Generative AI in production: it is for the boring part, not the hard part

AI is not going to shoot your campaign. It can take away the blank brief, the tagging of your footage and the fifteen variants of one piece.

KAMI AI included in the plan, with no separate AI subscription.

Updated: September 2026

Who this page is for

This page explains where AI helps in a video production flow today, without overstating it. In Play there are two real uses: KAMI AI, which structures briefs, organises projects and tags material automatically; and hybrid AI production in post, which is for scaling variants of a piece that is already edited. What there is not is video generated from a text prompt, and this page is not going to promise it. AI is not a business line at Play: it is a layer inside the flow.

Where time gets lost that AI genuinely can recover

Four repetitive tasks that take hours and that nobody misses once they stop being done by hand.

The blank brief

Every project starts with somebody staring at an empty document trying to remember which fields were needed. Half the schedule slippage is born in an incomplete brief.

KAMI AI turns a loose request into a structured brief with formats, markets and dates.

Tagging the material by hand

Nobody does it, which is why nobody finds anything six months later. Something that already existed on a drive gets filmed again.

Automatic video tagging, to search by what it shows rather than by the file name.

The fifteen variants of one piece

Durations, languages, vertical formats and per-channel cuts. It is mechanical work and it eats most of the post-production budget.

Hybrid AI production to scale variants from the same edit.

Keeping a growing project in order

Once twenty pieces and ten collaborators are involved, keeping order becomes a job in itself that nobody has been assigned.

KAMI AI organises the project and proposes the next steps.

How AI enters Play's flow

Play is a Production-Tech company: software and a production team in the same house. AI is a layer inside that flow, not a separate product and not an extra subscription.

Way 1

Platform only

You use KAMI AI inside your own flow: a structured brief, an organised project and tagged material, included in the plan.

  • Briefs, tasks and a production calendar
  • Media library with AI tagging
  • Videofeedback and approvals by version
  • Unlimited external collaborators

Free on the LITE plan

See Play Platform
Way 2

Production only, as and when you need it

You commission the production and we apply hybrid AI production where it genuinely saves, above all when scaling variants.

  • End-to-end production with an Account Manager
  • Creative, shooting and post-production
  • Local talent in whichever market it takes
  • A fixed quote per project

Per project, on a transparent rate card

See PLAY /Services
Way 3

Everything together, one partner

The platform organises and our team produces, with AI doing the mechanical part on both halves.

  • Everything in way 1 and way 2
  • Platform included at no cost with the services
  • Cost and status traceable in the same place
  • A flat production discount on the Enterprise plan

Platform included, production per project

Talk to the team

The three ways are doors into the same place, and you can move between them without migrating anything. Most teams start at way 1 or way 2 and end up at way 3 once the content volume grows.

What AI does in production today, and what it does not

It is worth being specific, because a great deal gets promised in this area. This table also says what Play does not do.

What you get from each part

What exists today, with no promises about what might.

KAMI AI

The production assistant: it structures briefs, organises material and automates the repetitive parts. Included in the plan, with no separate AI subscription.

Automatic video tagging

From the PRO plan. The material becomes searchable by what it shows, which is what lets you reuse rather than reshoot.

Structured briefing

Objective, formats, markets and dates settled before starting, which is where half the slippage is born.

Project organisation

Once many pieces and many collaborators are involved, order stops depending on somebody maintaining it by hand.

No additional cost

There is no separate per-user AI plan. What exists is inside the workspace price.

Your data, in the EU

The material is hosted on EU servers, encrypted in transit and at rest, with the GDPR and a signed DPA.

Hybrid AI production

Applied where it genuinely saves: scaling variants of a piece already edited, across languages, durations and per-channel formats.

Human judgement in the decisions

Creative direction, the script and the relationship with the brand are not automated, and we do not pretend otherwise.

AI artists in the network

PLAY Talent includes specialist profiles, within a network of more than 1,200 vetted professionals.

A transparent rate card

If AI makes part of the process cheaper, it shows in the quote rather than staying as margin.

Brief to publication in four steps

The flow is the same whether you produce or we do. The only thing that changes is who carries out step 3.

  1. You say what you need

    You open the project and describe the need. KAMI AI helps turn it into a structured brief, with formats, markets and dates, so that everyone is working from the same thing.

  2. You settle scope, cost and who does it

    This is where you pick a way: your team produces it, your agency does, or PLAY /Services does with local talent. If you commission it from us, you get a fixed quote on a transparent rate card before anything starts.

  3. It gets produced and approved inside the platform

    Shoot, edit and versions in the same project. Approvals happen through videofeedback and public links, with no email chains. If PLAY produces, your Account Manager oversees every stage.

  4. It is delivered, and it stays

    The finished piece and the raw footage stay in your library, tagged and ready to reuse on the next campaign.

If you produce with us, the platform costs you nothing

Access to Play Platform is included at no cost with every PLAY video production service. In other words: you can come in through the platform door and pay only for the software, or come in through the production door and take the software with it.

Annual billing works out at 10 months. Extra storage at 29 €/TB per month. The practical difference between LITE and PRO in this area is the automatic video tagging, which is the AI feature that gives back the most time, because it turns the archive into something searchable. See the full plan comparison.

Frequently asked questions about generative AI in video production

Does Play generate video from a text prompt?

No. It is the sector's most repeated promise and today it works in few real professional production cases. What Play does with AI is structure briefs, organise projects, tag material and scale variants of a piece that is already edited.

What is KAMI AI?

Play's production assistant: it turns a request into a structured brief, organises the project, orders the material and automates the repetitive parts. Included in the plan, with no additional AI subscription.

Do I have to pay for a separate AI plan?

No. Unlike other tools on the market, which sell AI as an additional per-user plan, at Play what exists is inside the workspace price.

What is hybrid AI production?

Applying AI in post-production where it genuinely saves: producing languages, durations and per-channel formats from the same edit. It does not replace the edit, it multiplies what is already edited.

Does AI replace creative direction?

No, and it is not on the roadmap. The idea, the judgement and the relationship with the brand remain human work. AI takes the mechanical part of the process.

What happens to my data?

The material is hosted on EU servers, encrypted in transit with TLS 1.2 or higher and at rest with AES-256, with role-based permissions, an activity log, the GDPR and a signed DPA.
