Prism API

Prism is a prompt-to-video generation platform. The API lets you programmatically discover video templates, generate videos with custom inputs, and poll for results — so you can build integrations that produce videos at scale.

​
What you can do

Browse Templates

List all available video templates with their categories and input requirements.

Get Template Details

Fetch a single template to inspect its variables and prompt structure.

Generate Video

Submit a generation request with your variable values and receive a video.

Check Status

Poll generation status and download the completed video.

​
How it works

  1. Create an API key in your Prism dashboard.
  2. List templates to discover available video formats and their input variables.
  3. Generate a video by POSTing variable values to a template’s generate endpoint.
  4. Poll for status or provide a webhook_url to receive a callback when the video is ready.
  5. Download the video from the presigned URL in the response.

​
Template structure

Each template defines:
  • Input variables — text, image, or video inputs that customize the generated video.
  • Prompt template — a text template with {{variable_key}} tokens that get replaced with your values.
  • Duration — the target video length in seconds.
  • Category — a grouping like “beauty”, “tech”, “food”, etc.
