Moshion

Hi, I'm Guillaume, the indie hacker building Moshion.

I'm a documentary photographer and video creator, and I have a bunch of YouTuber friends across different niches. We kept running into the same problem: if you want your videos to look professional, you either hire a motion designer, find someone on Fiverr, or spend weeks learning After Effects. For most solo creators, none of those options are realistic on a per-video basis.

The workaround was to just skip the animated visuals entirely, which meant simpler-looking videos, or to spend disproportionate time on a 10-second map animation that most viewers won't even notice took effort.

We built Moshion to fix that. You paste your script, and it suggests animations to include. Or you just describe what you want and it generates it. The output is a proper MP4, ready to drop into any timeline.

The other thing I wanted to get right: once the animation is generated, you shouldn't have to re-prompt every small adjustment. I've used enough credit-based AI tools to know how quickly that gets frustrating. Change the font, whoops, that's a credit. Move the text left, another one. So in Moshion, direct edits (colour, position, size, typography) happen through a normal interface. The AI is there for generation and bigger changes, not for things you could do faster with a click.

The goal is to give solo creators the same visual quality as a team, so they can spend their time on what actually matters: telling a good story.

Happy to answer questions about Moshion and the journey building it.
