About Video Unlock
Make people watch before they click.
Video Unlock is a Framer code component that puts your call-to-action on a timer the viewer controls with their attention. The button sits below your video in a clearly locked state — dark and unclickable — and only comes alive once the viewer has watched the percentage you choose. When it unlocks, it animates to your "go" color, swaps its label, gains a soft glow, and becomes a real link.
It's the exact mechanic behind high-converting video sales letters (VSLs), course and cohort launches, and webinar replays: the offer button feels earned, not just shown. Instead of hiding your CTA and hoping people scroll, Video Unlock keeps the reward visible the whole time — the viewer watches the button they're working toward.
Why it converts
The locked → unlocked color change is a visible reward, not a hidden reveal — it pulls the eye the moment it fires.
Anti-Skip stops viewers from dragging the scrubber past what they've actually watched, so "watched 65%" means watched.
Remember saves progress in the browser, so a returning visitor who already watched enough sees the button unlocked right away.
Everything you need, nothing you don't 16 focused controls — no wall of settings. Set your unlock percentage, both button labels (🔒 Keep watching → Get Instant Access), both colors, the link, font, radius, and an optional progress bar. Spacing, shadow, and the unlock animation are tuned in and just work.
