Right now, in Shishmaref, Alaska, families are packing houses onto sleds and moving them inland.
The permafrost under their homes is thawing, and the sea is eating the shoreline, house by house.
This is not a forecast. It is happening this year.

FAQ
Before
you join.
Still unsure? See what ShipVid makes.
What do I pay in total?
$49 a month for ShipVid, plus the AI costs of each video, paid to Replicate at their price: about $3.27 for 10 minutes, or $7.26 with AI video clips. Rendering on your PC is free.
What do I need to start?
A Windows PC and a Replicate account, the service that runs the AI models. Sign up, add billing and paste your API key into ShipVid once. Demo mode lets you try every step for free first.
Will it look like AI slop?
Every style has designed scenes, like animated maps, charts and archive pages. Fact-based styles are fact checked, and you watch the whole video before you render it.
Can I monetize these videos on YouTube?
That is YouTube's call. ShipVid is built for original videos: your voice, checked facts, a new structure each time and a script you read first. Follow YouTube's policies and label realistic AI content when asked.
Do I need editing skills?
No. ShipVid edits the whole video. If you like, change on-screen text, the music or the mix in the editor, for free.
How long does a video take?
Our 10:47 video essay was ready to review 57 minutes after the idea was typed. The final render runs on your PC, so its speed depends on your computer.
Which computer do I need?
A Windows PC. Projects stay on it as plain folders, and your key is stored encrypted. A Mac version is planned.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, from your Whop account. You keep the app, and your $49 price stays locked while you stay subscribed.
