An onboarding walkthrough created through Claude from ngram’s current setup guide and genuine Studio screenshots. Callouts show the brief, source files and styles, followed by a diagram of plan review and preview.
Prompt
Use the connected ngram tools to prepare a customer onboarding video from this verified setup guide. The audience is new ngram customers creating their first source-led explainer. Source guide: https://help.ngram.com/en/articles/4759144-create-your-first-video Current Studio screenshots captured on November 2, 2026: - The Prompt to video composer with an example brief: https://www.ngram.com/media/workflows/claude-customer-onboarding-video/studio-brief.png - The Start from a style selector: https://www.ngram.com/media/workflows/claude-customer-onboarding-video/studio-styles.png Teach this first successful workflow: 1. Open Home and choose Prompt to video. In Video brief, describe the audience, main message and next action. Use Add files for source material you have permission to use. 2. Review the video settings and choose a visual direction under Start from a style. 3. Choose Create video. When the selected model prepares a plan, review its narration and scenes. Request changes as needed, then approve the plan when it matches the brief. ngram-flash starts production directly, so this example uses a model with plan review. 4. Play the finished preview and request any corrections in the same conversation. Close with “Create your first video from an approved brief.” Create a 45-second, 16:9 Product spotlight video with English narration under 100 words. Use the two supplied genuine screenshots as image assets. Keep the interface unchanged and use crops, subtle zooms and external callouts to guide attention to Video brief, Add files and Start from a style. Show the plan-review and preview stages with a clearly schematic three-step diagram, because no screenshot of those stages is supplied. Do not invent software screens, account data, customer results or extra controls. Keep the key UI labels readable. Include the source guide as a small closing reference. The video should help a new customer complete one first video. Show selected settings and the total estimate before creation. After I confirm, stop for plan review and bring back the complete narration and scene plan. Wait for approval before production. Continue the same video when I request progress. Do not create scheduled tasks or messages. Return its preview, ngram project link and MP4 export when ready. If the ngram connector is not connected, read https://www.ngram.com/markdown/docs/connect-ngram-to-claude.md?view=1 and help me connect ngram to Claude. Wait for me to complete sign-in and approve access, then resume this workflow.

If the workflow needs attention
Ask Claude to inspect the existing attempt and report the specific failed source or creation step. Continue with its video ID and project link.

- Check that the approved image URL is accessible. Ask Claude to pass public screenshots as image assets through ngram’s image_urls field and confirm their admission before production.
- The interface does not match the product
- Supply the current genuine screen and identify the outdated control or invented element. Revise the affected scene in the same video.
