We're live on Product Hunt director-grade AI video studio (feedback welcome)

We're scheduling our Product Hunt launch for Pixlie an AI video studio: text/image to video, cloud queue, shared library, web + iOS.

Solo founder, live product (not waitlist). Before we go live I'd love input from this community:

1) What would make you actually use an AI video tool weekly?

2) Must-have vs nice-to-have: control knobs, templates, batch export?
