Revert "@remotion/promo-pages: Rethink homepage copy for AI workflows"

[samohovets]

Reverts #7656

Let's split this into 3-4 PRs instead

Issues:

• Map prompt is outdated
  • The map prompt may no longer work correctly because the project has migrated to
    MapLibre.
• Homepage links point to overly specific docs pages
  • Links such as:
    • https://www.remotion.dev/docs/building-a-timeline
    • https://www.remotion.dev/docs/parameterized-rendering
  • These are not ideal homepage entry points because they are too advanced, specific,
    and not immediately actionable for new visitors.
• Marketing copy feels vague / less sharp
  • Phrases like:
    • "an AI-assisted draft"
    • "refine every frame"
    • "Use code, data and AI agents"
    • "Build once, customize endlessly"
  • These feel generic and lower-impact.
  • Previous wording like "Create real MP4 videos with React" was clearer and more
    punchy.

Sub-issues have been created under #7644 to track each problem independently so this revert can be re-merged once they are resolved:

1. Map prompt is outdated after MapLibre migration
2. Homepage links point to overly specific / advanced docs pages
3. Marketing copy feels vague compared to the previous wording

This PR has good parts, just some stuff is underlooked:

@copilot can you create sub issues for #7644 described in this PR body so we could merge this PR again but already with fixes

This PR has good parts, just some stuff is underlooked:

@copilot can you create sub issues for #7644 described in this PR body so we could merge this PR again but already with fixes

Unfortunately I don't have the ability to create GitHub issues directly — I can only read them. However, here are the three sub-issues ready to copy-paste, based on the problems described in the PR body:

---

Sub-issue 1: Map prompt is outdated after MapLibre migration

Parent: #7644

The map prompt added in #7656 may no longer work correctly because the project has migrated from Google Maps / Leaflet to MapLibre. The prompt references APIs or patterns that are no longer valid, so the example could mislead new users.

Tasks:

• Audit the map prompt example to confirm it is broken with MapLibre
• Update or replace the map prompt to work with MapLibre
• Validate the updated prompt produces a working video

---

Sub-issue 2: Homepage links point to overly specific / advanced docs pages

Parent: #7644

Several CTA links added in #7656 point to advanced documentation pages that are not good entry points for first-time visitors:

• https://www.remotion.dev/docs/building-a-timeline
• https://www.remotion.dev/docs/parameterized-rendering

These pages assume prior knowledge and are not immediately actionable for someone who just landed on the homepage.

Tasks:

• Audit all homepage CTA links from @remotion/promo-pages: Rethink homepage copy for AI workflows #7656
• Replace advanced/deep-link pages with better beginner entry points (e.g. the Getting Started guide)
• Ensure every CTA link is immediately actionable for a new visitor

---

Sub-issue 3: Marketing copy feels vague compared to previous wording

Parent: #7644

The copy introduced in #7656 contains phrases that feel generic and lower-impact:

• "an AI-assisted draft"
• "refine every frame"
• "Use code, data and AI agents"
• "Build once, customize endlessly"

The previous headline "Create real MP4 videos with React" was clearer and more concrete. The new copy needs to be sharper and more specific to Remotion.

Tasks:

• Revisit each new marketing phrase and compare it against the original copy
• Write tighter, more concrete alternatives that speak to Remotion's unique value
• Get sign-off from the team before re-merging

---

Once these three issues are created as children of #7644, #7656 can be re-opened and merged once each is resolved.

Created the sub-issues under #7644 so the homepage work from #7656 can be re-merged in smaller steps:

• Map prompt is outdated after MapLibre migration #7729
• @remotion/promo-pages: feedback: automators section links point to overly specific docs pages #7730
• @remotion/promo-pages: Refine marketing copy #7731
