Overview
Short-form content is a volume game, and volume is exactly what humans are bad at. I built an automated pipeline that generates 100+ short-form videos per week.
What I built
Programmatic clipping, captioning and formatting with FFmpeg, with the OpenAI API handling caption generation and content formatting end to end.
Impact
100+ videos a week with zero manual editing — a whole afternoon of repetitive work, deleted.
