End-to-End AI Video Production Platform

For: Small agencies, individual creators, and marketing teams wanting professional AI video results without technical expertise

Buildability

The Problem

The current AI video workflow requires juggling multiple tools (ChatGPT, Rev, Figma, V3, editing software) with complex handoffs between each stage, creating friction and quality loss.

The Solution

An integrated platform that automates the entire workflow from script input to finished video, with built-in approval gates, team collaboration, and brand consistency tools.

Why Now?

Individual AI tools have reached quality thresholds, but integration is still manual and complex. Sora shows demand exists but isn't ready for professional workflows yet.
