How it works
Four steps from catalog PDF to finished product video.
The workflow starts with a live PDF upload or pasted catalog text. The storyboard comes before render so you can decide which products, categories, and claims stay in the cut.
Upload the catalog PDF
ngram extracts the readable text from the PDF and keeps product images or page visuals as source material where they help the scene.
Pick the product story
The agent turns category headers, product names, feature bullets, and offer copy into a concise script instead of reading the catalog page by page.
Review the storyboard
Each scene shows the narration, the on-screen callout, and the visual direction. Remove a product, tighten a claim, or ask for a different audience before rendering.
Render the video
Export MP4, GIF, or WebM in 16:9, 1:1, or 9:16. Captions, voiceover, Brand Kit, intro, and outro travel with the final video.
Output controls
What you control after the catalog becomes scenes.
Catalog-aware extraction
Product names, category headings, feature bullets, offer copy, and calls to action become editable source text for the script and storyboard.
Category pacing
Group related products into a single scene, lead with the hero collection, or skip low-priority pages so the video does not become a catalog read-through.
Editable script
Rewrite the hook, shorten the product descriptions, change the CTA, or ask for a sales version without touching a timeline.
Brand Kit on every scene
Logos, colors, fonts, motion style, caption style, intro, and outro apply across the catalog video from the same saved Brand Kit.
Scene visuals
Use catalog imagery where it works and generate branded supporting visuals for scenes that need more than a static product block.
Voiceover choices
Choose a voice from the library or use an approved team voice. The narration regenerates from the script when you edit the words.
Caption styling
Burned-in captions are generated from the script and styled with the Brand Kit, so silent feed viewers still get the product names and offer.
Channel ratios
Render 16:9 for embeds, 1:1 for feeds, and 9:16 for vertical posts from the same project with smart reframing per format.
The rest of ngram
The ngram features behind product catalog to video.
Script Generation

How it compares
If you've been turning catalog PDFs into video another way.
A manual edit gives control but starts from a blank timeline. Template editors move quicker but still make you translate the catalog into scenes. ngram reads the PDF or pasted catalog text first, then gives you an editable script and storyboard before render.
