Last updated: August 1, 2025

Two months ago, a B2B SaaS company asked us to help scale their video content. They were producing 4 videos per month at $1,200 each. Total cost: $4,800/month for 4 videos.

They wanted 100+ videos monthly for social media, ads, email, and landing pages. At their current rate, that would cost $120,000/month.

Instead, we built them a Content Factory that produces 120+ videos monthly for $47.

Not $47 per video. $47 total.

Here’s the complete blueprint.

The Video Content Problem

Video content dominates every platform. Yet most companies can’t produce enough of it.

Why Traditional Video Is Expensive:

Per-Video Costs:

Time Requirements:

For a small team, producing even 10 videos monthly is prohibitive.

The Content Volume Gap

What Marketing Needs:

Total: 85+ videos monthly (minimum)

What Most Teams Produce:

The gap between need and capacity is massive.

The Content Factory Solution

We built a system that produces video content at scale using:

  1. AI for script generation
  2. Template-based video creation
  3. Automated b-roll and stock footage
  4. AI voiceover
  5. Programmatic editing
  6. Automatic captioning and localization

The result: 100+ professional videos monthly for $47 in total costs.

The Production Pipeline

Stage 1: Content Planning and Scripting (Day 1)

Input:

AI Script Generation:

We use GPT-4 to generate scripts for multiple video formats simultaneously.

Prompt Template:

You are an expert video content strategist for B2B SaaS.
BRAND VOICE:
{brand_voice_guidelines}
TARGET AUDIENCE:
{persona_description}
VIDEO FORMATS NEEDED:
1. 30-second Instagram Reel
2. 60-second LinkedIn video
3. 15-second TikTok
4. 90-second YouTube Short
5. 30-second ad variation A (pain-focused)
6. 30-second ad variation B (solution-focused)
TOPIC: {content_topic}
KEY MESSAGE: {main_message}
CTA: {call_to_action}
Generate scripts for all 6 formats. Each script should:
- Hook viewers in first 3 seconds
- Deliver value quickly
- Match platform conventions
- Include natural CTA
- Be optimized for silent viewing (captions matter)
Format as JSON with: platform, duration, script, visual_notes, caption_text

Output:

{
"instagram_reel": {
"duration": 30,
"hook": "Your CRM is costing you 20 hours/week",
"script": "Most sales teams waste 20+ hours weekly on CRM data entry. Here's what changed for one team...",
"visual_notes": "Screen recording of CRM, time-lapse of manual work, result dashboard",
"captions": "FULL captions, every word",
"cta": "Link in bio for full case study"
},
"linkedin": {
// similar structure
},
// ...other formats
}

Batch Processing:

We generate scripts for:

Total: 156 scripts generated in 15 minutes.

Cost: $4 in API calls

Stage 2: Visual Asset Collection (Day 1-2)

Source 1: Stock Footage (Artgrid, Pexels, Pixabay)

We maintain a categorized library:

Automation:

FOR each script:
1. Extract key concepts from visual_notes
2. Search stock library for matching clips
3. Download and categorize
4. Add to project folder

Source 2: Screen Recordings

We pre-record:

These become our b-roll library.

Source 3: Generated Graphics

For data visualizations and infographics, we use:

Total Time: 2 hours to set up library (one-time) Ongoing: 30 minutes/week to add new assets

Stage 3: Voiceover Generation (Day 2)

AI Voiceover Services:

We tested 5 providers:

ElevenLabs (Winner):

Alternatives:

Process:

for script in scripts:
voiceover = elevenlabs.generate(
text=script['text'],
voice="professional_male_1",
model="eleven_multilingual_v2"
)
save_audio(voiceover, f"{script['id']}_vo.mp3")

Output: 156 voiceovers generated in 45 minutes, unattended.

Quality: 95% of listeners can’t distinguish from human voiceover.

Cost: $22/month (within character limits)

Stage 4: Video Assembly (Day 2-3)

This is where the magic happens. We use programmatic video editing.

Tools: Remotion (React-based video creation)

Why Remotion:

Video Template Structure:

const VideoTemplate = ({script, voiceover, assets}) => {
return (
<Composition
id={script.id}
component={VideoContent}
durationInFrames={calculateDuration(voiceover)}
fps={30}
width={1080}
height={1920} // Vertical for mobile
>
<Sequence>
<Hook>{script.hook}</Hook>
<MainContent>
{script.scenes.map((scene, index) => (
<Scene
key={index}
footage={assets[scene.assetId]}
text={scene.text}
duration={scene.duration}
/>
))}
</MainContent>
<CTA>{script.cta}</CTA>
</Sequence>
<Audio src={voiceover} />
<Captions src={script.caption_file} />
</Composition>
);
};

Automatic Elements:

  1. Captions:

    • Auto-generated from voiceover
    • Styled per brand guidelines
    • Highlighted keywords
    • Perfect synchronization
  2. Transitions:

    • Smooth cuts between scenes
    • Branded transitions
    • Automatic timing based on voiceover pace
  3. Brand Elements:

    • Logo watermark
    • Color overlays
    • Font styling
    • Intro/outro animations
  4. Dynamic Text:

    • Statistics and data points
    • Animated on-screen
    • Timed with voiceover mentions

Batch Rendering:

Terminal window
# Render all videos
npm run render-all
# Outputs:
# - videos/instagram/reel_001.mp4
# - videos/linkedin/post_001.mp4
# - videos/tiktok/short_001.mp4
# ...etc

Render Time:

Stage 5: Platform Optimization (Day 3)

Each video is automatically optimized for its target platform:

Instagram Reels:

LinkedIn:

TikTok:

YouTube Shorts:

Facebook/Instagram Ads:

Automated Variations:

For each piece of content, we generate:

One script → 6+ video variations automatically.

Stage 6: Distribution (Day 4)

Automated Scheduling:

We use Buffer/Hootsuite API integration:

for (video of completed_videos) {
const post = {
platform: video.platform,
media: video.file_url,
caption: video.caption,
scheduled_time: getNextSlot(content_calendar),
hashtags: generateHashtags(video.topic)
};
buffer.schedulePost(post);
}

Smart Scheduling:

Cross-Platform Distribution:

Single video → automatically posted to:

One piece of content, 6+ placements.

Advanced Strategies

1. Content Atomization

Take one long-form piece and create 20+ short videos:

Source: 45-minute webinar

Atomized content:

Total: 56 pieces from one webinar

2. Trend Jacking

Monitor trending topics and auto-generate relevant content:

// Daily automation
trendingTopics = fetchTrending(['linkedin', 'tiktok']);
for (topic of trendingTopics) {
if (isRelevantToOurNiche(topic)) {
script = generateScript(topic, ourPerspective);
video = createVideo(script);
schedulePost(video, priority='high');
}
}

Post within 4-6 hours of trend emerging.

3. Personalized Video at Scale

Generate personalized videos for high-value prospects:

Template video + prospect name + company name + custom pain point
= Personalized outreach video

Use Case: Sales Prospecting

4. Multilingual Content

Same script → 12 languages automatically:

languages = ['en', 'es', 'fr', 'de', 'pt', 'it', 'ja', 'ko', 'zh'];
for (lang of languages) {
translatedScript = translateScript(originalScript, lang);
voiceover = generateVoiceover(translatedScript, lang);
video = createVideo(translatedScript, voiceover, lang);
}

Global reach with zero additional effort.

5. Dynamic Content Updates

Videos that automatically update with new data:

// Video template references live data
const VideoTemplate = ({dataSource}) => {
const stats = fetchLatest(dataSource);
return (
<Video>
<Text>
{stats.customers} companies trust us
</Text>
<Text>
${stats.savings} saved on average
</Text>
</Video>
);
};

Videos stay fresh without manual updates.

Getting Started Today

You don’t need to build everything at once.

Minimum Viable Content Factory:

Tools needed:

Process:

  1. Write scripts with ChatGPT
  2. Generate voiceovers with ElevenLabs
  3. Create videos in Canva (basic but functional)
  4. Post manually to start

This gets you 20-30 videos/month with 5-10 hours of work.

Once you prove the value, upgrade to the full system with Remotion and automation.

The Bottom Line

100+ professional videos per month for $47 isn’t a fantasy. It’s happening right now.

The companies winning on social media in 2025 won’t be the ones with the biggest production budgets. They’ll be the ones with the smartest systems.

Traditional video production can’t scale. The Content Factory can.

The technology exists. The ROI is proven. The question is: when will you build your Content Factory?

Your competitors are already doing it.
