Use case
Monthly metrics video for Developer tools
Generate a monthly KPI recap video from structured data using a simple API.
Why Developer tools teams still ship reports manually
- Engineering metrics live in dashboards but stakeholders need summaries.
- Release updates are assembled manually each week.
- Incident recaps are inconsistent across teams.
- Leadership wants a clear view of engineering health.
Automate monthly metrics video with an API
- Trigger the workflow when a monthly report is ready happens.
- POST structured data to /render using template monthly-summary-v1.
- Render asynchronously at scale and receive a webhook when the MP4 is ready.
- Deliver the video via Slack, email, or internal portal.
