Why Custom AI Video Pipelines Matter
From Static Workflows to Liquid Content
by Seán (27.05.2025)
In a world of ever-faster content demands, companies need scalable, adaptive, and branded video workflows. Here’s why Ontoworks builds custom AI video pipelines—and what “liquid content” really means.
You know the feeling: your team’s marketing campaign is ready, the copy’s finalized, maybe the audio’s been recorded—and now you’re stuck waiting for video production to catch up. It’s a bottleneck more and more companies are running into. Either because video isn’t automated yet, or because generic automation doesn’t reflect your brand, your narrative structure, or your data workflows.This is the gap we’ve been working to close at Ontoworks: building not just a product, but custom AI video pipelines for companies who need content that’s fast, fluid, and on-brand—at scale.
What We Talk About When We Talk About "Liquid Content"
There’s a term that’s been floating around in marketing circles: liquid content.
It doesn’t mean “viral,” or even “fast” in the TikTok sense. Liquid content refers to modular, adaptive media that can flow across channels, reassemble itself around different contexts, and stay consistent while moving fast. Think of it like a brand language that can speak fluently across platforms—without needing to be rewritten or re-edited for every post or campaign. But to achieve that, especially with video, you need infrastructure. Not just tools. Not just templates. Something deeper.
Why Static Workflows Break at Scale
If you’ve ever tried to automate video production across 100, 1,000, or 10,000 content pieces—be it songs, product launches, or social ads—you’ll know the tools break down quickly.
They’re either:
– too rigid (template-based generators with no personality)
– too manual (requiring video editors or designers to supervise every piece)
– or too unpredictable (prompt-based tools that generate wildly different results every time)
It’s not enough to generate video. You need to shape it, control it, integrate it—and you need to do it without losing weeks or budgets on each iteration.
What We’re Building (and Why Companies Ask for It)
That’s where custom pipelines come in.
When we first launched Ontoworks, we focused on artists and creators. But very quickly, B2B partners began asking: “Can we use this, but tuned for our content?”
Now we work with TV channels, marketers, and media platforms to build video workflows that:
– respond to internal data (e.g., metadata, mood, lyrics, tags)
– align with brand visuals and tone
– and output consistent, editable video formats without anyone touching an editor
They’re integrated systems that unlock real creative velocity.
A New Kind of Collaboration Between AI and Brand
The future isn’t just AI that generates. It’s AI that integrates—into how you work, how you publish, and how your content feels to your audience. That’s the real promise of liquid content: not just speed, but adaptive creativity at scale, in a way that feels like you. And if that sounds like something your team has been trying to duct-tape together with freelance editors, Google Docs, and scattered assets—we get it. We were there too. That’s why we started building pipelines.
