Creative Studio

Creative Studio (/creative and aicmo creative) produces high-converting video and image assets for your SaaS product.

Instead of paying production agencies thousands of dollars for product walkthroughs or launch videos, Creative Studio automates the full creative pipeline from git commits or feature releases.

Production Pipeline Stages

A Creative Studio run coordinates multiple specialized jobs in order:

[Storyboard Plan] → [Product Capture] → [Voiceover & Audio] → [Video Render] → [QA Validation]

1. Storyboard Planning (creative_plan):
   • The Creative Agent analyzes your product URL, positioning brief, and feature requirements.
   • Produces a multi-scene visual script with camera directions, on-screen text, and voiceover timing.
2. Product Capture (creative_capture):
   • Automated headless browser sessions navigate your application to capture crisp, high-resolution interface recordings.
   • Highlights active buttons, zooms in on form interactions, and records realistic workflow demos.
3. Voiceover & Music (creative_audio):
   • Generates natural, human-sounding voiceover tracks synchronized to each scene.
   • Pairs narrative audio with subtle background music mixed to professional broadcast standards.
4. Video Rendering (creative_render_per_sec):
   • Cloud GPU workers composite animations, screen captures, subtitles, and audio tracks into final MP4 deliverables.
   • Generates aspect ratios for X/LinkedIn (16:9), Instagram/TikTok (9:16), and thumbnail stills (1:1).
5. QA Review (creative_qa):
   • An automated visual verification pass checks video timing, text readability, audio sync, and brand color conformity.
