Read the overview transcript
Animated Book Promo Studio turns an author-owned manuscript or image into a finished vertical promo. Start by attaching the book. For a full manuscript, the Studio reads every story-bearing chapter, builds a coverage ledger, and compares exact quotes with grounded teaser hooks across the entire story. You review the winning hook and visual direction before any paid generation. The Studio creates one clean fifteen-second animated shot with your chosen provider, then adds face-aware kinetic captions locally for sharper, more reliable text. It checks the finished MP4 and gives you the clean animation, captioned video, and poster frame, ready for TikTok, Reels, or Shorts.

No API key? Use Kling Web.
Sign into your normal Kling account yourself and let Codex work through the shared browser tab. The Studio reports the visible credit cost and asks before clicking Generate.
Prefer an API workflow?
Connect Kling, Runway, Veo, or Luma with an environment variable. Creation, polling, and downloading are separated so a failed status check cannot purchase a duplicate clip.
Whole-book hooks, not the first easy scene
The Studio accounts for every story-bearing chapter, mines exact-quote and grounded-teaser candidates, audits a global shortlist, and reranks the top five before choosing. It preserves quoted language and rejects unsupported or spoiler-heavy options.
Beautiful, centered kinetic type
The provider animates a clean image. Genre-matched captions are burned in afterward—clear, horizontally centered, balanced to one or two lines, inside social-safe margins, and moved vertically away from detected faces whenever possible.
How it works
- Install the downloadable Codex plugin.
- Attach an EPUB, DOCX, TXT excerpt, or image you own or may use.
- For a full book, let the Studio complete its chapter coverage ledger and global hook-and-teaser ranking before it selects the winner.
- Review the selected hook, visual direction, and five provider choices.
- Approve one clearly described generation only after seeing the provider, model, duration, quality, audio setting, and expected credit charge.
- Receive the clean animation, captioned MP4, and poster frame in Codex.
Spend and privacy guardrails
A configured API key or signed-in Kling tab is never treated as permission to spend credits. The Studio asks immediately before generation, never retries a paid generation automatically, never asks for your browser password, and keeps API credentials out of prompts and project files.
What you need
Codex, material you own or have permission to promote, and either a regular Kling account or your own supported provider API account. Provider availability, models, prices, and free-credit policies can change.
