Squad Leader, BrokerChooser
We decided on Plainly because we can quickly import an After Effects project, and the integration with their API was easy. It would take us ages to build a video creating feature in UltraViolet, so integrating with Plainly was a no-brainer and it paid off so far.
Leading AI/ML, Ultraviolet
We've used Plainly to automate the production of a large NFT collection. We literally had team members saying "It's like magic". To anyone who wants to automate video production, we recommend Plainly over any other alternative on the market!

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to know After Effects to use Plainly?
Technically, no. You don’t need to be an expert in After Effects to use Plainly. However, you or someone on your team will need to create the video template in After Effects first. Once the template is ready, you can upload it to Plainly and easily generate variations from there.
Can I create one-off videos, or is Plainly just for videos in bulk?
Yes, you can create single videos or generate them in bulk automatically.
Can I preview my videos before rendering?
You can generate preview versions of your videos. This lets you confirm that your data inputs and design look correct before processing the final version.
Does Plainly work with automation tools like Zapier or Make?
Yes, Plainly integrates directly with Zapier. For Make and other platforms, while there isn't a direct integration, you can use webhooks to connect and automate your workflows.
