Turn spreadsheet rows into AI talking-head videos and publish them

Turns rows in a spreadsheet into AI avatar videos with voiceover, then publishes them to your chosen social platforms.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs; a person has to approve before it continues.

The problem it solves

Making a talking-head video for every social post takes hours between scripting, recording, and editing. Posting to multiple platforms on top of that makes it nearly impossible to keep a regular schedule.

Who it fits

A social media manager or content creator who needs to publish avatar-style videos regularly across platforms.

How it works

  1. A new row is added to your spreadsheet with the video's script, voice, and style
  2. Text is turned into a voiceover using OpenAI or ElevenLabs
  3. An AI avatar video is generated from the image and script
  4. You get an email to review and approve the video before it goes out
  5. Once approved, the video is published to your chosen platforms and the spreadsheet is updated with the results
What you get

Avatar videos ready for your final approval

You get a finished AI avatar video with voiceover, ready for a quick look before it goes out to your channels.

What you get

A published AI avatar video with an updated spreadsheet status and an email report of results.

What you need

A Google Workspace account, an OpenAI or ElevenLabs account, and accounts for the social platforms you publish to.

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.
