Turn a product photo into a branded promo video automatically

Turns a product image into an AI-branded photo and a short promotional video, saved straight to Google Drive.

How the work actually flows

It repeats. Repeats keeps checking until video renders.

The problem it solves

Creating promotional videos for every product usually means hiring a designer or spending hours in editing software. You end up with a backlog of products that never get proper marketing content because there just isn't time.

Who it fits

An e-commerce business, marketing team, or agency that needs product promo videos without a video production budget.

How it works

  1. A product image and note go into a spreadsheet marked ready to run
  2. The system pulls the image and sends it to Gemini to create a branded ad-style version
  3. The branded image is sent to FAL to generate a short promotional video
  4. The system checks in until the video is finished rendering
  5. The finished video is saved to Google Drive and linked back in the spreadsheet
What you get

Promo videos ready without a shoot

You get a branded product photo and a short promotional video created automatically and saved to your Google Drive.

What you get

A branded product image and a short promotional video, with the links saved in your spreadsheet.

What you need

A Google Workspace account, a Gemini API key, and a FAL API key.

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.
