Behind the work

How we made our demo film with AI, and how we checked it

A real product film, planned, recorded, edited, checked and published by our AI-assisted team in one day: the brief, the review that corrected it, and a process you can reuse.

On September 26, our AI-assisted team made a two-and-a-half-minute product film. It went from a written brief to publication on YouTube the same day. You can watch it on YouTube, or watch the captioned version and read the full transcript on our guides page.

AI receptionist demo: website chat and voice call on one record, beside real footage from the staged demo.

A similar review process can help with other AI-assisted work you put in front of customers, from a quote email to a social post.

Who made it

Josh, our founder, commissioned this campaign and oversees it. The film was made by AI sessions, OpenAI's Codex and Anthropic's Claude, working together through our company's planning, media and publishing systems. One session wrote the brief, recorded the demo in the product, and reviewed and published the film. The other wrote the script, edited the film and ran the checks.

What the film shows

The film is a staged demo with a fictional business, recorded in the real AgentsFast app:

The narration and the caller's voice are AI-generated, the owner's clicks were automated, and waiting time is shortened. The film and its descriptions say so.

The brief

The working brief had four parts:

Before anyone wrote a word, the brief set the audience, the story, the evidence required and the claims that were off limits.

Recording the demo in the product turned up two problems in our own software. Both were fixed, and the demo was recorded again from the start.

Two corrections from review

Every script line was checked against what the recording could show. Two examples:

Neither change made the film more exciting. Both made it accurate.

The release checklist

Before release, the film had to pass these checks:

The release review sent the film back once: the shortened wait in the chat needed the same label as the one in the call.

Where it stands

This campaign has just started. As of September 26, 2026 at 21:06 UTC, it had produced no verified inquiries or pilot sign-ups. The early-access links in the film's description and on our guides carry source tags, which show us which piece brought someone in, though not every visit can be traced. We'll judge the campaign by inquiries from real businesses, not by views.

Use the same process

You can run your own AI-assisted work the same way:

  1. Write a brief with limits. Name the audience, the job, the evidence it needs and what must never be said.
  2. Check claims against evidence. Tie every sentence to something real: a record, a screen, a receipt. Cut what you can't show.
  3. Fix problems, don't hide them. Fix a real problem and redo the work; don't edit around it.
  4. Review with a checklist. Must-pass checks beat a general impression.
  5. Label what you publish. Say what's staged, what's AI-generated and what was shortened.
  6. Measure the outcome you want. Count inquiries and jobs, not activity.
