The problem it solves

Producing short, polished videos for social media usually means writing a script, sourcing visuals, recording a voiceover, and editing it all together. That's a lot of steps for one piece of content, especially if you need to publish often.

Who it fits

A content creator or marketing agency that wants to produce short videos at scale without a production team.

How it works

  1. You provide a topic idea
  2. AI writes a script broken into scenes
  3. Each scene is turned into an image and then animated into a short clip
  4. A voiceover is generated and layered over the clips
  5. The clips are stitched into one video and saved to Google Drive
What you get

Video drafts ready for a final look

You get a finished short video, from script to voiceover, built from a single idea and saved straight to your Drive.

What you get

A finished short video with visuals and voiceover, saved to Google Drive.

What you need

An OpenAI API key, an AI video generation account, Google Sheets, and Google Drive.

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.
