2000 paid users in 9 months!
We really can't believe quickly VEED.IO has grown. To say that we have imposter syndrome is an understatement.
We first started working on VEED as a side project back in late 2017. Back then we wanted to make a video editor that was simple and easy to use.
Below is an early design of what we originally planned to build.
We went full time on VEED about 12 months ago and started charging for the product in early June last year. Since then the product has evolved a lot into what Is now, a fully-fledged video editor (almost) yet this is not as simple a taking IMovie and putting it online, there are a lot of small details and tooling build for our users use cases and needs.
Our product development has been guided by speaking to lots of our users ever day. We do this through a combination of optional onboarding calls, customers service and also being available at any time of the day to hop on a hangouts call and help solve a users problem.

I imagine for the outside observer it looks like we did everything right and that it was a smooth journey. But I just want to let you know it was f***ing hard with many MANY mistakes along the way.
Finally, there is no way would we have been able to achieve this without such a talented and dedicated team that we have to built over the last year 🙏
We are approaching another big milestone soon and we will be publishing a proper breakdown of what we did and how we got here in the following few days on our blog
