Key differences between Videowise & Novel
full video infrastructure, faster load times,
superior user experience
Videowise is a complete visual commerce platform trusted by renowned brands such as TrueClassic, Dr. Squatch, Beyoncé’s Cecred, Barstool Sports, Casper Mattresses, and over 2,000 others.
In contrast, Vidjet is a shoppable video app, offering limited features, no video embedding at scale, and ample room for improvement in user experience design.
While Novel provides only 3 limited video widgets, Videowise powers the entire video infrastructure with more than a dozen premium-designed video widgets and blazing-fast loading AI-optimized videos, delivering significantly more value on all fronts.

Videowise uses AI-optimizations & advanced video encoding to reduce video & image file sizes up to 90% while maintaining a high quality. In contrast, Vidjet uses just basic video compression and does not offer any support for images. Videowise makes it seamless to embed shoppable videos & images at a massive scale on thousands of product pages using widget templates.
Use Videowise's visual commerce platform to sell more, automate more, and go beyond Novel's limited shoppable videos. Offer your visitors a premium interactive video UX, shoppable image galleries, video channels, social feeds, and advanced analytics that boost product discovery and enrich the shopping experience.
