How it works
How the Shorts AI Video Maker works.
Give ngram the source and the channel goal, review the short-form plan, then export the vertical cut instead of assembling every scene by hand.
Add the source
Type the brief, upload a JPG, PNG, WebP, or PDF, or paste a business URL. The agent reads the source for message, audience, proof, and visual cues.
Source ready
Review the vertical plan
ngram drafts the hook, script, scene order, visual direction, timing, and CTA before rendering the short video.
Plan reviewed
Generate the short
The project gets scene visuals, voiceover, captions, motion graphics, music, and brand treatment tuned for a short-form vertical cut.
Draft generated
Edit and export
Revise the draft in chat or the editor, export channel-ready files, then use live publishing integrations where available and manual upload everywhere else.

What it can do
What the Shorts AI Video Maker builds.
The tool is built for short-form creation, not a generic long-form video trimmed at the end. The source, hook, scenes, captions, and exports stay connected in one ngram project.
Hook and storyboard planning
ngram turns the prompt, image/PDF, or URL into a short script, opener, scene plan, and CTA that you can review before render.

Use the source page, image, PDF, or prompt to guide scene art, B-roll, product frames, and visual fills for the vertical draft.
Learn more about AI visualsCaptions for muted feeds
Generate burned-in captions from the script and narration, then style them with the active brand kit so the short reads without audio.
Learn more about captionsVoiceover matched to the cut
Create narration from the approved short script, pick a voice, and regenerate the audio after script edits without leaving the project.

Add lower thirds, product callouts, animated titles, transitions, logo treatment, and brand rules that fit short-form pacing.

Why ngram
How short-form video workflows differ.
Short videos can start as prompts, templates, or manual edits. ngram is built for source-led vertical creation that stays editable through captions, brand, and export.
| Compare | ngram | Prompt-only clip generators | Template editors | Manual editing workflow |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Workflow fit | Starts from a prompt, supported image/PDF, or business URL and turns it into a short script, storyboard, and vertical draft. | Usually strongest when the output is a short visual clip rather than a full branded social asset. | Good when the team already knows the exact layout, footage, copy, and caption style it wants. | Gives frame-level control, but every hook, caption, visual, sound bed, and export version is assembled by hand. |
| How ngram fits | Generates visuals, voiceover, captions, motion graphics, music, and brand treatment in one editable project. | May leave script, captions, voiceover, CTA, and brand review as separate steps outside the generator. | Often requires manual scene building, resizing, and caption placement for every destination. | Works for high-touch production when an editor owns the schedule and the source material is already organized. |
| Best use | Exports channel-ready files and supports live publishing integrations only where those integrations exist. | Useful for B-roll, but less complete when the source is a product page, PDF, or campaign brief. | Can move quickly for repeat formats, but source reading and storyboard planning stay with the user. | Slows down when every channel needs a separate vertical variant from a different prompt, URL, image, or PDF. |
