A selection of the videos Sonder produces.
Every Sonder video is built on a script that's already been proven to work — then wrapped in imagery, animation, voiceover, and B-roll of your actual book.

Amazon Ads
The ad your book page deserves.
Shorts earn you the audience. This one closes the sale — 43 seconds, made for the page where readers actually buy, working for your book every single day.
One book. One ad. Included on paid plans.
How it works
Viral structure, not luck.
We studied thousands of the videos that worked and reverse-engineered the pattern underneath — the hook, the tension, the reveal, the ending that earns the save. Sonder picks the proven script, then produces the imagery, animation, and voiceover around it — with B-roll of your actual book stitched through every cut.
A five-minute walk-through — from PDF in to video out.
01
Upload your book.
Drop in your manuscript and 30 seconds of B-roll of your book — the cover, a flick-through, a shot on your desk. PDF only. Sonder reads the whole thing, not a summary. No prompts. No briefs.
02
Sonder finds a winning script.
We've studied thousands of the videos that actually worked, and reverse-engineered the structure underneath. Sonder applies that proven viral pattern — hook, tension, reveal — to your arguments, your stories, your voice. Not a template. A script built to be watched to the end.
03
Sonder produces the video.
Voiceover, animation, motion graphics, captions — and your book woven through it. We stitch your B-roll into the cut so the thing readers are about to buy is on screen. A full production crew you don't have to hire, brief, or pay $2,500 a month for.
04
Share, and go viral.
Post to TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts in one tap. The readers your book was written for — the ones still scrolling past, not knowing — finally find their way to you.
Proof
You didn't write a book to watch it go quiet.

The agency math
93%cheaper than a freelancer.
5 cinematic book videos every month. Studio quality. Same output that an agency or freelancer charges $750+ for.
With Sonder, it's $49.
Sonder was built by two publishers who've spent their careers helping others get seen — on screen, online, and on the shelf. We know what it takes to cut through, because we've done it. Now we're putting that firepower into the hands of every creator, founder, and personal brand who's tired of shouting into the void.
Lexi Kaz
Co-founder
Lexi is a seven-figure book publisher and the creative force behind the TikTok sensation "You Will Rock As a Dad" — a series that's amassed tens of millions of views and turned a children's book into a cultural moment. She started young. At five, she was flipping Lego figures on eBay. At fourteen, she was being recruited to play Division 1 soccer, and went on to play at the University of San Diego as the first in her family to compete at that level. When injuries and the pandemic forced a rethink, she bet on herself instead — dropping out at 19 to launch AK Infinite, a digital marketing agency that's worked with clients from Europe to Asia. Lexi has spent her career turning attention into outcomes.
"I built my whole career on figuring out what makes people click follow. Sonder gives that superpower to everyone."
Mike Langdon
Co-founder
Mike has been making video for over 20 years, and it shows. He's an award-winning video producer and the founder of one of Australia's biggest e-commerce video agencies, with a client roster that includes TikTok, Speedo, and Ring. When the BBC in the UK or the morning shows in Australia need someone to make sense of what's happening in media, they call Mike. He's also a seven-figure publisher with over 50 books to his name — but video is in his DNA. Sonder is what happens when two decades of "what actually works on camera" gets packaged into a tool anyone can use.
"I've spent 20 years being asked how to go viral. Sonder is a shortcut I wish I had on day one."
