The quality jumped overnight

We switched our product video pipeline to Sunra last month. Kling 3.0 with native audio is genuinely usable for social ads now. Our team ships 30+ variations a week without touching After Effects.

Cut our pre-production costs in half

We prototype every scene in Sunra before we shoot. Directors see framing, pacing, and mood before a single camera rolls. It's become essential to our pre-vis workflow.

Stopped dreading revisions

Old workflow: revision ticket comes in, I sigh. New workflow: revision ticket comes in, I run it in Sunra, send three options back. Clients see effort, I save hours.

Client deliverables look premium

My clients don't know it's AI. They see the final product, compare it to what they got from their previous agency, and ask me to come in-house. Not taking the offer.

The credits actually go far

I've used $30 worth of credits to produce a campaign that would have cost $12k through a traditional agency. Margins on my client work went from 20% to 65%.

Documentary pre-vis breakthrough

Pre-visualizing reenactments and archival sequences used to cost us 15% of every doc budget. Sunra lets me block scenes for free, then shoot only what matters.
