A technology company building simple AI tools for independent filmmakers. Designed for quality. Shipped on LLM and API workflows. Films are the proof.

The company

AIVID

Autonomous Intelligent Video Infrastructure and Deployment. AIVID is the infrastructure layer for AI-native film production, built for independent filmmakers. It treats a screenplay as the program input and a finished cut as the program output. Between those endpoints every step is reproducible, versioned, and inspectable. The platform wraps frontier video models in a workflow that holds character continuity, manages assets, and emits a timeline that drops directly into an editor.

The product

AI AVA

Autonomous Video Assistant. AI AVA is the orchestration engine inside AIVID, designed to make cinematic AI simple to use. It reads the full screenplay in long context, locks every speaking character to a deterministic identity anchor, routes each shot to the optimal generative model, validates output against continuity contracts, and assembles a markered, binned timeline ready for DaVinci Resolve. The filmmaker sees one tool. Under the hood, AI AVA is calling eight.

02 PIPELINE

The pipeline is the product.

Eight production tools, one orchestration layer. The filmmaker calls one tool. AIVID calls eight, routes each shot to the optimal model, and validates output against the platform's continuity contract before the next stage begins.

Proof of platform.

Five original features in production on the platform. Each one stresses the pipeline differently: historical scale, comedy timing, horror creature work, legal procedural density, biographical drama. Proof an independent filmmaker can ship across that full range.

04 FOUNDER

The founder.

AIVID is built by a product leader who became a filmmaker. Twenty-five years leading product across mobile, telecommunications, and consumer technology, with one consistent obsession: shipping things people actually want to use. Now turned toward the story that has always mattered most to him: cinema.

David Vognild, founder of AIVID
Founder David Vognild

David Vognild has spent twenty-five years in technology, leading product development across mobile, telecommunications, and consumer devices. He has launched at every tier of the market, from flagship to entry-level, from IoT and wearables to connected infrastructure. The principle has never moved. Listen to the customer. Hold the quality bar. Build the product that earns its place.

AIVID is built on a simple belief. The barrier to making a feature film should be the idea, not the budget. Great stories have always lived in the imaginations of people who could never afford to make them. AIVID is the platform built to change that.

"I built AIVID so the next great independent film gets made by the person with the story, not the person with the studio."

05 WHY THIS MATTERS

Every independent filmmaker hits the same wall. They can't make the films without the tools. They can't afford the tools without making the films. AIVID is the platform built to break that loop.

I'm asking for the access first, so I can prove it works for me, then deliver that same access to every filmmaker behind me. Google has the tools. Indie filmmakers have the stories. AIVID is the platform that connects them. That's the partnership I want to build.
