Edit it yourself, or have it made?
Canva and CapCut are editors: you pick a template, drop in your text and clips, choose stock music and spend the afternoon arranging it. WOMO makes the film for you: one sentence in, an original film out, with its own idea, motion, voice-over, music and sound, usually in 20 to 45 minutes, for $49 after you watch it.
- Watch it before you pay
- $49 a film
- 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:5
- No account

When an editor is the better choice
You enjoy designing
If you want to control every frame, an editor gives you that control.
You have footage
Cutting your own clips, interviews or product videos is an editor's job.
Many quick social posts
For a stream of simple text-and-template posts, an editor's templates are fast.
When WOMO is the better choice
It has to look designed
A launch, an ad or a homepage film that should not look like a template.
You have no afternoon
Write the sentence, get on with your day, come back to a finished film.
You need it in every format
Four layouts and a silent version, without re-editing anything.
Made with WOMO, from one sentence each
Questions
Is WOMO a Canva alternative?
For finished motion films, yes: WOMO makes the film for you instead of giving you an editor. For designing posts, presentations or print, Canva is a different tool.
Can I edit a WOMO film afterwards?
You can ask WOMO for changes in plain words, and each change makes a new version. Once bought, you can also edit the files in any video editor.
Does WOMO use templates?
No. Each film is conceived from scratch for its brief, and checked against earlier WOMO films so that two companies don't get the same one.
