FFmpeg workflow automation toolkit

Package common FFmpeg pipelines as reusable CLI tools. For video editors and content creators.

Why now

FFmpeg's power is undisputed but its complexity limits adoption; simpler abstractions are needed.

Who for
Video content creators
Business model
Pro template packs
Effort
A weekend

Video professionals waste time rebuilding the same FFmpeg commands. Create a collection of pre-built scripts for common tasks (format conversion, compression, etc) with simple flags.

Offer both open source core and paid pro templates. Target indie creators and small studios.

MVP could be 10 essential scripts with good docs. Biggest risk is competition from GUI tools.
