Quiz / Guess The Answer
A 20-second vertical (9:16) daily quiz short in game-show blue and gold: the question over a giant question mark, four answer tiles, a visible five-second countdown (numeral disc plus a depleting segment bar), a gold reveal card with the answer, a photo and one supporting fact, then a comment-bait outro. Dynamic fields: quiz_label, category, question, option_a, option_b, option_c, option_d, answer_letter, answer_text, answer_fact, answer_image, channel_handle.

What you can customize
This template exposes 12 dynamic fields you can swap per video - edit them in the editor or pass them to the API to batch-render variations at scale. The monospace name is the exact key to send in replacements.

Render it from the API
Copy either call below. Both already carry this template's ID and its real variable keys - swap the values for your own.
1. Preview it — free
Same body as a render. Costs no credits, creates no job. Returns a public URL that plays the video in a browser, plus a list of problems with your payload — a mistyped key is otherwise ignored in silence.

}'2. Render it
Change one word in the URL. Keep templateId — it is what links your call to this template, so later improvements reach you automatically.

Frequently asked questions
How do I customize the Quiz / Guess The Answer template?
Open the template in the Renderly editor and replace its 12 customizable fields (such as Quiz Label) with your own text, images, or video. Every change previews instantly before you render.
How much does it cost to render this template?
Rendering is credit-based - 1 credit equals 1 minute of 1080p video. You only pay when you export, and credits never expire on the pay-as-you-go plan.
Can I generate this video at scale via the API?
Yes. POST this template's ID and a replacements object to /api/v1/renders - one call per row of data, 12 fields swappable per video. Send the same body to /api/v1/previews first to check it for free. No-code integrations like Zapier work the same way.

Crypto Price Alert
A dark, fast vertical alert card for one crypto asset and one price move, fired when a threshold is crossed: the asset, the percentage move in crypto gold, the timeframe, the price now against where it started, and a call to action. 15 seconds, 9:16 (1080x1920). Dynamic fields: asset_symbol, asset_name, move_pct (sign included), timeframe, price_now, price_from, alert_time, source_name and cta_line. Reads the same for a 3% move or a 40% drop, up or down.

Reddit Story Reader
A screen-native story-reader short for faceless channels: a forum post card with the title and source, then three body pages in grey panels with a page counter and progress bar, and an end card that sets up the next part. 53 seconds, 9:16 (1080x1920). Dynamic fields: post_title, source_label, page_1, page_2, page_3 (up to about 380 characters each), part_label, outro_line and channel_handle. Longer stories render as several parts.

Motivational Quote Reel
The moving sibling of the Daily Quote card: one quote over slow, graded footage with an optional AI-narrated read. 23 seconds, 9:16 at 1080x1920, five scenes - a title card, the quote, the attribution, a near-black quote card built to be screenshotted, and a follow outro - in near-black, warm white and a single warm-amber accent, set in Cormorant Garamond with JetBrains Mono furniture. Dynamic fields: series_label, date_label, the_line, attribution, handle (text), background_clip (video) and narration (sound, filled per render with a text-to-speech value). It uses the same field names as the Daily Social Card - Quote, so one row a day renders both the square card and the vertical reel.
