Velocity5.0

AI explainer video creation platform that turns scripts into animated explainer videos.

www.simpleshow.com ↗

simpleshow buries its occasional product news inside a steady marketing blog.

◆Current state
The feed is mostly explainer-video marketing content — multilingual video, training-video buying advice, and now a guide to measuring video ROI. Genuine product news does appear, but rarely and without any signal in the title: the mask frames release in April replaced most static layouts and is the only capability change in the visible window. Everything more recent is educational.
◆Where it's heading
Publishing has slowed and shifted toward buyer-justification topics — ROI measurement, software selection criteria — which serve procurement rather than existing users. The product thread that does surface points at AI-assisted creation and conversational video, but it arrives too infrequently to read as a roadmap. Judging this feed means reading past rank 6, since a release can sit months back with a blog-shaped headline.
◆Prediction
Expect the marketing cadence to continue and product news to remain occasional and unlabelled. Any next release is most likely to extend the template and style work that mask frames began, though the feed gives little basis for a confident call.
