Common questions
How is Outvid different from Vidyard?+
Vidyard is a recording tool — you record each video yourself. Outvid is an outreach platform — your AI clone auto-generates a unique video per prospect from a list, with scripts written from prospect research. Different category, different mechanic.
Do I need to record every video with Outvid like I do with Vidyard?+
No. You record once when you train your AI clone — a 30–45 minute session. After that, every per-prospect video is auto-generated. You don't appear on camera again unless you want to.
Can Outvid replace Vidyard for outbound, or do I need both?+
For pure outbound prospecting at scale, Outvid replaces Vidyard. If you also use Vidyard for screen-recorded product walkthroughs or internal comms, those use cases can stay with Vidyard — they're complementary jobs.
Does Outvid integrate with my email sequencer the way Vidyard does?+
Outvid has native email sending built in, and exports personalised video links via CSV that drop into Outreach, Salesloft, Apollo, Instantly, Lemlist, and any tool that imports a list. Vidyard relies on third-party integrations for sending.
How does the per-prospect personalisation actually work end-to-end?+
You upload a prospect list or sync your CRM. Outvid researches each prospect — current role, tenure, recent news, public signals — and auto-writes a unique script per person. Your AI clone delivers each script as a video, ready to send.
