Why brands & retailers
choose videowise

True Classic Logo white
Videowise is the best video platform we've ever seen. Simple onboarding, great UI/UX, solid functionality, and an awesome partner to work with. We tested it on our site and it boosted our CVR.

We highly recommend trying it out in your store!
An average visitor watches 3.5 videos - that's 70 seconds of content.

Videowise added on average 26.5 seconds more time on site per visitor. We can attribute 60% of Videowise revenue to the story widget, it drives the best performance for us.
SNEAK Logo white
Videowise has given us the ability to feature product showcases and how-to videos on site to educate customers and build trust without compromising on page speed.

The platform is intuitive, and the team is incredibly supportive, constantly improving on their widgets and integrations.
Alpaka logo White
Since launch, we’ve observed clear lifts in both CVR and AOV on pages with Videowise content, alongside longer dwell time, lower bounce rates, and a healthy share of shoppers adding extra items directly from in‑video tags.
Videowise helps us to add shoppable videos to our site without slowing it down.

It’s helped us educate customers, build trust, and boost conversions, all without compromising page speed. A must-have for any modern ecommerce brand.
We deployed Videowise quite early on and then saw our competitors doing the same.
You don’t feel limited with the videos that you can put on your site, they are mobile optimized and there are a lot of video widgets that you can play around with.
To embed a video without a tool like Videowise, you have to build a container, figure out where you want to place it and that's just a simple video. [...] We operate 10 Shopify websites, so the ability for us to scale Videowise across as many of our sites as possible is a big deal.
They're always rolling out new features, some really cool features that could help bring your brand to life and really show the value of your products or your services.
