Screel in ChatGPT

The Screel app for ChatGPT lets ChatGPT act as your scriptwriter and producer: it breaks your idea into scenes, generates the visuals, and renders the finished video — while you watch progress in live cards inside the chat.

  1. Add the Screel app in ChatGPT (or enable it from Settings → Apps & Connectors).
  2. When you first use it, ChatGPT shows a Connect card. Click it to open the Screel sign-in window.
  3. Sign in — or create a Screel account right there if you don’t have one yet.
  4. Approve the requested access and you’re returned to ChatGPT. The link stays active until you disconnect it.

Screel asks for two permissions:

  • View your projects and videos (screel.read)
  • Create content on your behalf (screel.generate) — creating projects and scenes, generating images/clips/audio, and rendering. Generation spends credits from your Screel account.

A typical request — “Make a 30-second video about deep-sea creatures” — runs the full pipeline:

  1. Create a project and add the whole scene script in one step.
  2. Generate an image for every scene.
  3. Optionally animate scenes into moving clips, and add voiceover and music. Scenes without a clip render as stills, so a stills-only video is a perfectly valid (and cheaper) result.
  4. Render the project and get a playable video right in the chat.

Along the way you’ll see:

  • a storyboard widget with every scene, its image and audio, and live progress;
  • job cards that track each generation with a preview when it finishes;
  • a video player for the finished render, backed by a permanent link.

Images from the conversation can go straight into scenes at no credit cost: drop a photo into the chat (or have ChatGPT generate one) and ask for it to be used in a scene. Screel attaches it as that scene’s still.

Every generating action (images, clips, voiceover, music, renders, upscales) spends credits from your Screel account; ChatGPT can check your balance and quote per-action costs before spending. Long jobs run in the background — you can keep talking, ask for status, or cancel a queued job at any time.

  • “Create a 5-scene product teaser for my coffee brand, vertical format.”
  • “Generate images for all scenes, then show me the storyboard.”
  • “Animate scenes 1 and 5, add an energetic voiceover, and render it.”
  • “Use the photo I just uploaded as the image for scene 2.”

Remove the app from ChatGPT’s Apps & Connectors settings at any time; this revokes its access to your Screel account. Your projects and videos stay in your account and remain available at screel.ai.
