ngram Product Update — Issue 011 | made with ngram

About the video

This video was created by ngram to summarize product changes shipped in issue eleven of its ongoing update series, using HTML/CSS motion graphics and a voiceover script delivered scene by scene. It opens by noting that MCP video generation, which had been broken, is now working again, and walks through three new public API additions: a brand kits endpoint, a pronunciation preview endpoint for testing rules before generating a full video, and confirm-before-generate settings configurable via the API. The video explains protagonist reference images, where dropping an image URL into a chat message lets ngram fetch, validate, and use it to seed a presenter's look. It covers the Script modal's new ability to play every scene's voiceover in sequence with clips stitched together, a restructured storyboard that now sits above the video as a scrollable row of scene cards, and a relocated upgrade nudge for free users. It also describes how stating a duration in a prompt now overrides the duration picker, how scenes can be edited or reordered by number without regenerating the whole storyboard, and two bug fixes: the editor no longer prompts to save unchanged work, and stale credit reservations are released every fifteen minutes. The video closes with a brief outro.
