Explain anything
in a minute of animation.
Type an idea, approve the script, and get a clear animated explainer in tall, wide and square. AI-assisted and built in code, so changes take hours, not weeks.
Not a video: this explainer is drawn live in your browser, by the same code that makes our films.

Clear videos, without the editing.
From one idea to a finished film
Tell us what should be clear, who it's for and your own angle. We write the script, draw the scenes, add narration, captions and music.
Accurate by design
We never invent facts. Anything we need from you is marked in the script, and every number in a studio film has a source.
You stay in control
Approve the script, approve the look, then comment at any second of the video. Because it's code, changes take hours.
Live, not a video
Drag to cancel the noise.
This figure is drawn by code in your browser right now. Noise-cancelling headphones play a flipped copy of the sound; when the copy lines up, the two waves cancel. Slide it out of line and watch what happens.
Showhow builds figures like this for your own pages: a mechanism, a formula, a pricing model, made interactive. Interactive figure, $300.
Make it yourself, or have it made.

Questions.
What is Showhow?
A studio and an app for short animated explainers. Every video is AI-assisted and built in code: the script, the scenes, the captions and the music are generated and assembled by our production pipeline, then checked before you see them.
How long does a video take?
You see an editable script within a minute. Preview stills and the finished video follow within hours, not days. Studio projects have a fixed turnaround in the quote.
Who writes the script?
We draft it from your idea, your audience and your own angle, and you edit and approve it. We never invent facts: anything we need from you is marked [FILL] until you add it.
Which formats do I get?
Tall 9:16, wide 16:9 and square 1:1, each laid out for its frame (not cropped), with captions. Music is our own score, so it's safe on any platform.
Can it use my brand and my voice?
Yes: upload your logo, colors and fonts, and use a stock voice or your own recorded narration. A model of your own voice is made only with your written consent.
Who owns the video?
You do. Your videos, scripts and files are private by default; we never publish or reuse them without your permission, and we delete them on request.
Do you promise views or sales?
No. We make the explanation clear; we don't promise views, income or any other outcome.
