Free small plates and starters videos for your restaurant's social media

Questions restaurant owners ask

What's in the Small Plates & Starters collection?

Sharing boards, dips and starters worth a close-up. Each one is a finished clip — nothing to trim, caption or colour-correct before it goes out.

Is the Small Plates & Starters collection really free?

Yes — you can download free videos every week without a card. Free downloads carry a small splento.ai watermark; a paid plan removes it.

Can I post these videos on Instagram, TikTok and Google Business?

Yes — download a clip and post it wherever you publish: Reels, TikTok, Shorts, your Google Business profile or your website. Nothing to edit first.

Can I use these videos commercially?

Yes — for your own venue: social media, your website, in-venue screens, menus and paid ads. The licence comes with the download and does not run out, so nobody asks you about rights later. It is non-exclusive, though: the same clip may be licensed to other businesses, and you cannot resell the clips as stock on their own.

Why do the free videos have a watermark?

The watermark is how the free tier stays free. It sits small in a corner so it never covers the food. Upgrade and the same video downloads clean.

Do I need a photographer or a video shoot?

No. The clips are made with AI, so there is no crew, no studio time and nothing to schedule — you pick a video and post it.

Can I get videos made from my own dishes?

Not from photos of your own dishes — that one is coming soon. What works today: pick the closest match from the library, and if nothing fits, ask us for videos of your own menu — the request reaches a human.

How often are new videos added?

Regularly — the library keeps growing, so there is always something new to post without touching a camera.
