Product Update: Hyperframes Motion Graphics, Zapier, and Annual Credits Upfront

Since last week we've shipped 17 new motion graphics visual types from the Hyperframes catalog, opened Zapier to everyone, changed annual plans to release credits at subscribe time, and changed how the agent handles major script rewrites β€” it forks now instead of clearing your conversation. What's New 17 new motion graphics visual types β€” VS Code-style code snippets, Apple Terminal scenes, choropleth and hex maps, iOS 26 / macOS Tahoe liquid-glass surfaces, parallax zoom grids, gooey morphing text, velocity motion blur, cinematic vignette, and more. Ask for any of these by description in chat. Telugu narration language β€” now available in the language picker. Zapier integration now live β€” publicly available to all users via the Integrations section. Partner rewards + starter posts β€” earn credits by referring others; the app generates AI-written starter posts so you're not starting blank. MCP: cancel_video, per-user capability gating, richer confirm gate β€” stop a generation in progress, see only the options your plan supports, and get richer pre-generation review. prepare_video also returns inline option lists with display labels. Improvements Script rewrites fork instead of clear β€” major rewrites now fork your conversation from the script phase, preserving the original. Background music spans the full video β€” including visual padding after narration ends. The music modal also filters by video length. Caption style changes reflect immediately β€” no more stale MP4 snapshot in the editor. Uploaded assets inform script and storyboard β€” image and video descriptions flow into planning. Recurring subjects stay visually consistent β€” not just human protagonists; products and objects too. Annual credits granted upfront β€” full year at subscribe or upgrade time, not drip-fed monthly. Live billing card β€” real price, renewal date, and plan status in billing settings.

Product Update: MCP Fixes, Sequential Voiceover, and Smarter Scene Editing

Here's what shipped in the last couple of days. What's New MCP video generation fixed + new API endpoints β€” MCP video generation is working again. New endpoints: GET /api/v1/brand-kits (list brand kits), POST /api/v1/pronunciation-preview (test pronunciation rules before running a video), plus confirm-before-generate settings now configurable through the API. Protagonist reference images via URL β€” Paste an image URL into the chat when generating a video with a presenter, and ngram uses that image as the character reference instead of generating one from scratch. Improvements Script modal voiceover plays end-to-end β€” Hitting play in the Script modal now sequences through all scene clips continuously. No pre-merged file needed β€” scene clips stitch together on the fly the moment voiceover generation finishes. Storyboard above the video β€” Storyboard scene cards now sit above the video output as a scrollable row. The video frame resizes dynamically to fit the available space. Duration from your prompt wins β€” Writing "2-minute video" or "keep this under 90 seconds" in your prompt now correctly overrides the duration picker. A note appears in the script review step if the output still runs short or long. Delete, move, and insert scenes by number β€” "Delete scene 3" or "move scene 5 before scene 2" now applies surgically without regenerating the rest of the storyboard. Targeted voiceover re-generation also works by scene number. Bug Fixes Editor save dialog no longer appears when you haven't made any edits. Fixed false "insufficient credits" warnings β€” stale reservations from interrupted sessions were inflating the reserved balance. A cleanup job now runs every 15 minutes.

Product Update: Eye Contact AI, App Library, and a Faster Video Flow

Since our last update, ngram shipped a brand-new tool, a faster path from prompt to finished video, and a stack of new controls. Here's what's new. New features Eye Contact AI β€” a dedicated tool that redirects an on-camera speaker's gaze so they appear to look straight into the lens. Now handles clips up to 10 minutes. App Library β€” browse and launch every ngram tool from inside the app, instead of going back to the marketing site. Brand Kit import from a URL or PDF β€” paste your website or upload a brand-guidelines PDF and ngram extracts your colors, fonts, and logo automatically. YOLO and PRO agent modes β€” run a video end-to-end, or pause after the storyboard to approve the plan before any visuals are generated. Play your voiceover in the Script modal β€” listen to the generated narration with one click while reviewing the script. Caption style picker β€” captions on/off plus 16 caption-style presets that persist across edits. Video Styles β€” pick a style template built from a real reference video that steers the script, storyboard, imagery, and music. 2-minute and Auto video lengths, rename and delete conversations, delete account, consistent characters across scenes, and editing AI images inside motion-graphics scenes. Improvements A faster flow with fewer approval stops, a full voice and avatar picker in the prompt wizard, a reworked art-direction picker, clearer credit messages with one-click download, smarter Before We Start setup, and mobile polish. Bug fixes Fixed motion-graphics export, navigating chats during a render, recovering a broken conversation, chat input lag, deleted-file persistence, audio across scene cuts, and removed the forced logo intro/outro.
