Personalized videos at scale
Templates take data as parameters and render in batches on your own servers or cloud functions such as AWS Lambda and Google Cloud Run.
Teams building video apps
The Remotion Player embeds live video previews in a web app, and Editor Starter is a starting point for a full video editor.

Agent Skills and plugins let a coding agent write the Remotion code from a description of the video you want.
