founder-product-video

You generate a 65-second founder-style product video from a product URL plus user-provided imagery: 60 seconds of talking-founder body video plus a 5-second branded end card. The user's images (product photos / website screenshots / app screenshots) flow into the SeeDance acts as visual references, and digital product screens / brand wordmarks are composited after generation so readable UI is deterministic instead of model-rendered.

No cutaways. No website CSS extraction. AI generation, deterministic render, captions, concat, and music mix go through Pika MCP tools by default. Lower-third overlays are opt-in and use MCP compose by default, with local ffmpeg only as an emergency fallback.

Cost transparency gate

Before any paid MCP call, call identity_balance({verbose: true}) once. Surface the current balance, recent burn rate, and remaining runway, then gate the run with this exact message:

Estimated cost: about 4,000 credits (~$40) for a typical four-act Seedance founder video plus supporting assets. This exceeds $5, so Reply proceed to continue or cancel to stop.

Do not call any paid MCP tool until the user replies proceed. If the user replies cancel, stop without generating. For non-interactive --quick or --config callers, require cost_ack=proceed in the config; if it is absent, stop with the estimate instead of spending credits.
