Founded by former Snapchat machine learning engineer Kate Deyneka, the app targets professionals who lack the time to navigate complex video software. Users upload their footage, provide a descriptive prompt, and record a 30-second voice sample for cloning. The system then takes over, handling scriptwriting, voiceover generation, music selection, and even animating static photos—such as turning a still shot of food prep into a motion clip—before delivering a final cut.

Reelful automates short-form video creation for busy founders
For founders and creators struggling to balance building a business with the demands of social media, a new iOS app promises to eliminate the editing suite. Reelful uses AI agents to transform raw camera roll clips and still images into polished, platform-ready videos, stripping away the friction of manual production.
Participants in the a16z Speedrun program, Reelful allows users to refine the output through simple conversational prompts, requesting soundtrack changes or script revisions after the initial assembly. Pricing is structured around video credit bundles or recurring subscriptions, ranging from a $15 five-video pack to a $100 monthly Studio tier. While currently exclusive to iOS, the startup plans to expand to Android and web platforms as it seeks to capture the market of time-strapped entrepreneurs.
