AI TALK SHOWS

Your topic.
Their personality.
Your show.

Pick a late-night format: investigative desk, political dissection, dual-anchor news, variety monologue, or long-form podcast. Give it any topic. An agent researches it, writes it, casts the voices, and produces the episode unattended.

HOW IT WORKS
01

Pick a show

Choose from talk show templates — each with unique host personalities, humor styles, and show formats.

02

Give it a topic

Paste a news link, Hacker News article, or just describe what you want the show to cover. The AI researches it deeply.

03

Watch your episode

The system generates a script, produces video clips, and stitches them into a watchable episode — complete with the host's personality.

WHAT RUNS WHEN YOU PRESS GENERATE

Each stage below is a checkpointed step in a durable workflow. If one fails, the run resumes from the last completed step instead of starting over, and every intermediate result is written to Cloud SQL as it lands.

  1. 01

    Capacity preflight

    Mux Video API

    Checks there is somewhere to store the result before anything is generated. A full library stops the run here rather than after the render bill.

    Mux
  2. 02

    Grounded research

    Gemini 3.7 Flash · Google Search grounding

    Reads the topic or fetches the pasted URL, then researches it against live search results and returns cited facts and premise angles.

    Vertex AI
  3. 03

    Three-pass writers' room

    Gemini 3.7 Flash

    Head writer drafts structure and jokes, then a voice pass rewrites in the host's cadence and prunes to the exact runtime.

    Vertex AI
  4. 04

    Multi-speaker synthesis

    Gemini 3.1 Flash TTS

    Infers each host's gender and accent from the show template, then assigns a matching neural voice. Two hosts, one take.

    Vertex AI
  5. 05

    Video generation

    Veo 3.1 · predictLongRunning

    Renders each beat as a clip. The last frame of one becomes the first frame of the next, so the host stays continuous across cuts.

    Vertex AI
  6. 06

    Assembly

    FFmpeg concat demuxer

    Joins clips and aligns audio, falling back to a 48 kHz AAC re-encode when streams do not match.

    FFmpeg
  7. 07

    Publish

    Mux direct upload · HLS

    Uploads the master and returns an adaptive-bitrate playback ID. A failed upload keeps the rendered file, so a retry costs nothing.

    Mux

Throughout · state and memory

Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL 16 · pgvector

Every step checkpoint, transcript, chat message and memory record lands here. Embeddings are stored as 768-dimension vectors with an HNSW cosine index, so retrieval happens in the same query as the show metadata.
