About
Zehra Akcali — UGC creator and product designer

Hi 👋 — I'm Zehra

Boston, USA · founder & product designer by day

Most UGC creators learn tech from the outside — I build in it. 9-to-5 I'm a founding designer and design engineer; 5-to-9 I make short-form video that explains products accurately and respects your CAC. My favorite kind of brief: building something real on camera — like making a site with Claude + Cursor — so the workflow itself becomes your ad.

How I work

From brief to delivery in three steps

01

Scripting & concepting

You share the product and the KPI. I send hooks, angles and scripts within 24h — mapped to funnel stage before anything is filmed.

02

Shooting & editing

Filmed, edited and captioned — native to TikTok, Reels and Shorts, accurate to your product.

03

Delivering & iterating

Delivered in 48–72h. If a cut wins, I spin up variations fast — hooks, CTAs, aspect ratios.

Questions & answers

Quick answers

How fast is turnaround?+

48–72 hours from product-in-hand (or account access for software). Rush delivery is available on request.

Which platforms do you create for?+

TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts natively — with CTA and aspect-ratio variants for paid placements on request.

How do usage rights work?+

Every package includes 30 days of organic usage. Paid ad usage, whitelisting/Spark Ads and perpetual rights are scoped in the rate card — reach out and I'll send it over.

Do you post on your own channels?+

My core offer is content for your channels. Organic seeding on mine is available as an add-on — let's scope it in the brief.

Can you handle complex B2B products?+

That's my specialty. As a founder and product designer with EdTech, CRM and enterprise SaaS experience, I can demo real workflows credibly — no surface-level script reading.
