Colossyan API: Scale video creation and personalization
We're excited to announce that creators on Business plans now get 360 minutes of the
Colossyan API
, which can be used to automate video creation. With the Colossyan API, you can:
๐ฝ๏ธ Automatically generate hundreds of videos from one video template
โ๏ธ Use personalization tokens such as {Name}, {Feedback} and more
๐ผ๏ธ Include any content from your Colossyan draft, from custom avatars to media
How to get started with the API:

To get your API key, go to
Settings -> Workspace details -> Workspace API keys.

Create your video template, and click on
Generate
. You will see the Export to API
button. Save your job as a template
, and copy to clipboard. To see the full API guide, please use our documentation: https://docs.colossyan.com/

You can now easily
move your drafts
between different workspaces. 
Easily move drafts between workspaces
Do you prefer to create videos in your own workspace, and then move them to your team's? Or perhaps, you work in multiple workspaces, and need to move drafts around? Either way, this is now possible
with draft moving!
How does it work?
๐ฌ To move your draft,
click on the "..." button
and select "Move to workspace"
๐ค You can only
move the drafts you've created
โ not other people's drafts ๐ฅ If you want to
duplicate the draft
, or need someone else's draft โ simply duplicate it in the workspace you're in, and then move the duplicated version
Draft moving currently works for everything in the draft,
except for Instant Avatars and custom fonts.
Best practices for draft moving
- This feature is useful if you prefer to work on your draft first, and then share itwith the rest of your team. Use your personal workspace to create the draft,and move it when you're ready.
- If you prefer to keep the original version in your workspace, duplicate the draft, and then move it.
- You can also create a "Templates" workspacefor all of your teams to use, and keep your existing video layouts there.Your teammates will be able to duplicate the needed templates& move them to their workspaces.

Important notes:
- You can only move the draft if you're the one who created it.If you need to move someone else's draft, simply duplicate it first.
- The draft can be moved to workspaces where you have an owner, an admin, or an editor roleโ not a viewer role.
- This feature doesn't currently support moving Instant Avatars and uploaded fonts:The avatar will be replaced to a default one when the draft is opened after moving, and the same goes for custom fonts.
P.S. This feature is available on all plans!

Background music now works for the
full duration of interactive videos.

Background music for interactive videos
Before, background music would stop during scenes with quizzes and branching, and only play in non-interactive scenes. We changed this, so now all interactive scenes support music, and you can have your
background audio playing throughout the whole video, with no interruptions โ even if it has branching and quizzes.
With this update, you can:
๐ Include
background music
in branching scenarios and quizzes๐ฃ๏ธ Make your interactive videos
more immersive with audio
๐ถ Add relevant
sound effects
to your interactive scenes We hope that this update will help you create even more engaging interactive videos!

๐ชฒ What's Improved & Fixed: Bug Hunt Q1 2025

๐ชฒ First bug hunt of the year
Welcome back to Colossyan! As everyone settles in after the winter holidays, our team has already kicked off the year with our first bug hunt. This week, weโve focused on fixing issues and making small improvements to ensure a smoother experience for you as we kick off the year together. Hereโs what weโve addressed:

- Made animation markers more precisefor improved timing and accuracy.
- Fixed issues that prevented users from adjusting pitch and speed on voices.
- Resolved workspace invitation issues:You can now remove team members before sending an invitation, and duplicate invitations to the same email address are no longer allowed.
...and many more small fixes and improvements that make Colossyan faster, better and more intuitive.

"Apply to all scenes"
will now work on all narration boxes. 
Bug fix: "Apply to all scenes"
We've been getting a few reports that
"Apply to all scenes"
didn't work properly for voices, and some narration blocks were left with the old voices. With this fix, any time creators choose to apply a new voice to
"All scenes"
, the voice will be replaced in all the scenes and narration blocks with that avatar or voice.
Note:
This may not apply if the language code or gender are different (in case of narration without an avatar). Thank you for your patience, and don't hesitate to reach out to our team if you spot any other bugs โ we'll be quick to resolve them! ๐ ๏ธ
