Introducing Capsule Variants: one template, on-brand video at scale
When HubSpot's paid media team needed to go from dozens of video assets per campaign to thousands—across platforms, audiences, and languages—they didn't hire more editors. They used Capsule Variants to build 1,800 on-brand videos at scale from a single motion template, cutting production time from weeks to days.
That capability is now available for every team.
Variants is Capsule's new feature for video automation. Build a template once, define your variables, and batch-create hundreds or thousands of on-brand video variations—automatically, in minutes.
How Capsule Variants works
Start by building a template in Capsule's motion design system—the same brand-locked system your creative team already uses. Then define your variables: the text, imagery, offers, languages, and other elements that change version to version.
From there, you have two paths:
- Connect your data. Plug in a spreadsheet, CRM, or data warehouse, and Variants batch-creates every combination automatically. One template becomes hundreds of localized ads, thousands of personalized customer videos, or 1,800 campaign assets—all rendered in the cloud in minutes.
- Publish a form. Turn your template into a simple input form, and anyone in your org—sales rep, regional marketer, CS manager—can generate a polished, on-brand video on the spot. No editing experience required, no design review.
Built for high-volume video workflows
Video automation for performance marketing
Pick your variables—offers, headlines, CTAs, languages, aspect ratios—and generate ready-to-run ads for every audience and channel. The same team can run more tests, reach more markets, and run more learning cycles without the production work multiplying alongside them.
Personalized video campaigns
Connect your CRM or data warehouse and turn data rows into video. Names, products, usage stats, locations, offers—Variants generates thousands of branded, personalized clips so every customer sees something that feels made for them, not for the crowd. Perfect for “Spotify-wrapped” campaigns or ABM plays.
Sales follow-up videos
Give reps a simple form. They fill it in; Variants returns a polished, on-brand video tailored to the account or next step. The result looks like the creative team made it just for that prospect—without the creative team lifting a finger.
There's consensus: video works. Sales reps just don't do it because it's too hard—this changes that equation.

What marketers are saying about Capsule Variants
That's exactly what we try to do in After Effects—it's just terribly slow.
—Scott Fleming, Creative Director at Accenture
This is a big deal. This lets basically any SaaS company make its own Spotify Wrapped.
—Andy Orsow, Video Marketer at Framer
If we were running ABM campaigns off of this, we could make approximately a bajillion videos.
