ContentFries 2.0

Engaging subtitles for social media

Subtitle presets are a powerful feature. With it, you can generate engaging subtitles with a few clicks of a button. But it can be better.

That's why we plan to include these—currently missing—options:

• Word-after-word animations;

• Powerful letter animations;

• Transitions between subtitles;

• Option to change the font size of subtitle parts and more.

More video editing options

Context editor nor ContentFries is not a video editor, and never will be. But having all the basic video editing features would be very helpful.

On top of the current features, the Context editor in the 2.0 version will include the following:

• Support for video and gif overlays;

• Subtitle options mentioned above;

• Transitions and overlays;

• Improved UI;

• Possibly also video merging and jump cutting.

On top of that, the intro and outro would be visible in the preview also with your background music.

Template variables

The context system in ContentFries is powerful and integrated with templates. One of the hurdles is if you need a different template for some of your contexts.

In that case, you need to copy and paste your headlines between contexts. We will solve this with template variables, automatically populating your texts as expected.

Element Libraries

Think of reusable components. Wouldn't it be awesome to search and pick something you need without building it from scratch?

Or build your own library of elements or grouped elements and use it in your future projects.

Headlines generator

Catchy headline plays a huge part in catching the attention in our fast-paced world.

With an ever-decreasing attention span, you have to master this skill.

With the upcoming headlines generator feature, it will be easier than ever before.

Predefined defaults

If you use the same template, intro, and outro for your content pieces, this will save you even more time. We might put this one to the current version as well.

Non-linear content pieces

The next version of the content multiplier will support non-linear content pieces.

This means you will be able to pick a part of your transcription from the beginning, a second part from the middle, and a third from the end.

All of that without forcing you to cut out unwanted parts of your transcription.

Also, if for some reason you need to change the order of your parts, you will be able to with drag and drop.

Super fast transcriptions

Imagine you can get a transcription of your 2 hours long video in under 1-2 minutes.

The next version of the trimmer will also provide you with an option to do this. At the cost of slightly less accurate transcription. A great option if you're in a hurry!

Checkboxes

Chances are you don't have the time to proofread the transcription in one shot. Every text block will have a checkbox near it, so you can see what was proofread and what remains to be.

Notes

You can now mark down some notes to the transcription itself. But it might not be optimal.

That's why you will be able to store custom notes separately from the transcription. And they will also appear in the timeline.

AI summarizer

Our AI summarizer will pick the most important parts of your videos. We tested it on some long-form webinars, and it kept the context and the message intact. Another great time-saver!

Workspaces

This is a game-changer for teams. Create separate workspaces for different clients or different projects.

The workspace will work as a new, clean ContentFries account. As a team owner, you will be able to change who in your team has access to which workspace. You will also have the ability to attribute them the role or permissions you want.

Nested folders

Feature to organize stuff further. The use case is up to you. Great for fast filtering and better organization of content.

Tags

We're also considering tags, which might be great for:

• Better automatizations;

• More filtering options.

And what's the difference between tags and folders? It's simple. Fry can belong only to 1 folder, but can have as many tags as you want.

What I don't like is the interface gathering your fries and potatoes. It can quickly get messy, especially if you produce lots of content.

That's why I'm super excited about the new layout. It's cleaner, utilizes the available space better, and counts with many great improvements.

Bulk uploads

Currently, you can bulk-export all your pieces of content and then download them in a single zip file. But you can't upload more than one piece of content at once.

With the new uploader, you will be able to upload many pieces of content. No need to repeat the uploading process over and over again!

More team features

We already covered that you will be able to set custom roles for custom workspaces. But it doesn't end there. Limit how many transcription minutes can individual team members use.

Set custom permissions for them or integrate approval workflow with your clients. Our goal is to add powerful options like these while keeping the platform as easy to use as possible.

Text-to-video recipe

Turn your articles into videos. Paste the text of your blog post and let ContentFries generate a video out of it.

This recipe includes six steps:

• Paste the script of your article;

• Select a template;

• Set scenes and transitions;

• Pick an automated voice, or upload your voiceover. ContentFries will automatically sync text with the audio;

• Preview;

• Export and download.

Turning text into video with ContentFries 2.0 will be like a dream come true. On top of that, you will be able to use many other super-powerful features. I'm so excited about this!

Merger recipe

Simple to use interface that will allow you to cut, trim and combine videos and images. Pick fries, images, videos, or potatoes you want to combine into a single output.

Set transitions that should apply between individual parts. With this, it will be a breeze to turn dozens of images into a video slideshow.

Use it with your best-performing quote cards, chunks of bite-sized content... or even family pictures if you want to brighten up the day for your significant other. :)

Ever-growing list of recipes

With recipes, it will be easier than ever before to follow best practices.

Some recipes might include video-related workflow.

Such workflow would be specific to bite-sized content for TikTok or IG Reels.

A recipe like this would include steps like:

• Upload the video;

• Pick or confirm the template;

• Generate the transcription;

• Proofread the transcription;

• Finalize timings of subtitles;

• Pick a subtitle preset;

• Send for approval;

• Export, schedule or publish.

Now imagine that you can upload as many videos in the first step as you want. Then set the same template for all of these and let the system generate the transcriptions.

Afterwards, your team member responsible for subtitle proofreading will receive a notification. He can finish up step number four and five. The same person or your graphic designer can configure and set the subtitle preset. Or let the system do it without manual labor.

You or your client might then receive a notification to approve it. Once this is done, let the system auto-schedule depending on the context. If it is a "YouTube shorts" video and you want to publish one per day, the auto-scheduler can do that.

Can you see how powerful this can become?

Recipe maker

To release the full potential of this feature, some recipe builder is a must.

It's like in the kitchen. You need to pick or follow a good recipe to cook something delicious. We look at the content from the same perspective.

If your ingredients are valuable, you will be able to get the most out of them with ContentFries recipes. Leverage them to their fullest potential.

Video hosting

ContentFries uses bunny.net as a super powerful global content delivery platform. Since ContentFries stores your videos anyway, this might be the next logical step to take.

This opens up possibilities like building a content library. Set what is public and what's behind a paywall!

Automatizations

The possibilities are limitless. Set what should happen after you mark some of your content with a specific tag.

Mobile app

A simple mobile app that allows you to upload, or even edit videos on your mobile would be great. All of that without forcing you to use the desktop app.

Infographics maker

Great for Pinterest. Pick a predefined template or build an infographic without any designing skills.
