I need to create 'onboarding' videos for new customers of my software.

Creating Software 'Onboarding' Videos with Invideo

Meta Description:

A 2025 guide on how to use Invideo to create a series of professional "onboarding" videos for new customers, combining screen recordings with a friendly AI avatar.

Why This Use Case Matters in 2025

Effective "onboarding" is the key to customer retention for SaaS. New users need clear, friendly, and professional guidance. Filming a whole library of tutorial videos is a major time sink. As of late 2025, Invideo is the perfect tool for this, allowing you to combine screen recordings of your features with a consistent AI avatar to act as a friendly guide.

How Invideo Simplifies Onboarding Video Creation

Invideo's platform is designed to create professional, tutorial-style videos at scale.

Automated Generation (Text-to-Video)

You can create one video for each onboarding step. You provide a prompt and, most importantly, paste in your step-by-step script.

AI-Generated Avatars & Uploaded Screen Recordings

This is the perfect hybrid workflow. You upload your screen recordings of your software. Then, you can prompt Invideo to generate an AI avatar (e.g., "a friendly customer success manager") to host the video. The AI can place this avatar in the corner of the screen or in full-screen "intro" and "outro" scenes.

AI Scripting and "Clear" Voiceovers

The AI will use your pasted script. You can then choose a "friendly," "clear," or "helpful" AI voiceover. Using the same voice for every video in your onboarding series creates a consistent, professional experience.

Intuitive Refinement (Text-Based Editing)

After the first draft, you can use simple text commands: "Start with the 'AI avatar' scene," "Then, show my uploaded 'screen recording,'" or "Add a text overlay: 'Step 1: Set Up Your Profile.'"

Step-by-Step Workflow

Step 1: Upload Your Screen Recording & Script

Record a short clip of the feature you're explaining and write a clear, step-by-step script.

Step 2: Write the Prompt

Describe the structure of the video.
