🚀 Why We Built Yapper

We saw how quickly the AI video space was evolving. New models were dropping constantly, but most tools were clunky, confusing, and clearly built by AI engineers for other engineers. 🤯

We’ve been in your shoes. We’ve built startups, run teams, and scaled content to billions of views. We know how powerful viral content can be for growth, and how frustrating it is to waste hours figuring out prompts or piecing together complex tools.

So we asked ourselves: What if creating a viral video could be as easy as writing on a sticky-note?

That’s why we built Yapper: simple enough for beginners, powerful enough for pros.

✨ What Makes Yapper Special

Unlike traditional video creation platforms, which are either overwhelming or underpowered, Yapper is designed from the ground up with one question in mind:
👉 How can I produce a viral video as fast as possible?

That’s why we’ve packed it with features like:
• 🧠 Prompt Extractor – instantly generate winning prompts from real viral content from Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube
• 🎬 Timeline Editor – edit, combine, and repurpose clips in seconds
• ✍️ Script Assistant – craft engaging scripts tailored for short-form success
• 📚 Viral Templates – proven formats ready to go, so you can skip the research and get your first post out faster

🌍 Built for Everyone, Everywhere

One of our biggest missions is accessibility. Many of the latest models, like OpenAI’s Sora 2, are limited to the U.S. and Canada, but on Yapper we make them available to creators in every country on Earth (and beyond 👽).
