🚀 Glims: Create Eye-Catching Videos from Static Images and Clips
Hello Hunters! 👋
We’re @sooryagangaraj and @sanalck007, and we’re building Glims — a tiny tool that turns your static images and short clips into fast, fun, and polished videos — we call them glims.
It started with a simple idea: sharing work-in-progress or personal moments should be effortless. But existing tools were either too bloated (hello timelines 😵💫) or too rigid. So we set out to build something where you just drag in your images, tweak a few things, and hit generate.
No layers. No keyframes. Just vibes. ✨
With Glims, you can:
✅ Combine images, short clips, or even GIFs into a single video
✅ Add filters (grayscale, grain, blur...) for that extra polish
✅ Customize animation curves, durations, aspect ratios
✅ Export in GIF, MP4, WebM
And the best part? It’s perfect for so many creative moments:
🎬 Showreels for Designers & Artists: Turn static UI designs, art boards, or even Figma explorations into stunning case study videos or Behance/Dribbble reels.
📸 Photo Memories for Everyone: Capture travel moments, event highlights, or just your favorite photos into a vibey video for friends and family.
📣 Social Media Teasers for Creators & Influencers: Showcase your products, before/after transformations, or event promos on Instagram Reels, TikTok, or X — grab attention with quick, animated visuals.
🧠 Quick Prototypes for Founders & Indie Makers: Animate app screenshots or product mockups into polished videos — perfect for Product Hunt launches, crowdfunding pages, or pitching your startup idea.
👩💼 Marketing Teams & Brands: Easily turn product photos or campaign assets into engaging promo clips for social — no video editor required.
🛍️ Retailers & E-commerce Stores: Showcase your new collection, seasonal drops, or special offers with animated product videos.
Glims is still in early beta, so things may break or surprise you — but we’re super excited to see what you create!
Share your creations with #MadeWithGlims on X — we’ll feature our favorites on the landing page.
Drop your thoughts, feedback, or your Glims in the comments — we’d love to chat! 🙌

@angelinmaryjohn Yes, absolutely. Especially when you don’t want to post publicly just to get a video reel — privacy matters. Glims runs 100% on your browser, not on any external servers — your content never leaves your device. This makes it safe even for highly confidential work.
We believe that a tool for turning images into videos (or stitching video clips together) shouldn't force public sharing — unlike platforms like Instagram Reels or TikTok chasing virality.
Really can do w/ turning images + clips into clean & vibe-filled videos without timelines or fuss, love it!!
Lightweight + simple + actually makes sharing feel effortless imo
Let's gooo team

Thank you again Sam 😊

I think Glims should adjust the animation of the images appearing. It doesn't look very natural right now. I feel that since you're making a very simple function, this will be a very key attraction point.

Thanks for the feedback, CaiCai! Totally hear you — we’ll definitely keep this in mind. 🙌

@hi_caicai We use a balanced default speed, but the final output can vary based on how many images you drop.You’ll find a speed control on the right (attached a screenshot here) — feel free to adjust the transition speed to your liking. Let me know if that works for you or if you’re looking for something different!

Tested Glims a couple of weeks ago, and it was looking solid. Great to see it on Product Hunt today. Going to share this with the designers in my circle. Cheers, @sanalck007 and @sooryagangaraj \m/
