Motion graphics editors need a tool that reduces 5 hours of manual keyframing and tweaking to about 5 minutes.

Target User

Video editors and motion graphics artists using DaVinci Resolve or similar professional video software

Product Idea

DaVinci Resolve plugin: AI-assisted motion graphics keyframing tool that automates complex, multi-stage animations (e.g., text reveals, object paths) with granular manual override controls.

Evidence

• “If you've been trying to figure out how to make AI motion graphics that actually look professional and not just like glitchy tech demos… this is the workflow you need. As an editor, I've spent years learning how to edit these… What used to take me 5 hours of manual keyframing and tweaking now takes about 5 minutes with Seedance 2.5. +”

Why this opportunity matters

This opportunity surfaced from multi where Video editors and motion graphics artists using DaVinci Resolve or similar professional video software are actively describing the problem in their own words. We classified the demand intensity as high — meaning users are not just complaining, they are openly looking for paid solutions and willing to switch tools to find one. When users self-select to post a problem on a public platform like multi, they are usually already trying to solve it — which makes them strong candidates for the right paid alternative.

How to validate this before you build

Before writing a single line of code, three lightweight steps will tell you whether this opportunity is worth pursuing:

1. Read the original conversation. The evidence links above lead to the exact threads where users described this problem in their own words. Read every comment — what people argue about in the replies often matters more than the original post.
2. Talk to five real users. Find five people who match the target user description above and ask how they handle this today. You are looking for two signals: a consistent workaround they hate, and a willingness to pay for something better. If both show up in three of five conversations, the demand is real.
3. Test willingness to pay before building. Put up a one-page landing site describing the proposed product, with a deposit or pre-order checkout. If even a small fraction of traffic converts to a real payment, you have validated more than most products that ship to production.
