## How it works

1. Connect: link GitHub, your changelog and your website URL.
2. Ship as usual: release.show detects new releases, merged PRs, commits and
   changes on your website.
3. Premiere: a branded video renders, ready for X, LinkedIn, YouTube, your
   changelog or your customers. Every project also gets a public channel at
   release.show/<project>.

## Features

- Videos from your commits: GitHub releases, PRs and commits become scenes,
  cut and timed automatically.
- Website change detection: before and after screen captures of what changed
  on your site.
- Brand kit: your logo, colors and fonts on every video.
- Every format: 16:9, 1:1 and 9:16 vertical from one render.
- Script, voice and avatar: an AI script, optional voiceover or an AI avatar
  presenter (HeyGen), and captions you can edit.
- Weekly recaps: a "This week we shipped" episode, every Friday.
- Channels and embeds: a public channel page per project, plus an embed for
  your changelog (one script tag).
