rates are there for invoices and month-end reconciliation.

  • Give points for things you can check: a scanned QR code, a paid Shopify or Stripe order, a referral, a daily check-in. Members spend them on rewards you choose and sign in to see their balance with a code we email them. Free for your first 100 members.

    Top Fans ranks the people who engage with you most on social and gives them a public page with prizes to claim. Lifecycle email covers the rest: win-back sequences, a follow-up for people who ignored a campaign, and sends timed to the hour each person usually opens.

  • For explainers and product updates, Talking video puts an AI presenter on camera reading your script, with an avatar from the library or one made from your photo, made with StartVid, our own presenter model, or Veo. For courses and pitches, Slides to Video narrates a deck, or writes one from a topic for your avatar to teach.

    For tutorials you've already recorded, Voice Swap re-voices the screen recording from a script you can edit and adds a lip-synced avatar bubble. For longer stories, Movie Maker takes an idea or a screenplay (.docx, .pdf or .fdx), keeps each character's look the same from shot to shot, lip-syncs the dialogue, and assembles the scenes into one film.
