AI story engine · unscripted television

Find your Throughline.

The story is already in your footage. Verity finds it — and cuts it — before the schedule and the budget bury it.

Thousands of hours in. One story out.

The problem

The story is buried, not written.

No script tells you where the arc is. Humans hunt for it, linearly, across thousands of hours — the single most expensive, least scalable step in the whole pipeline.

The problem

Post is the bottleneck

For every one-hour episode, your team watches 200+ hours of raw footage — by hand, for weeks. That's where the time and the money disappear.

200+ hoursof footage for every finished hour

The insight

It's a search problem

Editing unscripted is really a search-and-structure problem — find the beats, track each character's arc, and rank every moment by narrative value. That's exactly what modern AI is now good at.

Search, not scrubbingbeats, arcs and moments ranked by value

What it costs

Every season, from zero

The instinct for what makes a scene land lives in a few senior heads, and none of it carries over. Every new season restarts the hunt — and the clock.

Weeksfrom wrap to a first assembly you can watch

Why it matters

The demand exploded. The way it gets made didn't.

Streamers now lean on unscripted for cheap subscriber pull — at record volume. The teams making it are still finding the story frame-by-frame, by hand.

01

Speed to air is the whole game

Commission-to-delivery windows keep shrinking. The team that finds its throughline in days, not weeks, wins the next order.

02

Margin lives in post

Unscripted already runs 40–50% below scripted cost. The remaining fat is the manual search — the least scalable line on the budget.

03

More to make, not more people

Orders keep going up; teams don't. Finding the story faster is how you take on the next show without breaking the ones you're already in.

04

The craft doesn't compound

What lands with audiences is locked in a few senior heads and lost between seasons. Nothing learns. Verity makes the craft a system that does.

What we do

Raw footage in. An editable story out.

Verity sees every frame, finds the beats, tracks each character's arc, and hands your team a cut it can actually start from — with the thinking behind every choice. Your editors stay in control.

Weeks → days to a first assembly

Straight answers

The questions the room actually asks.

No — it augments them. Verity proposes a cut and shows its thinking; your editors reshape it and finish it. The output drops straight into your edit suite, so the team works where they already do.

Your footage is yours. It's isolated per production, and we do not train shared models on your content. Security and data-residency terms are part of every studio agreement.

It's built to feel like your show, because it is your show. Verity works only from what your cameras captured, and your team shapes every beat — it hands you a strong starting point, not a finished cut.

No. Verity sits on top of the workflow you already have and hands you an assembly with the reasoning attached. Start with one show, one season — prove it, then expand.

The Story Room

The reverse-outline cockpit. A season is already shot and tagged — you carve it into 6-act episodes by working backwards from the fixed milestones. The immovable point is the eviction; everything else exists to explain it.

A real, working prototype — drag scenes onto the spine, backwards-chain a milestone, or hit Generate first draft. Open it full screen for a guided walkthrough.

The milestone spine

Fixed points you chain backwards from — the eviction, the comp, the nomination. Everything hangs off the thing that already happened.

Backwards-chaining

Click a milestone and the engine proposes the causal chain of beats — with the reasoning shown. You accept, reorder, or overrule.

Every arc, tracked

Micro, multi-episode and season-long storylines in one view — what's open, what's paid off, and where a setup still needs planting.

Classify

The engine breaks it into ideas — and surfaces the moments.

One answer can hold several ideas. Verity segments the interview by idea, tags who and what each is about, then pulls the viral clips and the cliffhanger hooks automatically.
