PageToVid

[Free] Adds a timestamped comment; open comments feed the editor's AI revision.

[Free] Approves the pending round, as one of its approvers.

[Free] Stops a running render and refunds its render credit and any AI visual still in flight; AI visuals already made stay (reused free). Use it when get_storyboard shows a plan you do not want. A finished render cannot be cancelled. The video is marked cancelled at once; the worker stops at its next step.

[Free] Copies a scene into another of your videos with its footage and generated media, so nothing is filmed or generated again. A recording cannot change aspect, nor go into a film made from data. Does not re-render.

[40 credits] From content you hold (figures, notes, story), no URL. You write scenes; each drawn, voiced, captioned (list_motions: 25 visuals, some with kinds; visual "rushie" = 964 designed cards, e.g. data {rushie:{template:"end-card",props:{headline,mark,url,cta}}}). AI clips (paid plans) only if asked: data.generate (+data.clip) per scene, or ai_mode rich (assist: stills), the server picks scenes, writes prompts; dry_run shows ai_plan.added. Returns a receipt; get_video for the full status.

[Free or 40 credits] Names a character so generated clips that name it keep one identity. refs (1 to 3 image URLs on this account) is free; a generate prompt DRAWS the reference (paid plans, refunded on failure). Then an image scene's data.clip=true and data.character="<name>". From one of your films take raw_frame_url, never thumbnail_url: its burnt-in text teaches the generator to draw text.

[Free] A format is how an episode is made — aspect, language, voice, music, tone, goal, length, cards, brand, theme, the brief or the scene templates — and knows nothing about any subject. It is versioned: update_format writes a new version, shows pin one or follow latest, and every episode records the version that made it. Validated now against a sample item; nothing is rendered.

[Paid plans] Designs a custom motion graphic from a brief (one text-model call; AI plans or a film pass; no credits charged), checks layout, legibility, contrast and timing, and saves it as a private template with params. Use it in a scene: visual "motion", data {motion:{specId, params}}.

[Free] Names a product, logo, packaging, place, vehicle or UI screen from reference images so films keep it identical. Generated pictures take it in data.objects (clips, stills, insets, generate_asset) next to a character; image, gallery, pricing and compare cards draw it from data.object with its name and price.

[Free] A link to watch the film and, if allowed, comment with no account. Shown once; only its hash is stored.

[Free] A show makes a video from each new item in a feed: a weekly release video from a changelog, a daily listing video from an RSS feed, a clip per new post. Episodes are ordinary videos made by run_show or, once confirmed, by the scheduler at the show's cadence. A new show is HELD: nothing renders until its owner has called run_show once with confirm=true, and it never spends more than max_credits_per_day.

[Free] A one-hour address to send a file you hold (picture, clip, music, font, PDF/PPTX deck, ≤ 30 MB): curl -sS -T <file> "<upload_url>". The reply is the asset or the deck's slides.

[40 credits] [paid plans: + 40 per AI still unless ai_mode none; dry_run quotes] Turns a public web page into a narrated video: AI voiceover, motion graphics, optional subtitles. Asynchronous (minutes, sometimes past fifteen): returns a receipt with the video_id at once; get_video for the full status. A page behind a login is filmed only with a capture session from the VS Code or browser extension (Scale plan and up).

[Free] Deletes a character by name. Its reference images stay in your bank and clips made with it stay in their films.

[Free] Deletes an object by name. Its images stay in your bank and media made with it stays in its films.

[Free] Reads a public page's design tokens from its live CSS: accent colours, heading typeface, light or dark ground, corner style. Returns a theme ready for create_video, create_animation or rerender_video, plus any site colour the film cannot paint with and why.

[Free] A new format whose version 1 is the original's latest version, unpinned from its parent. Edit the copy without touching the original.

[40 or 311 credits] One AI still (40 credits each) or clip (house 311, a named model its list_models price) straight into your bank — no render. Clip controls are refused, with the allowed values, when the model is not sent them; model auto picks one and says why. best_of makes N and keeps the best graded (all N charged). Charged before, refunded on failure; dry_run quotes it free. Paid plans.

[40 credits] Per video started. One filmed video per get_site_plan idea without one (or the idea_ids given), of its verified page with its sourced brief as focus. Without confirm it lists what it would make and the cost, capped at the balance (the rest under needs_credits), creating nothing; confirm=true starts those. get_video reports each. A retry never starts an idea twice.

[Free] Reads this account. CALL THIS FIRST: plan, credits, whether AI visuals are available and charged, watermark, revisions, film passes, add-on clips, renders running, limits. Then: inspect_page (in the aspect you will film), create_video or create_animation, get_storyboard (the chosen shots), update_storyboard, rerender_video.

[Free] Who did what here, newest first: members, spending, review links, approvals, comments.

[Free] A site's brand kit, what a film paints from it (and what it cannot, with why), the effective watermark, and the account defaults beneath it.

[Free] The format's current template, its version history and the shows that run it, with each show's pin.

[Free] JPEG stills (≤ 1280 px wide) cut from the finished MP4 at 1–6 moments in seconds, as URLs. Cached per render.

[Free] The grammar for writing your own animation as a motion spec: no topic → a short index and the authoring loop; topic → one rule file (layers, params, timing, motion, colour, layout, doctrine, examples, brief). Generated from the DSL itself.

[Free] One template with its full spec (layers, motion tokens, declared params).

[Free] Up to 5 ranked videos a site should have, one per subject: goal, pitch, the real page it films (checked), the video made; detail full adds the brief, sources and shots. First call generates it (~10-20 s, no credit), then banks the site's images, videos and page clips in the background (media counts them). generate_site_videos works from it.

[Free] Reads this account. Returns the scene-by-scene plan of a video: what each scene narrates, its on-screen caption, how long it holds, and whether it is real footage of the page or a motion graphic (and which motion).

[Free] Each scene's start and end in the finished MP4 (seconds), what drew it (recording, page still, AI clip/still, footage, graphic, card, inset), its transition, its slice of the one voice track with word onsets, plus the music and caption style. timeline_source: stored by the render, or rebuilt from the scenes.

[Free] Reads this account. The full status of a render: phase and progress while it runs (with poll_after_seconds), then the files, length, credits, warnings and quality; on a free film, `upgrade` to relay once. `status` is one of, in pipeline order: draft, queued, analyzing, scripting, recording, voicing, rendering, held, done, error. In flight, so poll again after poll_after_seconds: queued, analyzing, scripting, recording, voicing, rendering. Terminal, so stop polling: held, done, error — a cancelled render ends as error with the reason in `error`, and a film can be done and still carry warnings. held: finished but unpublished by quality_gate. draft has not been queued.

[Free] Returns ready-to-paste markup for a finished PageToVid video: an HTML video element, Open Graph and Twitter player meta tags so the page unfurls as a playable video, and a schema.org VideoObject JSON-LD block.

[Free] Creates or replaces up to 50 objects from a product feed. Each image is downloaded (public addresses only) and banked as a reference. Failed rows are listed with the reason.
