A clear comparison for SaaS teams choosing how to produce video.
As SaaS teams scale, video becomes more important — for launches, demos, onboarding, and sales enablement.
At that point, many teams face a key decision:
Build an in-house video team, or work with a SaaS video agency?
Both approaches can work.
But they are designed for very different needs, constraints, and outcomes.
This page compares an in-house video team with a SaaS video agency, so you can choose the right model for your product, growth stage, and go-to-market goals.e.

In-house video team
A dedicated internal team responsible for producing video content on an ongoing basis, typically focused on speed, volume, and internal alignment.
SaaS video agency
A specialist external partner focused on helping SaaS companies explain complex products clearly and support go-to-market outcomes such as launches, demos, onboarding, and sales enablement.
1) Volume vs impact
In-house teams are excellent for ongoing content needs and quick turnarounds.
SaaS video agencies are optimised for high-impact moments — launches, repositioning, and sales enablement.
Many SaaS teams underestimate how different these requirements are.2) Internal knowledge vs external perspective
In-house teams know the product deeply.
But that closeness can make it harder to explain the product clearly to new buyers.
SaaS video agencies bring an external perspective informed by dozens of similar products, helping surface blind spots and sharpen messaging.3) Scale and specialisation
A small in-house team rarely covers strategy, scripting, animation, live-action, editing, and sound at a consistently high level.
A SaaS video agency is built to bring all of these disciplines together — especially when the stakes are high.
An in-house video team is often the right fit when:
• You need a high volume of ongoing content
• Speed and iteration matter more than polish
• Videos are primarily internal, educational, or community-focused
• The product is already well understood
In these cases, proximity and responsiveness are major advantages.
A SaaS video agency is usually the better fit when:
• The product is complex or hard to explain
• You’re launching or repositioning in a competitive market
• Video needs to support sales and revenue conversations
• Multiple stakeholders need to align around the message
• You want reusable assets across the full GTM motion
Here, clarity and experience matter more than internal speed.

Venture Videos is a SaaS-focused video agency that partners with in-house teams rather than replacing them.
We’re most effective when:
• In-house teams handle day-to-day content
• High-stakes launches or repositioning need external expertise
• Product clarity or differentiation is a challenge
• Sales teams need stronger visual tools
Our work complements internal teams by delivering high-impact, strategy-led video systems that scale across launch, sales, and onboarding.

If you need speed, volume, and internal alignment, an in-house video team may be the right foundation.
If you need clarity, differentiation, and confidence at critical GTM moments, a SaaS video agency is often the better investment.
