A 9-second square product showreel for LOOPIN — the habit app. The app icon scales in — an accent rounded square; a loop mark draws inside it stroke by stroke and a dot caps the draw. The product name lands, then its one-line tagline. Three feature chips pop in a row — TRACK · STREAK · SYNC — then a price pill: $4.99 / MONTH. End line: "YOUR PRODUCT COULD LOOK LIKE THIS — SAMPLE PRODUCT". Near-black background, one orange accent.
Banned: glows, gradients, phone mockups you do not have, feature chips beyond three, prices without the sample label when the product is fictional.

<structure>
Beat 1 (0.3–0.85s): icon body scales in. Beat 2 (0.8–1.9s): the loop stroke draws; dot pops. Beat 3 (2.1–2.9s): name, then tagline. Beat 4 (3.4–4.8s): chips stagger in. Beat 5 (5.4s): price pill. Beat 6 (7.6s): end line fades in. Hold.

One HyperFrames composition, 1080x1080 square, seek-driven GSAP timeline. The loop draw uses the path's real length via getTotalLength. Chips and pill share one entrance pattern (rise + fade) — consistency is what makes it read as a system, not a pile.

<gotchas>
A fictional product must confess inside the film, not in a footnote: the end line carries the SAMPLE PRODUCT label. Skip it and the showreel becomes a fake ad.
</gotchas>
Before you finish: step through the timeline at five points and fix anything that overlaps, clips the frame, or drifts off the beat grid.
A product showreel in the Opus style, square cut: the app icon draws itself, the name lands, feature chips pop in a row, and the price closes. Loopin is a sample product — the label on the end frame says so.

What broke (and the fix)
- Nothing broke. The loop mark drew cleanly from its real path length, the chips staggered in, and the price pill landed last — verified in the settled snapshot.
