Animated Explainer Videos

Vox-style animated explainer videos made with AI for clients

Video published Sep 22, 2026 by Sanji Nai-Chien

Startup cost: Low startup cost (AI tool subscriptions) (our estimate; the video doesn’t give figures)

What It Is

You produce short animated explainers in the style of news explainer channels: script, visual design, animation and sound, made with AI tools and refined through client notes.

The Pitch

Sanji says he would quote $1,000 for a complete 30-second explainer, including one agreed round of revisions.

Who It’s Best For

Clear thinkers who can turn an idea into a simple visual story.

The Truth (as we see it)

$1,000 is his suggested quote, not a shown sale. AI tools speed up the visuals but script and accuracy still take real work.
