🌅 Today marks a bittersweet milestone as we sunset the Wibbitz platform for all our valued customers. It's a moment of reflection and immense gratitude. I first came up with the idea for Wibbitz in 2009 with a vision to revolutionize video creation through AI-powered automation. We were pioneers in text-to-video, making content creation more accessible and efficient for countless people. Over the past two years, we successfully migrated hundreds of our customers to Vimeo, ensuring a seamless transition and unlocking even more opportunities for them with video. As I look back on this incredible journey, I'm filled with pride and nostalgia. The road we've traveled has been paved with innovation, resilience, and the unwavering dedication of an amazing team. Together, we've pushed the boundaries of technology and storytelling, creating millions of videos that garnered billions of views online. The impact we've made is truly humbling. To our customers, partners and team members, thank you for believing in Wibbitz and being a part of this remarkable adventure. While this chapter closes, the spirit of Wibbitz lives on as we continue to innovate and shape the future of video here at Vimeo. Here's to the amazing ride we've had and to the exciting future that awaits. 🥂

Congratulations, Zohar! I still vividly remember the "Wow!" moment when I first saw the Wibbitz demo. Transforming flipbooks into sequenced videos with voiceovers was a groundbreaking idea. Thank you for the wonderful memories, from visiting the NY office to our fun times in Tokyo. I’ll cherish and proudly wear the Wibbitz T-shirt😊 Here's to the incredible journey we've had and the bright future ahead at Vimeo! 🌟
