Shotstack, worked by an AI employee

Not another app for your team to learn, and not a set of rules for you to build. You hire an AI employee, you give it access to your Shotstack account, and you ask it for things in Slack or Teams the way you would ask anyone else on the team. There is nothing to map and nothing to maintain.

What Shotstack is

Shotstack is a cloud-based platform that enables developers, marketers, and designers to automate the generation of videos, images, and audio at scale using a RESTful API.

You paste in a key from your own Shotstack account. It is kept encrypted, and you can withdraw it from inside Shotstack whenever you like.

How a run works

One message in, the work done in Shotstack.

  1. 01

    You ask

    You message your AI employee in the chat your team already has open, in one sentence, in your own words.

  2. 02

    It works out the step

    It decides what the job needs in Shotstack. You do not pick anything from a menu or wire anything together.

  3. 03

    It does the work

    Signed in to your own Shotstack account, inside the access you granted it, doing the thing you asked for.

  4. 04

    It reports back

    It tells you what it did, in the same thread. If it could not do something, it says so rather than guessing.

What it can do in Shotstack

There is nothing ready made for Shotstack yet, so this one is worth a conversation before you count on it. Your AI employee can still be given access, and if there is something specific you need done in there, tell us and we will tell you straight whether it can.

Ask about your software
Access, and who is in charge of it

You stay the boss of your Shotstack account.

Nothing connects until you approve it. You grant access one app at a time, you can take it back the same way, and everything your AI employee does in there is written down where you can see it.

How we handle your data
  • It signs in to your own Shotstack account. You are not moving anything into ours.
  • You grant access one app at a time, and you can take it back the same way.
  • Everything it does in Shotstack is written down, with what it did and when.
  • Anything you tell it to check with you first, it checks with you first.

It works in Shotstack and the rest of your software in the same job

A real job rarely stays in one place. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in another and writing the result in a third is one request to your AI employee, not three.

Questions people ask about Shotstack

Can an AI employee really work inside Shotstack?
Yes. It signs in to your own Shotstack account and works in it the way a new hire would, from the chat your team already has open. Nobody installs anything, and nobody learns a new screen.
Do I have to move anything out of Shotstack?
No. Nothing moves and nothing is replaced. Your records stay in Shotstack, your team carries on in the same screens they used yesterday, and your AI employee works alongside them in there.
How does it get into my Shotstack account?
You paste in a key from your own Shotstack account. It is kept encrypted, and you can withdraw it from inside Shotstack whenever you like. You approve it before anything connects, and you can take the access back the same way you gave it.
What can it actually do in Shotstack?
There is nothing ready made for Shotstack yet, so it is worth asking us before you count on it. Your AI employee can still be given access to your account, and we will tell you straight what it can and cannot do in there.
Can it use Shotstack and the rest of my software in the same job?
Yes, and that is usually the point. Reading a message in one app, checking a record in Shotstack and writing the result somewhere else is one request to your AI employee, not three separate ones you stitch together.
Who decides what it is allowed to do in Shotstack?
You do. You grant access one app at a time and can withdraw it at any time, anything you ask it to check with you first it checks with you first, and everything it does in Shotstack is written down with what it did and when.
