Awra | Devpost

Inspiration

The idea of Awra was born because one of our team member has to spend 1.5 hours each day editing videos to promote his app on social media, so we thought, why can't we have an AI agent do it for us? With the rise in popularity of the AI agent framework Openclaw, we decided to use it to achieve our content creation assistant

What it does

Awra is capable of doing research on the most viral videos, generating videos, and uploading videos to social media platforms like YouTube and Instagram. A human can talk to the agent via a messaging app, for example, Telegram, and tell it to do whatever they want it to do with natural language.

How we built it

We used Openclaw as our AI agent. We created tools that allow the agent to execute predictable actions like uploading a video. We also created and downloaded skills to provide domain specific knowledge to the agent (e.g., how to use Remotion to generate animations).

Challenges we ran into

We tried to integrate video editing tools and let the agent to emulate every single action of video editing, but we realized that it is still too complicated for an ai agent to do this all by itself.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We have a working MVP that allows users to talk to the AI agent through WhatsApp, and the agent would decide what skills it needs and what tools it would use, ask send the result to the user for approval. After the user approves, it would upload the video to all platforms that the user configured.

What we learned

We learned that Openclaw is extreamly capable of automating repetitive tasks and perform simple reasoning. We can utilize it to completely change how we work, delegating simple tasks to the AI agent and only focus on work that is more meaningful.
