The orchestration and traceability layer for AI film production. Generate anywhere, decide here, ship with traceability.

Welcome to Lazer

Lazer is an orchestration and traceability layer for AI-assisted film production. It does not generate media. Instead, it manages the complete lifecycle of AI-generated assets across multiple platforms.

Generate anywhere, decide here, ship with traceability.

What Lazer Does

Lazer sits between your script and the ecosystem of third-party AI generation tools (Sora, Veo, Midjourney, Freepik, Runway, ElevenLabs, and more). It provides:

  • Structure — Organize productions from Project to Script to Scene to Shot
  • Intent — Create and manage prompt packages that work across platforms
  • Capture — Grab outputs from any generation platform via the Chrome extension
  • Compare — Side-by-side version comparison with metadata overlay
  • Select — Pick winners, track decisions, maintain full version history
  • Trace — Complete provenance and rights tracking for every asset

The Workflow

Draft → Generate Elsewhere → Capture → Compare → Select → Approve → Assemble
  1. Plan your production structure in the web app (projects, scenes, shots)
  2. Create prompt packages with platform-specific adaptations
  3. Generate on any supported AI platform (Sora, Midjourney, etc.)
  4. Capture outputs instantly via the Chrome extension side panel
  5. Compare versions side-by-side in the web app
  6. Select winners and route them through approval
  7. Assemble your timeline from selected assets

Who Is This For?

Lazer is built for:

  • Independent filmmakers using AI tools to produce short films and features
  • Creative studios managing multi-platform AI generation at scale
  • Production teams that need traceability and approval workflows
  • Anyone juggling outputs from multiple AI generation platforms

The web app is the control tower for planning, review, and selection. The Chrome extension is the bridge that captures outputs from generation platforms with minimal friction.
