Changelog

​

August 2026

• Video template API: build a template once (visual timeline studio or a single-file Remotion scene), render it with variables per request — POST /video/templates/:uid/render
• GIF output from the video engine: the same render call takes format: "gif" — palette-optimised (timeline templates: 15fps / 720px caps; code templates encode natively at half the composition frame rate)
• AI template generation: POST /video/templates/generate designs a motion brief, writes the scene code, compiles it, renders frames and reviews them visually before returning a draft template
• AI copilot in the studio: describe a change — or a whole video — and it is designed, built with validated edits, and reviewed, with one-click undo per run
• Captions from speech, stock media search, effects, keyframes, transitions and a font library in the timeline studio
• Server-rendered posters: every code template gets a thumbnail automatically

• Inbound hooks: a public URL per workflow that accepts rows from any system, with optional HMAC signature verification (X-Pictify-Signature)
• Run stats and per-row progress (total / rendered / delivered / failed)
• Saved-template plan limits enforced server-side, shared across image and video templates

• API Playground reorganised by product — HTML Rendering, Image Templates, Batch, PDF, Video — with PDF and video endpoints included for the first time
• Documentation corrected against the live API: real key format, real error shapes, real rate-limit behaviour
