Alright, so here’s what happened:

I saw a UGC video that was so clean I genuinely didn’t believe it was AI.
Naturally, I went down the rabbit hole to figure out how people were doing this.

Every post I found was the same:

• “Here’s a guide…” → paywalled
• “Just sign up for this tool…” → affiliate link
• “Buy this course…” → lol no

Nobody was actually sharing the automation behind it — just breadcrumbs.

So I said screw it.

I spent the last few hours researching, testing tools, breaking stuff, fixing it, and finally building a fully automated AI-UGC pipeline that actually works.
No paid course. No upsells. No BS.

Since Reddit helped me get started (even if indirectly), I’m giving the whole thing away 100% free:

What I’m sharing:

• The full step-by-step automation flow
• All tools used (free/cheap alternatives included)
• Prompts, templates, and workflows
• How to generate realistic UGC without touching a camera
• Optional upgrades if you want studio-level outputs
• A plug-and-play automation setup you can duplicate

Who this helps:

• UGC creators
• Agencies
• Freelancers
• Indie founders
• Anyone trying to make content without filming themselves

Why I’m posting it:

Because the info shouldn’t be hidden behind a $297 “AI UGC Masterclass.”
If something can be automated, the internet deserves to know.

Step-by-step workflow

1. Trigger — Schedule kicks off the workflow. (1s)
2. Pull sheet rows — Fetch only “Pending”. (1s)
3. Generate UGC image prompt — OpenRouter agent. (2–5s)
4. Create image — Gemini Flash with product photo. (3–6s)
5. Convert + upload — Encode and upload to ImgBB. (2–3s)
6. Analyze — OpenAI Vision returns a detailed breakdown. (1–2s)
7. Generate video prompt — Second agent builds Veo-ready script. (2–4s)
8. Send to Kie.AI Veo — Video job created. (1s)
9. Wait + poll — Loop until video is ready. (30–120s)
10. Update sheet — Insert final UGC video link. (1s)

Implementation notes

• Tech: n8n, Google Sheets API, OpenRouter, OpenAI, ImgBB, Kie.AI
• Use environment variables for API keys.
