Features and limits

One API, two workflows, one output format. Everything below is what the pilot does today.

Two workflows

Script to video

script-to-video
You send the exact text. It is narrated verbatim: no rewording, no added hook or call to action. Only leading and trailing whitespace is trimmed.

Prompt to video

prompt-to-video
You send a topic and a target duration (15 to 60 seconds, 30 by default). A script is written for you, split into scenes, then narrated. The duration is a target, not a guarantee.

What goes into each video

Narration

A single English voice reads the script. Word timings from the voice provider drive the captions and the scene cuts.

Stock footage

Each scene gets a vertical clip searched on Pexels from its keywords, cropped to the frame. When no suitable clip is found, a plain colored background keeps the video complete.

Captions

Large burned-in captions, grouped in short lines and highlighted word by word, kept clear of the interface of vertical platforms. The text is the script, word for word.

Music

A background track mixed under the voice, enabled by default and disabled with music.enabled = false.

Format

Vertical 1080x1920 MP4, H.264 video and AAC audio at 30 frames per second. The layout is fixed by the service.

Retention

The MP4 stays downloadable for 7 days after it is ready, then it is deleted. Download links are short-lived and requested again through the API.

Not in the pilot

  • No dashboard or web form: videos are created through the API.
  • No voice, theme or layout choice, and no editor.
  • No webhooks: poll the video status instead.
  • The MCP server for AI assistants is coming later.
