Roadmap
What we're working on
Planned
Add ability to preview designs.
Users should be able to preview designs before generating a video
Add Image slideshow to videos
Include the ability to include a series of images timed with audio in generated videos.
Advanced transcript formatting options
Ability to break lines for different speakers and to be able to add spacing. The ability to add formatting - bold, italics etc, and the ability to add free form text for sound effects or action notes
Lip-Synced Animated Photos for Speakers
Animated Avatars Seamlessly integrate with the current voice separation technology to ensure that each speaker has a unique animated representation, enhancing clarity and engagement.
Voice cloning
Make it possible for users to clone their own voices to be used with our text to speech functionality. Also, make it possible for users to be able to provide their own Elevenlabs keys.
Add Image to 3d video feature
Add the ability to upload an image and have it converted into a 3d video. Potentially Include a slideshow option.
Allow videos to be created and exported via an API
Will require a way of importing audio and exporting video, potentially somewhere like dropbox. Potentially add Zapier integration.
Allowing CNAME and white labelling of the video landing page.
This means that people could easily display videos on their own websites.
In progress
Enable teams or organisations so users can share assets/designs and videos.
Some people work with virtual assistants or in large organisations, so this would be useful for them.
Add more visualisers and support multicoloured visualisers and gradients!
Add more visualisers and progress bars! Possibility of enabling gradients and multicoloured items. Add the ability to "tune" the behaviour of visualisers slightly ie speed and movement. This will be an ongoing task with many incremental improvements, so it will probably stay under "In progress" for some time
Complete
Enable the reuse of designs in different aspect ratios
It would be great to be able to reuse the same design at different aspect ratios. A few things need to be worked out though, like what happens with a background image that is a different size. Are items moved to the center etc?
Allow embedding of videos in an external website
Embed videos in an iframe and share the html code on the video page so that users can embed the video into their own websites.
Allow uploaded videos to be used in generated videos
It should be possible to use the uploaded video as the background for a video generated by SoundMadeSeen
Add pauses in between text to speech paragraphs
Add ability to add pauses of variable lengths in between paragraphs for text to speech so it doesn't sound so jarring.
Advanced analytics tracking on video view page
Track video views for video views on the public view page and in embeds and display this in user's video page.
Bulk audio / video file uploads
Enable uploading of multiple audio / video files and have them process in the background.
Allow the uploading of arbitrary background videos
Enable users to upload videos that can be displayed as the background of their generated videos.
Remove filler words and pauses
Remove all annoying filler words - ums and ahs etc
Add a simple timeline editor and the ability to create intro and outro cards
We might want to have transitions between the elements of the timeline. Please note that this is a fairly large task and might take some time to implement, but is something We are definitely keen to move towards.
Allow users to upload their own transcription files
These files will need to be in vtt or srt format rather than plain text so we can extract timecodes.
Control width of subtitles
Phrased subtitles should be able to have their width set in the UI
Enable the addition of background music.
We may want to be able to adjust the volume of the background music, and users will need to acknowledge that they have legal rights to use the music
Enable Uploading of Custom Fonts
This would enable people to use their custom fonts in subtitles and text within their videos
Make background videos available in more colours
Update the UI so it supports selecting a type of video, then drilling down into the colour scheme.
Enable AI generated background videos.
Generate background videos using AI - potentially generate the prompts for these based on the user's audio content and synchronise the video with audio.
Allow uploading of animated gifs
Once in a video these will loop indefinitely
