500+ Subscribers quickly – Fueled by Scalable Video Creation

Discover how Pictory is helping Dr. Yuri Kotick, founder of Game of Yield, revolutionize the investment world with automated cash flow solutions.

The Challenge

Stefan faced several challenges before using Pictory:

• Manual, Time-Consuming Video Production
  Video production involved many takes and manual direction. Editing was “long and tedious,” requiring detailed instructions to editors on what to cut and keep.
• High Costs of Production
  Hiring voiceover artists and animators was expensive.  Creating animated characters and scenes (like his “Planet Net Worthy” with cats, dogs, and foxes) required significant investment and ongoing resources.
• Creative Fatigue
  While sometimes inspiring, the video creation process was often exhausting and repetitive.
• Lack of Automation
  The workflow was not scalable and very manual intensive.
• Compliance and Precision Needs
  Due to the nature of the investment industry, he couldn’t rely on AI to write scripts or improvise—everything needed strict compliance and disclaimers, which meant sticking to written text and carefully crafting every message.
• Difficulty Synchronizing Visuals and Voiceovers
  Synchronizing audio with visual assets was a manual process requiring time and technical skill.

The Solution

Pictory helped Dr. Yuri Kotik transform his video production process from a costly, time-consuming, and manual operation into a streamlined, automated workflow that supports his content-driven marketing strategy.

By using Pictory’s text-to-video feature, Yuri was able to maintain full control over compliance-heavy scripts while dramatically reducing production time. The ability to generate videos from text, add high-quality voiceovers (including premium voices from ElevenLabs), and seamlessly insert his own visuals or voice when needed gave him the flexibility he lacked with traditional tools.

Pictory’s intelligent scene matching, easy timing adjustments, and background music options enabled him to create polished, professional-looking videos without the expense of animators or editors. 

The Results

Ultimately, Pictory allowed Yuri to scale his content output, extend his brand reach, and build engagement with his audience—while saving time, cutting costs, and staying compliant in a tightly regulated industry.

Since adopting Pictory, Dr. Yuri Kotik has significantly increased the efficiency and impact of his video marketing efforts. Within just a few months of launching his mobile app Game of Yield, which integrates Pictory-created videos, he attracted over 500 subscribers, with many returning regularly to engage with new content.

The ability to produce high-quality, compliant videos quickly and cost-effectively has enabled him to publish fresh content every few days—something that was previously unfeasible due to the time, cost, and complexity involved.

These videos now form a core part of his customer journey, driving engagement and retention within his app and educational platform.
