VIBE CREATION IS HERE
We handed early beta access of Wonda to 10 users and documented every step of their journey. To raise the stakes, we challenged them to make an epic launch video for our big reveal.
10 contestants. 1 winner. $25K prize.
The challenge
In August, we announced Wonda - the first AI agent that lets you create and edit video by chatting.
We call this Vibe Creation, creating video by prompting your way through.
Instead of making a launch video, we opened the job to our users.
We gave 10 users access one month earlier than anyone else, with the mission to create the best launch video the internet has ever seen.
All leading up to the Grand Finale where one of them will take home $25K.
And you’ll get chance to win a full year of Wondercraft with them.
