These are the things people usually ask us before they start.
What is AI video for small business?It's a short marketing video made by software instead of a film crew. With Chairside you describe your offer, approve the script, and get back a finished vertical reel with an AI presenter, voice, captions and music.
Do I need to film anything?No. There's no camera and no editing. You answer a few questions and approve the script.
Are the people in the videos real?No. They're AI presenters, and every video is labelled “Made with AI”. We never fake customer reviews or before-and-after results.
How much does it cost?Your first video is free. After that, a 15-second reel is from £4 and a 30-second reel from £7, or £19 a month on a plan. You see the price before anything is made.
Your first reel is on us, so you can see it before you pay anything.
