Studio Foxace
An AI-native studio making French educational videos
One person, one home server, and a team of Claude agents that write, check, voice, edit and publish videos for eight YouTube channels.
The channels
- Minute ChatWhy cats do what they do
- Minute NatureAnimals and the living world
- Crayon d'HierHow our ancestors lived, in ink drawings
- Mammouth MentalEveryday psychology, explained
- La Boîte à PourquoiBig questions for curious children
- Minute SportWhere our sports come from
- Déjà VuHistory that repeats itself
- Og & BoulouA wordless prehistoric cartoon
Short videos for YouTube Shorts, Instagram and TikTok, long-form episodes of ten minutes or more, and two-hour documentaries to fall asleep to.
How a video is made
- A Claude agent picks a topic people are actually searching for, then writes the script.
- Independent reviewer agents check the facts, the storytelling, the rules of the channel and how it sounds out loud. Nothing is voiced before every reviewer scores it 7/10 or more.
- Agents plan the images paragraph by paragraph, generate them, and check each one (anatomy, stray text, consistency).
- The voice is synthesised, then a transcription check compares what is heard with what was written.
- Agents edit the video in 4K, add motion graphics and chapters, set the sound to −14 LUFS, and prepare the thumbnail.
- The founder validates each video on a private dashboard. Only then is it scheduled.
Built with Claude
Claude is the studio's workforce. Claude Opus handles code, diagnosis and hard decisions; Claude Sonnet and Haiku produce scripts, tools and reviews; a chief-of-staff agent turns each request into tickets and routes them. The agents write the studio's own software too: the production pipeline, the quality guards and the dashboard, delivered through pull requests that pass automated tests before they merge.
Where we are
The studio is at its very beginning: most channels are only weeks old, none is monetised yet, and everything runs on a single small home server and the founder's own PC. Every recurring cost is watched closely, because the budget is tiny.
