Google Vids — A rich new medium that unlocks powerful video storytelling

Looks like more access is being rolled out to Google Vids... which fits into the Google Workspace aesthetic and product offering, and as a result, looks super dated. The "Product Hunt launch video" I asked it to produce was supremely milquetoast, so if you don't have taste, this is the product for you! 😅

Sounds interesting. Might wanna let my team know to see if it would for us. Congratz on the launch and good luck!

Interesting how they're trying to simply the whole end-to-end workflow. @dor_bar_shalom @talronpereg @daniel_adam2

What a fantastic launch! It's always thrilling to see new ideas that may make our work process more efficient.

Have been looking for something like Google Vids. Glad I didn't miss this.

I think this could have been integrated in Google Slides, instead of spinning it off as Google Vids.

Congrats on the launch of Vids! It's always exciting to see new tools that leverage AI for video creation, especially when integrated with Google Workspace. I can see how it could be a game changer for quick drafts, but I do hope they improve the aesthetics and quality over time. The launch video concept sounds interesting; hopefully, it gets a bit more pizzazz to appeal to diverse creators. Looking forward to seeing how Vids evolves in the PH community! Let's hope for some updates soon! 🥳

Is Vids really aligning well with the Google Workspace vibe? I get the integration point, but the dated appearance is a concern. Also, you mentioned the launch video felt milquetoast—did you find any templates that actually stand out? Wondering if the AI features like Gemini can help with creativity or if they just churn out generic content. This could be a deal-breaker for the Makers looking for something fresh!

Congrats on the launch of Vids! It's exciting to see more integrations with Google Workspace, even if the aesthetic feels a bit dated. Hopefully, as it evolves, it will offer more sophisticated templates and refined UX. For those who need quick drafts, it sounds like it could be a game changer! Looking forward to seeing how it will grow. Great work, makers!

I can totally relate to your experience with the Product Hunt launch video! While Vids has some nice features, it seems to need a bit more flair to stand out in the crowded video creation space. The integration with Google Workspace is a nice touch, but aesthetics are key nowadays. Let's hope they roll out some upgraded templates soon! This could be an interesting MVP for many users, just needs that extra spark!

Interesting take on Vids! I appreciate the integration with Google Workspace but totally see your point about the aesthetics feeling outdated. The quality is crucial, especially for a launch video. Hoping the team can enhance that aspect soon. Upvote for the conversation!

Thanks for the update! I’m signing up for the newsletter to stay informed about the launch. Excited to see this in action!

Google Vids looks like an interesting tool for anyone needing to craft compelling video narratives for work. The AI-powered features and integration with Google Workspace definitely streamline the process, making it easier to get started with quality templates. I appreciate the idea of using Gemini to jump-start those first drafts—there’s something to be said for getting the ball rolling early. While the design might still feel a bit dated, I think the potential for storytelling is promising. It’ll be exciting to see how users leverage it for engaging presentations and content creation!

Congrats on launch of Google Vids......

One sentence, I Just loved it😍.

Stumbled across this while browsing ads, have to say the videos it makes are pretty boring and outdated, isn't there a way to add more modern and creative elements?

So this is basically another boring app that just cranks out bland videos, how about actually putting in some effort to make it unique or adding features that don't make me fall asleep?

Not sure about anyone else but this new tool feels like it’s made for folks who love super generic stuff, sure it’s part of the Workspace mix but man does it scream plain, maybe those templates and AI are better suited for people without any creative bone in their body, what’s everyone else think?

Well, it seems like another soulless tool fitting right into their bland ecosystem, wouldn't it be more interesting if it had unique themes or more creativity in the AI-generated content? 🤔

This new tool could really simplify video production for teams! Excited to see how it enhances productivity and creativity. Looking forward to its release!
