The Exaltus Story: From Math Geek to Storyteller
I’m Carole Alalouf, Founder & CEO of Exaltus.
One conversation changed everything for me.
“We don’t need all the details,” my colleague said. “We believe you. Just tell us what we need to know and why we should care.”
Those words hit home. As someone who loved diving deep into data, I had to face a hard truth: I was drowning my audience in details instead of showing them what mattered.
That realization led me to create Exaltus. Now, we help organizations turn complex information into clear, compelling visual stories that capture attention and drive action.

Meet the Team
We’re a Little Obsessed
There are a lot of whiteboard animation companies out there. But we like to think we’re different. And that’s because we’re all a little obsessed with the idea of pushing the limits of our medium, giving you our very best work every time, and making sure you enjoy the experience. Here are some of the things that set Exaltus apart.
Nothing gets us more excited than “it’s hard to explain”.
The world’s best ideas often come wrapped in layers of complexity. And when you’re deep in the details of your work, it can be challenging to step back and explain it to others. That’s where we come in.
We’re part detective, part artist. First, we dig deep to understand your complex ideas. Then we carefully shape them into stories that capture what matters most – stories that make your audience lean in and want to learn more.
Think of us as sculptors of ideas. You bring us the raw material of your expertise, and we’ll help reveal its hidden beauty. We’ll find the perfect angle, smooth away the unnecessary details, and create something that stops people in their tracks.
We want your video to be the best we’ve ever made.
With each new visual story, we push ourselves to reach higher, diving into your world to:
- Transform complexity into clarity without losing depth
- Create moments of “now I get it!” for your audience
- Capture your unique voice and vision in every frame
Your story deserves to shine. Let’s craft something extraordinary together.
Hear from Our Clients
“I’m a writer. A word person. So when Carole approached me about creating a short video based on my work I’ll be honest: I didn’t see it. I said okay but internally I threw up a side eye. Like… why?
“Then a few days later she showed me what she created. She distilled my words into a visual story and… WOW! She made my thoughts come alive in a fun, tangible way that made the ideas more accessible and more joyous.
“Carole: I’m sorry I doubted you. I get it now.
“And you there… ? Reading this? Hire her. She’s awesome.”
“Working with Exaltus was a pleasure. In addition to being experienced and knowledgeable, the team is very focused on customer service. We were very impressed by their listening skills and understanding of client needs, their knowledge and experience, their responsiveness, and their all-around professionalism.”
“We consider your videos the crown jewels of our campaign. We are proud to have partnered with you.”
“I really appreciate your great communication on this project. We should have you give a lesson for our writers on best practices for working with clients.”
“After showing everyone the videos, they were amazed!! There were lots of chuckles at the illustrations and sound effects, and even some “wows” at the statistics and facts that we have included. They have heard us talk about these facts and figures endlessly, but I think it really resonated with them when they saw the way that you presented them. It was exciting to see their reaction.”
“It is a delight to work with Carole Alalouf and Exaltus. Carole has enabled me to create educational messages that are dense with content but are presented in clear, accessible images. She converts complexity into clarity. She listens and she delivers–quickly and effectively. Her whiteboard animation is brilliant for linking multiple concepts into a simple, coherent whole.
I am so impressed by how quickly Carole ‘gets’ what I am trying to say and how quickly I have product to review. We have worked together for
a few years now and she has never let me down. I lucked out when I ‘discovered’ Carole and Exaltus. I could not recommend a professional more highly.”
“It was one of the smoothest creative processes we’ve ever participated in, and we were exceedingly pleased with the results. Thank you, Exaltus!”
“It’s been a pleasure working with you. You’ve been professional, creative, responsive, flexible and in good spirits throughout the entire process. I’ve learned a ton from this project and have you to thank. I’d be happy to recommend you to others.”
“I wanted to thank you for the great job you did on the videos. Everybody loves them. They’ve proven to be the best way to get potential customers to immediately grasp what we do and to see the benefits. Plus, we’re getting so much buzz on our social networks!”
“As an award-winning company, we knew Exaltus would deliver a quality product. The most impressive part of our experience with Exaltus was the incredible level of service delivered consistently from the start of the project to the end. They worked with us to accommodate some challenging timelines and worked tirelessly to ensure our comfort throughout the process. The Exaltus team made suggestions that improved the process throughout…and continued to support us as we launched the videos they produced. An incredible experience we are sure to repeat.”
“We were very new to this whiteboard animation video creation. Carole understood this, and she was patient with us and me, and I learned more during this process of creating animation videos.
Customer service is excellent. Emails were always replied to within the same day. Revision video and updates were done very quickly. Initial timeline of the project we expected to be completed perhaps by June, but Exaltus went above and beyond for us, knowing we had our busy conference season on the horizon and the video completed for us in April.”
“I’m truly amazed at how Exaltus brought my words to life and I know this will help so many in my community take the next step in telling their story, investing in their personal brand and ultimately standing out from the noise!”
“We came to Carole with a great vision but had no idea how to get there. Carole was so fantastic to partner with every step of the way. She is a true creative consultant that helped us achieve even more than what we have envisioned. The final product was a huge success!
She was available all throughout the project and was open to ongoing feedback- she and her team never cut corners. She made it clear that the goal was for it to be perfect and she worked with us to make it happen. When I presented the new whiteboard explainer video at our annual sales meeting everyone went crazy! They loved it! Carole and her team nailed our message.
Exaltus has been a dream to work with. They are true professionals who are collaborative partners. I would highly recommend Carole and her Exaltus team!!!”
