Glöd AI: Video Generation from Product Photos
How we built a stunning marketing video generation platform for the Google Gemini API Hackathon.

Glöd AI: Video Generation from Product Photos
Born from the Google Gemini API Hackathon, Glöd AI is a platform designed to democratize high-end marketing video creation.
The Vision
The goal was simple: upload product photos, descriptions, and dimensions, and get a professional 1-minute marketing video in return.
Technical Architecture
Our team built a robust, full-stack platform in a high-pressure hackathon environment.
Components:
- Core AI: Leveraging the Google Gemini API for content generation and scene planning.
- Backend: FastAPI lead by Yirang Lim, managing model orchestration and state.
- Frontend: React lead by Henry Cho, featuring a polished UI/UX for video customization.
- Fullstack Integration: Seamless synchronization between video generation models and user-facing controls.
Glöd AI proved that with the right orchestration, multimodal models can transform static assets into dynamic, high-impact marketing content.
