# Video Agent

> Reference-driven episodic video with character memory and stitched exports

**Video Agent** builds multi-segment videos. You give it a brief and references; it generates the segments, keeps your characters consistent across them, and stitches the result into one episode.

## What makes it different

|             | Generate         | Video Agent                          |
| ----------- | ---------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| Output      | One clip per run | A multi-segment episode              |
| Consistency | You manage it    | **Character memory** across segments |
| Assembly    | You do it        | Stitched export                      |
| Best for    | A single shot    | A sequence that has to hang together |

## Core ideas

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card icon="user" title="Character memory">
    Characters persist across segments so a face or costume doesn't drift shot to shot — the hardest problem in multi-shot AI video.
  </Card>

  <Card icon="image" title="Reference-driven">
    References steer look and subject rather than relying on prompt wording alone.
  </Card>

  <Card icon="film" title="Segment generation">
    Each segment generates independently, so you can regenerate one without redoing the episode.
  </Card>

  <Card icon="link" title="Stitched export">
    Approved segments assemble into a single video.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Working in it

<Steps>
  <Step title="Start a project">
    Projects are saved and resumable — episodic work spans sessions.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Establish references and characters">
    Set these before generating in bulk. Consistency comes from the references, so getting them right first saves the most credits.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate segment by segment">
    Review each one. Regenerate the weak ones individually rather than restarting.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Export the episode">
    Stitch the approved segments into the finished video.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Credits

Every segment is a video generation and costs accordingly — an episode is the sum of its segments. Regenerating one segment costs one segment.

<Warning>
  Video is the most expensive thing in Pixio. Get your references and first segment right before generating the rest, or you'll pay for a full episode twice.
</Warning>

## Where it fits

* **[Cinema Studio](/create/cinema-studio)** — plan shots as a storyboard before generating
* **[Video Editor](/video-editor)** — a real timeline for precise trimming, captions, and layered edits
* **[Generate](/generate)** — single clips with full control

<Info>
  Autonomous orchestration and final assembly aren't available through the API — Video Agent projects can be persisted programmatically, but the end-to-end run happens in the app. See [what you can automate](/integrations/what-you-can-automate).
