The problem it solves

Producing scroll-stopping product video content takes a camera crew, actors, or hours of editing you don't have time for. Testing different angles or messages for a product usually means starting from scratch each time. You want a way to produce ad-ready video content straight from your product data.

Who it fits

Best for e-commerce brands or agencies producing social video content at scale.

How it works

  1. A product row marked ready in Google Sheets triggers the process
  2. AI generates a product image from the description
  3. The image is turned into a cinematic video script
  4. The script is sent to an AI video generator and the system waits for it to finish
  5. The finished video is saved to Google Drive and the sheet is updated
What you get

Product videos ready for your review

Every product row you mark ready generates a finished video, complete with image and script, waiting for you to review.

What you get

A finished AI-generated product video saved to Google Drive, with the spreadsheet updated to show it's ready.

What you need

An OpenAI account, a Google Sheets account, and a Google Drive account.

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.
