Use cases

Branding that scales with your content output

🎨

Brand builders

Every clip reinforces your visual identity — logo in corner, consistent colours, branded outros.

💼

Agencies

Manage per-client branding configurations and deliver branded clips without any manual editing.

📺

Multi-channel creators

Different branding configs per channel — logo, colours, and outros all vary by content type.

🏢

Corporate content

Enforce brand guidelines across all short-form content without a design review process.

🎙️

Podcast networks

Each show gets its own overlay config — logo, colour palette, and show name text on every clip.

📰

Media companies

Channel watermarks prevent content theft and maintain source attribution as clips spread.

🎓

Course creators

Brand clips with your school's identity and drive viewers back to your full course platform.

🎭

Entertainment brands

Season branding, show logos, and custom outros create a premium feel across all Shorts.

What you get

Every branding element you need, in one place

Logo positioning & sizing

Upload your logo PNG (ideally with transparent background) and configure its position (corner, top bar, lower third) and size. Applied to every frame of every clip.

Subtitle styling

Customise subtitle font, size, colour, and outline weight to match your brand. The same style is used across all clips — captions always look on-brand.

Intro frame

Upload a custom intro image or video clip (e.g. a 1-second animated logo reveal) that prepends every generated Short — instantly recognisable as your content.

Outro card

Add a branded outro card at the end of each clip — subscribe reminders, website URL, other channel links. Upload a static image or short video clip.

Per-customer isolation

On multi-tenant plans, each customer's branding is stored and applied separately. One account can't accidentally use another's logo — isolation is enforced at the database level.

Instant preview

Preview your overlay configuration on a sample clip before committing. See exactly how the logo, captions, and intro/outro will look on real content.

How it works

How overlays are applied to every clip

01

Config stored per customer

Your overlay configuration (logo URL, position, subtitle style, intro/outro paths) is stored in the customer_config table. The worker fetches your config by customer_id before processing any clip.

Overlay config loaded for customer
02

FFmpeg filter_complex composition

The overlay is applied using FFmpeg's filter_complex — stitching the video, logo watermark, burned-in subtitles, intro prepend, and outro append into a single render pass. No intermediate files, no quality loss from multiple encodes.

filter_complex: 4 overlay layers
03

Per-clip output

Each clip in the batch gets the full overlay treatment — logo, captions, intro, outro. The final MP4 is the exact file that gets uploaded to YouTube and X, with branding baked in permanently.
