About The Project

After seeing how low effort some online short-form content can be, I decided to make things worse by creating this program. With the click of a few buttons even you can now dilute the online space with even more pointless videos. Through automating the idea generation as well as narration and video, you have no excuse not to be mass-producing content online.
