General Process (How it works)

  1. Import assets Cause: raw media is available; Effect: the automation pipeline can start processing.
  2. Configure captions and rules Cause: language, style, and timing preferences are set; Effect: AI knows what to generate.
  3. Run AI draft Cause: rules are defined; Effect: captions and b-roll cues are produced.
  4. Review timing and accuracy Cause: AI may misalign timing; Effect: human review fixes alignment and errors.
  5. Apply quality and accessibility checks Cause: ensure punctuation and alignment; Effect: outputs meet accessibility standards.
  6. Export draft and assets Cause: quality checks pass; Effect: deliverables ready for publishing or hand-off.
  7. Iterate and tune templates Cause: feedback from reviews exists; Effect: templates and rules improve for future projects.
