Just got my first paying subscriber for Copilo.io🎉
After weeks of building, refining, and cold DMs…
Someone pulled out their card and said yes.
One down. Many more to go.

Still writing your own prompts?
That’s the hard way.
Copilo.io lets you skip the guesswork.
Just say what you want — AI does the rest.
Let AI prompt the AI.
🔥 Watch:
Saw a conversion drop-off in our Copilo.io funnel:
→ 80 users clicked “Try it Free”
→ Only 15 followed through with sign up
Digging into analytics:
- 75% of visitors = iOS
- Signup was a generic redirect, no Apple login, no branding
So we changed that 👇
—
-…
Started building out the Copilo.io/blog
I believe this could be important to teaching creators more about how to get the most out of Copilo.
✅ First-person POV style guide.
✅ Miniature people style guide.

“Like Ernest & Celestine — but more melancholic.”
That was the idea one of our users started with.
Copilo turned it into a cinematic AI video — through conversation.
No tools. No prompting. Just storytelling.

Week 1 of building copilo.io in public:
- 51 users signed up
- 120 videos/images generated
- 2 paying customers.
- Fixed a video generation bug, added a soft paywall, redesigned landing page.
- Built in-app feedback.
Next up:
→ Hit 100 users
→ Convert more
→…
Launched an ad for Copilo. It worked.
But… video generation broke mid-run.
Users got confused. I got 5 angry email.
We fixed it in minutes. Gave bonus credits.
10 people came back. 25 generated videos again.
That’s startup energy.

I typed:
"A time traveler lands in Victorian Era"
Copilo.io did the rest 👇
No prompts. No editing. No learning curve.
Just idea -> content.

Copilo.io - Twitter vs Instagram Ads
I ran the exact same demo video on IG & Twitter as a paid ad.
Instagram (2 days @ $5/day): 1 signup - 0 creations in Copilo
Twitter ($15 boost): 17 signups - 35 creations in Copilo
