UGC Fans

Lists the ad templates, ad features and creation modes UGCFans offers, each with its slug, name and a sentence on what it makes. Free, and needs no sign-in. A template slug goes into ugcfans_make_ad as template; a feature slug as feature.

Shows the signed-in account's credits left, credits granted and spent this period, when they expire, its plan and whether the account is admitted to UGCFans. Free.

Finds the website of a business from its name, or reads an address. A name is searched on the web and each candidate site is read and ranked; when two sites carry the name about equally, ask is true and the person should say which is theirs. Returns each candidate's address, name, a sentence about it and the evidence for it. Free of credits.

Reads a business's website page by page (up to 25 pages) and writes its profile (business.md, every line with the page it came from) and its canonical facts (name, logo, colours, tagline, products with prices, claims; each with its page, and held for a yes where pages disagree or a claim has no proof). Returns a job whose result is a business id; read it with ugcfans_get_business. Free of credits.

Reads a business that was read: how far the reading is, its profile, and its facts with where each came from and whether it stands or waits for a yes. Optionally searches the pages for words. Free.

Saves the facts that stand (taken from the site, or confirmed by the person) as a brand kit and products with their pictures, and keeps business.md and facts.json in the library for later makers. Facts that wait for a yes are not saved. Free.

Opens a public web page in a sandboxed browser, records its text, pictures and layout, and returns a job whose result is a capture id. A capture is the raw material of ugcfans_make_launch_film and ugcfans_make_site_sting. Free of credits. Calling it confirms the person has the right to reuse the page's content in their own films. Only http and https pages on ports 80 and 443 can be captured.

Reads a finished capture: the address it ended on, the parts of the page that can go into a film (node_id, role and the first words), and whether a launch film can be made from it. Free.

Makes a 12-second launch film of the page's headline, button and picture from a finished capture, in the chosen frame, and returns a job. The result is an editable film; ugcfans_export_film renders it to MP4. Free of credits. A launch film has no text layers: its words are pictures of the page.

Makes a 12-second, 8-scene film from the page parts you choose (node_ids from ugcfans_get_capture), in the chosen frame. Unlike a launch film its page text stays as editable text, so ugcfans_set_film_words can change it. Free of credits. Returns the film and its first revision at once.

Makes an editable film from a finished video ad, so its captions and end card can be changed, and returns the film and its first revision. The ad must be finished, must not already be a film, must be a video and at most 96 MiB. Free of credits.

Changes text in a film: every text layer whose words contain find gets replace, and the result is saved as a new revision; the earlier revision stays as it was. Films made by ugcfans_make_launch_film have no text layers, so nothing changes in them. Free of credits.

Renders one revision of a film to an MP4 with a content credential, and returns a job; when it is done the result carries a link to the file. Free of credits. A film with an unresolved rendering requirement cannot be exported.

Runs up to 6 finishing operations in order on a clip of the library, each on the file the one before made: trim, reformat to another frame, burn in captions, overlay a brand logo, close with an end card, or mix in music. Returns the last job, whose result links the finished file. A call that runs past 4 minutes returns the job it is on and the operations still to run. Free of credits. The clip mus

Writes out the words of an audio or video file in the library, up to 10 minutes long, with the built-in speech model, and returns a job; when it is done the result has the transcript id, its text, the language and the length. The transcript id feeds the captions operation of ugcfans_finish_clip. Free of credits. Upload footage at https://ugc.fans/library first, then find its address with ugcfans_l

Lists files in the account's library, newest first: the path of each (out/...), its size and when it changed. Pictures, video, audio and fonts only. Free. Footage is added at https://ugc.fans/library; the path is what the clip and transcript tools take as source.

Makes a link that opens one file of the library for anyone who holds it, without signing in. A link lasts 6 hours; a showcase page, which carries the Made with UGCFans badge, lasts 30 days. Free. Anyone with the link can see the file until it expires.

Reads where a job stands: working, done with its files as links, failed with the reason, or cancelled. Free. Works for any job the account started.

Waits up to 45 seconds for a job to finish and reports where it stands, as ugcfans_get_job does. It returns as soon as the job ends. Free.

Stops a job that has not yet reached a provider; a cancelled job is not charged. A job that is already with a provider cannot be stopped and the call says so. Free.

Lists what UGCFans makes at each quality: stills, clips and talking clips, with the credits each costs per unit (an image, a clip) and whether a plan locks it. Free, and needs no sign-in. Signed out it is the whole price list; signed in it is what is on offer to this account, the model ids ugcfans_estimate and the make tools accept.

Prices a request without making it: the most it can cost in credits, the dollar figures behind it, any warnings, and a quote that is good for about 10 minutes. Free. The body takes the same fields as ugcfans_make_ad, ugcfans_make_image or ugcfans_make_video, without the quote; the make tool takes the quote back and refuses it if any field changed.

Makes a picture from a prompt, optionally following reference pictures, and returns a job; when it is done the result links the picture and a small one is shown inline. Spends the account's credits per picture (ugcfans_list_models gives each model's price). Call ugcfans_estimate first and pass its quote; without a quote this returns the cost and makes nothing.

Makes a video clip from a prompt, optionally beginning on a still, and returns a job; when it is done the result links the clip. Spends the account's credits per clip (ugcfans_list_models gives each model's price). Call ugcfans_estimate first and pass its quote; without a quote this returns the cost and makes nothing.

Makes a UGC-style ad from a product and a template or feature (testimonial, talking presenter, product video and others) and returns a job; when it is done the result lists the ad's files as links. Spends the account's credits; the cost depends on the feature and its length, so call ugcfans_estimate first and pass its quote. Without a quote this returns the cost and makes nothing. A presenter must

Writes an ad script from a product or a web page, or, given a saved script, writes alternative opening hooks for it or translates it, and returns a job whose result holds the script. Spends a few of the account's credits only with a held quote. Without one, returns the cost and makes nothing. Give product or page_url to write a new script; give script with hooks (how many) or with translate_to (a

Speaks a line or a saved script in a saved voice and returns a job whose result links the audio. Spends a few of the account's credits. Without a quote the call returns the cost and makes nothing; pass the quote with the same request after the person confirms it; a voice that cannot be priced ahead cannot be made here. A cloned voice needs its owner's recorded consent.

Puts a saved person on screen and returns a job: talking has them speak a line, motion has them move as a reference clip moves, swap puts them in place of the person in a clip, and product shows them holding a product (a picture). Without a quote, returns the cost and makes nothing. With a held quote, spends the account's credits; a talking clip costs about what its avatar model costs (ugcfans_lis

Reads a reference video of up to 3 minutes in the library and returns a job whose result is its breakdown: hook, structure, shots, pacing and look, with still frames, and none of its footage, sound or words. Without a quote, returns the cost and makes nothing. A held quote spends a few of the account's credits; rights_confirmed records the person's permission to study the file. Upload the video at

Saves a brand kit, a product, a generated presenter or a stock voice to the library for reuse in ads, and returns its id. Free. Only generated presenters (described in words, not a real person) and stock voices can be saved here: a real person's face or voice needs the consent the person records at https://ugc.fans/library. A new presenter has no picture until its portrait is drawn there.
