What it does
An agent-run studio: your agent installs it, asks five onboarding questions, then takes each video through concept, script, cast, storyboard (GPT Image 2.5), a Production Book with a budget you approve, filming on Seedance, auto edit and vision QC. The UGC ad playbook enforces a 0-3s hook, product on screen by 3s, 150-180 wpm, one CTA and a 5s hook-only test before paying for full length. The budget is locked in code once approved, and an audio-first radio cut sets shot lengths. Needs APIMart or Kie.ai keys plus ElevenLabs, Node 22, Python 3.10 and ffmpeg; UGC ads cost about $1-3 each per the README.
Use when
- Make a creator-style UGC product ad from your product shots
- Produce several hook and format variants of a product ad on a locked budget
- Run a whole video pipeline from script to QC with approval gates
- Make an AI influencer or clone-me video with your own face and voice

git clone https://github.com/LordVayron/video-factory.git && cd video-factory && npm run setup - Any agent, with the vargai CLI:

More ads & UGC skills
- Ecommerce video ad skills for Claude Code and AI agents: Product videos that sell on TikTok, TikTok Shop, Reels and Meta: angle, hook, format, script, rules, variants.
- Turn a product into scroll-stopping video hooks: The first 3 seconds of a product video: frame, line and text that agree, from a 70-line hook bank.
- Open-source alternative to Arcads: AI UGC ads: AI UGC ads with an AI actor holding your real product: face, voice and label locked, labelled.
- Turn one winning ad into a creative testing plan: How many ads to test, what to change, when to judge, kill or scale — concepts Meta sees as different.
- Turn a product into a dropshipping guide reel: The faceless "comment GUIDE" reel: product hook, a marker pointing at cost and price on a laptop, a skyline ending.
- Turn product photos into a viral product hook: Find a hook that already sells, then remake it with your product as phone or security-cam footage on Seedance 2.5.
