This workflow automates the full pipeline. It converts any Reddit thread into a polished video with: - TTS narration - Subtitle overlays - B-roll from Pexels - Automatic rendering via Shotstack

What this workflow does

This workflow: 1. Extracts Reddit post and comments via Reddit API 2. Summarizes the thread into structured clips using OpenAI 3. Generates search queries for each clip for stock footage 4. Queries Pexels API for relevant vertical videos 5. Generates TTS audio for each clip using OpenAI Whisper 6. Creates subtitles matching the audio 7. Uploads footage/audio to Shotstack 8. Renders a full vertical video (720x1280) with synced TTS, subtitles, and b-roll 9. Returns a final video URL
