Telegram UGC Video Generator with n8n + OpenAI, Perplexity & Kie.ai

Turn Telegram product ideas into a ready-to-use UGC video—automatically

This n8n workflow lets a Telegram user submit a product brief and photo, then uses OpenAI + Perplexity to plan the video and Kie.ai to render a multi-shot storyboard video—returning the final MP4 and a clickable link back in Telegram.

What this workflow does

• Collects inputs via Telegram: the workflow triggers when a Telegram user sends a message and fills a form for brand details, product info, product photo, video length, scene count, orientation, concept prompt, and spoken language.
• Uploads the product photo to imgbb: it sends the image to imgbb to obtain a public image URL, then posts a confirmation summary back to the user on Telegram.
• Analyzes and researches with AI: OpenAI (GPT-4o vision) describes the product from the photo, while Perplexity researches the product and target audience.
• Generates a Sora-style storyboard: OpenAI (GPT-5.1) creates per-shot English text-to-video prompts (with durations) plus a separate first-frame text-to-image prompt, then normalizes/cleans the results.
• Renders visuals with Kie.ai: it submits the first-frame prompt and the product image URL to Kie.ai Nano Banana Pro to generate an opening image (polling until success or error).
• Creates the final video with Kie.ai: it builds a Kie.ai Sora 2 Pro Storyboard payload using the opening image, aspect ratio, total duration, and shot list, then renders and polls until the MP4 completes.
• Delivers results in Telegram: downloads the resulting MP4 from Kie.ai and sends both the video file and a clickable video link back to the user.

Use cases

• UGC-style ad creators who want fast, repeatable video variants from a single product photo.
• SaaS operators building an “idea-to-video” intake flow for their users via Telegram.
• Automation engineers testing an end-to-end n8n pipeline combining OpenAI, Perplexity, and Kie.ai.
