v0 Landing Page Video

Show what actually works, not just what looks styled.

Decide what a v0 generated app's own landing page video can honestly show, once you know how much of the app is wired up.

A landing page video for a v0 generated app has to answer a question the tool itself does not settle: how much of what looks finished on screen is actually wired up to do something. v0 is built around producing interface, meaning React components and layout styled with something like Tailwind, and a generated screen can look completely finished while the button in the middle of it does not yet call anything real. A landing page video that shows that button being clicked, with a result implied that the app cannot currently produce, sets an expectation the product breaks the moment a visitor tries it themselves.

This is different from the concern on a platform where the generated output usually includes working backend logic by default. With a v0 build, the honest first step before recording anything is to check, screen by screen, which interactions are cosmetic and which are real. Once that is settled, the video can show exactly what the app currently does, which is a more defensible foundation for a landing page than a video that outruns the product.

None of this means a v0 build is less capable than one produced elsewhere. It reflects how the tool is commonly used: many builders start with v0 specifically to get the interface right before connecting real data or logic, which is a reasonable order to work in. The landing page video just needs to reflect wherever that process currently stands, rather than assuming the interface and the logic behind it always finish at the same time.

How do you tell what is actually working?

Click through the app the way a new visitor would, on the deployed version rather than inside the v0 workspace itself. Note which buttons produce a real change, such as data being saved or a new screen appearing with content that reflects an actual action, and which buttons simply look clickable without changing anything. A screen that looks like a finished dashboard can still be, underneath, a static layout waiting for real data to be connected.

Do this check on the deployed app rather than trusting a memory of how the project looked during generation. It is easy to lose track of exactly which piece was connected last, especially after several rounds of prompting and adjustment, and a five minute pass through the live app removes the guesswork before the more expensive step of writing a hint and requesting a render.

What to check	What it tells you
Does clicking the button change any visible state	Whether the interaction is wired to real logic
Does a refresh preserve the result	Whether the change is actually saved somewhere
Does the screen show real or placeholder content	Whether the interface is ready to represent an actual result

What should the landing page video actually show?

Show the interaction that is genuinely wired up, and build the hint around that specific action rather than around what the landing page's headline would ideally claim. If the working part of the app is generating a summary from pasted text, the video should show exactly that, since it is a real result a visitor can expect to reproduce themselves.

Check whether the screen's interactions are wired to real logic or still just styled interface.
Deploy the app so the landing page video points at a stable, public address.
Show only the interaction that is genuinely wired up, not a styled screen that does not yet respond.

Why does the video need a deployed link rather than the v0 preview?

v0's own workspace preview is convenient while iterating, but a public landing page benefits from a stable, deployed address, most commonly reached by publishing the project to a hosting target that returns its own public URL once the deploy completes. A landing page video is meant to sit on a public page for a while, and recording against a workspace session that may not persist the same way risks a mismatch between what the video shows and what a visitor finds if they click through afterward.

The deploy step also gives the builder one more chance to notice a piece of interface that looked finished in the workspace but behaves differently once it is running on real infrastructure rather than inside the editor's own preview. Treat the deployed version as the source of truth for what the landing page video can claim, not the version last seen while iterating.

GogoScreen takes the deployed URL and a one line hint naming the working action to show, then returns a narrated MP4 with captions, cursor smoothing, click zooms, and dead air removed. If the flow needs a login, a demo account can be supplied for that single render, with the credential encrypted, used once, then deleted. When a storyboard is planned first, the credentials are kept encrypted for that session and deleted at most two hours after their last use. Roughly one render in five fails or needs a retry, worth planning for before the page goes live, especially if the landing page has a firm launch date attached to it.

How does this compare to the equivalent Bolt or v0 pages?

The v0 Product Hunt launch video guide covers a launch gallery's different length and pacing constraints, while the v0 share with a client guide and the v0 portfolio demo guide cover a private handoff and a public portfolio entry respectively, both of which face the same wired-versus-styled question this page raises. The v0 app review walkthrough guide is closer to a reviewer's specific request than to a landing page's general promise.

Outside v0 specifically, the Cursor demo video guide covers a code editor centric workflow with a different relationship between generation and running logic, and the AI agent test result demo video guide covers showing a passing test rather than a user facing screen. For the tradeoff between a fixed video and a clickable interactive version of the same flow, see the interactive demo versus demo video guide.

Who else might need a version of this video?

Once the landing page video exists, it tends to get reused for smaller, related products built the same way.

A two person SaaS launching its first paid plan around the same working feature.
A logged in app that needs the same proof once past the marketing page.
An early pitch deck that needs the same clip as evidence a core feature works.

Each of these reuses depend on the same underlying discipline: recording only the part of the app that is genuinely wired up. A pitch deck audience and a paying customer are both eventually going to test the claim themselves, in different ways and on different timelines, and a video built around a real result holds up under both kinds of scrutiny in a way that a video built around a styled but non functional screen cannot.

The two person SaaS demo video guide and the logged in app demo video guide cover those first two placements, and the startup pitch demo video guide covers using the same evidence in front of an investor.

Clarifications

Before you start

Does a v0 generated screen always have working logic behind it?

Not always. v0 output often starts as interface, styled components and layout, and the logic behind a button may or may not be wired up yet. Check before recording.

Should the landing page video use the v0 preview or a deployed link?

A deployed link is the more durable choice for a public landing page, since the video may sit there long after the original v0 session ends.

What if only the interface is finished and the logic is not?

Show what is actually finished. A video should never imply a result the app cannot currently produce, even if the interface for it already looks complete.
