Monks.Render.

Built so motion designers can ship hundreds of variants from a single After Effects template — driven by a spreadsheet, not by hand.

For the artist. Drop the Monks.Render effect on any dynamic layer; the plugin handles the swap — text, image, video, composition, or shape. Connect a data source (Google Sheets, AirTable, Asset Planner, or JSON), flip through rows in the panel to preview, then render the current row, a range, or all of them in a click. Override copy, colour, opacity, position, scale, trim points, EGP controls, and effect parameters straight from a column header — the whole creative surface is sheet-driven. Toolkit Mode can emit per-row .aep projects instead of video when an editor wants to finesse downstream.

For the team running it at scale. Agent Mode flips the plugin into an unattended worker — it polls a data source, claims pending rows, renders, uploads to GCS or S3, and writes status back. Memory purging, auto-reload, and crash recovery let it run 24/7 on cloud VMs; multiple machines can claim from the same sheet without colliding.

It’s the platform-agnostic philosophy in practice: ship the agent inside the tool the artist already runs, integrate with the data sources the studio already uses, and disappear into the workflow.
