From your systems to a finished video

An event in your system can automatically trigger video creation. This could be a new CRM record, updated course content, or a submitted form. Your system sends the content and configuration to the API. Once the video is complete, a webhook notifies the connected system and returns the video link.

Connect video creation with your own LLM

Once approved, the content is sent to the simpleshow video maker API for video generation. Your content logic stays within your own infrastructure while simpleshow handles video production and design.

  1. Your LLM or content platform creates the text.
  2. Internal rules or approval processes review the content.
  3. The approved text is sent to the simpleshow video maker API.
  4. A video preview is generated.
  5. The project is refined and rendered.
  6. The finished video link is returned to your system.
