The problem it solves

You've written out video scripts line by line, but turning each one into an actual video means recording, editing, and uploading each clip by hand. Keeping track of which script has a finished video and which doesn't becomes its own chore.

Who it fits

Content creators or marketers who script videos in bulk and want each line turned into a finished clip.

How it works

  1. You run the process and it reads avatar details and script lines from a spreadsheet
  2. Each script line is prepared with the right avatar description and framing
  3. An AI video model generates a short avatar video for that line
  4. The finished video is saved to a Drive folder
  5. The spreadsheet row is updated with a link to the video
What you get

Avatar videos ready without filming

Each script line in your spreadsheet becomes a finished AI avatar video, saved to Drive and linked back in the sheet.

What you get

A short AI avatar video per script line, stored in Drive with a link recorded in your spreadsheet.

What you need

A Google Workspace account and access to Google's Gemini and Veo video model.

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.
