Make template ad
Render a NATIVE-STYLE TEMPLATE ad from pure HTML — no AI video/image model in the loop, renders in ~30 seconds for a couple of credits. Perfect for native-feel social ads at volume. YOU author the content (short, casual, believable — never marketing-speak). Templates (pass as config.template): 'imessage-chat' (VIDEO ~15s: a real-looking iMessage thread where a friend reveals the product as a rich-link card; config: { thread: { contactName, messages: [{from:'them'|'me', text?, product?:{image,title,domain}}] }, theme?:'dark'|'light', endCard:{headline,cta,domain,logo?,color} } — 4-6 short lowercase bubbles, product card mid-thread from 'me', 1-2 excited replies after); 'chatgpt-chat' (VIDEO: a ChatGPT answer streams the punchline; config: { question, answer (may **bold** the brand), productImage?, endCard }); 'apple-notes' (VIDEO: an iPhone note types itself out; config: { title, lines: string[], theme?, endCard }); 'value-prop' (VIDEO ~17s kinetic typography: config: { hook (≤40 chars), claims: string[] (3-5 COMPLETE phrases, ≤6 words / ≤34 chars each — a finished thought, NEVER a clipped clause like 'Looks good on any'), productImages: string[] (2-3 DISTINCT photos — one rotates per card), palette: string[], endCard }); 'static-mockup' (IMAGE: config: { style:'imessage'|'notes'|'card', size?:{w,h}, ...style fields }); 'airdrop-carousel' (VIDEO ~10s: an iOS AirDrop share card springs up and cycles 3-16 REAL product photos to a full-lineup payoff; config: { brandName, products: [{image, title?}], contactLine?, endCard }); 'app-ui-tour' (VIDEO ~12-16s for APP brands: floating-iPhone mockup walks through REAL app screenshots with kinetic captions; config: { hook?, appName, iconImage?, beats: [{screenImage, caption}] (2-6), palette?, fontStack?, endCard }); 'imessage-cascade' (VIDEO ~12s: iOS notification banners spring in and stack over a blurred backdrop; config: { notifications: [{sender, text}] (4-8), backgroundImage?, endCard }); 'photo-grid' (VIDEO ~8s: collage assembles real photos one at a time; config: { title?, photos: [{image, label?}] (4-9), palette?, fontStack?, endCard }); 'vignette' (VIDEO ~12s: cinematic Ken-Burns hero film; config: { hook, lines: [2-4 ≤40ch], heroImage, palette?, fontStack?, endCard }); 'kinetic-type' (VIDEO ~9-15s typographic motion design with NO VOICEOVER — it is NOT a silent asset: it always carries its own synthesised SFX (whoosh/tick/chime) and, once a curated track is on file, the family's loudest music bed at -16 LUFS; config.music:'off' silences the bed but never the SFX: 3-6 short phrases each land word by word on a full-bleed brand card (product beats caption the phrase over the photo instead), the longest word picked out in the brand accent, and a skewed accent slab wipes every cut; supply productImages and every OTHER beat becomes a full-bleed product shot with its phrase captioned over it — with none it renders as pure typography, so it needs NO photos; config: { phrases: string[] (3-6, ≤34 chars each — punchy, declarative, ONE idea per phrase, a finished thought never a clipped clause), productImages?: string[] (up to 4 DISTINCT photos), palette?: string[], fontStack?, endCard }); 'myth-vs-fact' (VIDEO ~15-26s VO-FIRST kinetic explainer with a real VOICEOVER — the family's ONE paid-audio format: a calm-authority read busts 2-4 myths, each MYTH line slamming in with a red per-line strike then the counter FACT line landing bold+affirmative, word-level KARAOKE lighting each word as the VO speaks it; config: { pairs: [{ myth (≤50ch, the common wrong belief), fact (≤60ch, the corrective truth — wrap its payoff phrase in [brackets] to accent it) }] (2-4), palette?, fontStack?, endCard }. Real product truths only — NEVER invent stats. Costs the flat template credits PLUS a small voiceover charge); 'carousel' (MULTI-IMAGE: 5-10 branded 1080×1080 PNG slides for Meta/LinkedIn/IG carousels — returns an images[] array, one PNG per slide; config: { cover: { hook?, title }, slides: [{ headline (≤8 words), support? (≤16 words), stat?: { value, label } }] (3-8; a stat slide is a REAL user-supplied number like '94%' or '40k+' + a label, never invented), cta: { headline, cta?, domain? }, productImage?, logo?, palette?, fontStack?, endCardColor? }). Every VIDEO format except myth-vs-fact (VO-first, deliberately dry) also gets a mood-matched MUSIC BED when a curated track is on file (the library ships empty — no track means no bed, never a paid generation) under its own SFX, from the curated library — free, no model, no extra credits; set config.music:'off' for a silent cut or a mood name (upbeat/calm/warm/epic/tense/playful/elegant/hype/chill/dramatic) to re-mood it. Image URLs may be any public URL — the server localizes them. Spends a couple of credits.

post_edit#
Post-production edit
MECHANICAL post-production on an EXISTING rendered video (its served mp4 URL) — an ordered plan of whitelisted primitives executed by ffmpeg (+ Chrome for typeset cards) in seconds for ~2 credits flat, NO AI model, the original untouched (returns a NEW video). The lane for: append a branded end card ('add an end card with our logo and website' — ADDS its seconds, never re-renders), trim, speed (0.5-2x), mute (whole or a window), audio_gain (-20..+6 dB), fade_out, corner logo watermark, anti-AI film grain. Up to 6 ops per plan, applied in order. Brand assets (name/domain/logo/accent) load from the workspace brand automatically; override per-call if needed. NEVER use generate_video/render_ad for these mechanical asks.
