Opus 5.5 is good at explainer videos
Launchvideo uses Claude Opus 5.5 in a serverless agent to render explainer MP4s from a URL or prompt.
Launchvideo.io turns a URL or prompt into a product explainer by having Claude Opus 5.5 write the film as code, which a serverless OpenComputer agent renders to MP4. Each job runs in a fresh Amazon Linux 2023 arm64 microVM with 4 vCPU and 8 GB RAM, using roughly 90k input and 15k output tokens and finishing in about four minutes. Three tools fetch the site, check scenes for errors and visible text, and pipe 1920x1080 JPEG frames at 30 fps through ffmpeg. The agent holds no secrets; a Vercel Blob upload token scoped to one path lasts three hours.
- Opus 5.5 writes each explainer as code, not with a video model.
- A typical film uses about 90k input and 15k output tokens.
- Rendering uses headless Chromium and ffmpeg in a disposable microVM.
- The TypeScript agent deploys to OpenComputer with one command.
