The problem it solves

Producing short videos for social media means writing a script, generating visuals, recording voiceover, editing it all together, and posting to multiple platforms by hand. Doing that for every idea takes hours you don't have, so good content ideas sit unused.

Who it fits

Content creators, marketers, or small businesses who want to turn ideas into short videos without running a full production process.

How it works

  1. A new content idea is added to a spreadsheet with a title, script, and style notes
  2. AI generates visual scenes based on the idea
  3. The script is converted into a natural-sounding voiceover
  4. Images, voiceover, and music are combined into a finished vertical video
  5. The video is posted automatically to your social accounts and logged back to the spreadsheet
What you get

Finished short videos ready to review before posting

A content idea in your spreadsheet becomes a finished vertical video with voiceover, posted automatically to your social accounts.

What you get

A finished short video published to your social media accounts, with the post link saved for tracking.

What you need

Accounts with an AI image generator, a voice generation service, a video editing service, and your social media platforms.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
