Launch HN: Prism (YC X25) - Workspace and API to generate and edit
videos
Hey HN -- we're Rajit, Land, and Alex. We're building Prism
(https://www.prismvideos.com), an AI video creation platform and
API. Here's a quick demo of how you can remix any video with
Prism: https://youtu.be/0eez_2DnayI Here's a quick demo of how you
can automate UGC-style ads with Openclaw + Prism:

Making an AI video today usually means stitching together a dozen
tools (image generation, image-to-video, upscalers, lip-sync,
voiceover, and an editor). Every step turns into export/import and
file juggling, so assets end up scattered across tabs and local
storage, and iterating on a multi-scene video is slow. Prism keeps
the workflow in one place: you generate assets (images/video clips)
and assemble them directly in a timeline editor without downloading
files between tools. Practically, that means you can try different
models (Kling, Veo, Sora, Hailuo, etc) and settings for a single
clip, swap it on the timeline, and keep iterating without re-
exporting and rebuilding the edit elsewhere. We also support
templates and one-click asset recreation, so you can reuse
workflows from us or the community instead of rebuilding each asset
from scratch. Those templates are exposed through our API, letting
your AI agents discover templates in our catalog, supply the
required inputs, and generate videos in a repeatable way without
manually stitching the workflow together. We built Prism because
we were making AI videos ourselves and were unsatisfied with the
available tools. We kept losing time to repetitive "glue work" such
as constantly downloading files, keeping track of prompts/versions,
and stitching clips in a separate video editing software. We're
trying to make the boring parts of multi-step AI video creation
less manual so users can generate - review - edit - assemble -
export, all inside one platform. Pricing is based on usage
credits, with a free tier (100 credits/month) and free models, so
you can try it without providing a credit card:
https://prismvideos.com. We'd love to hear from people who've
tried making AI videos: where does your workflow break, what parts
are the most tedious, and what do you wish video creation tools on
the market could do?

| To be honest it doesn't take long to add a new model/params.
| It's evaluating the models to see if they're even worth
| including that takes the most time.

| We've found that Seedance is good at photorealitic faces,
| Kling is fantastic at generating audio (highest quality model
| in terms of syncing character's face to the words they say
| imo), and Sora is great at UGC.

| We support Kling 3.0 on our platform, similar to Higgsfield.
| You can see some presets here:

| Prism and Higgsfield are both similar in that we bring many
