AlertForge generates AI-powered transparent stream alerts (WebM with alpha channel) and full animated overlay packs from a single text prompt. The Veo 3.1 family (Lite / Fast / Veo 3.1) renders the alerts, GPT-Image-2 paints overlay scenes, and Kling Video v3 Pro animates them on Max + Ultra tiers. BiRefNet v2 handles transparent cam-frame extraction. No After Effects, no rotoscoping, no green screen.

## Markdown Mirrors for AI Agents

Key pages are also served as plain Markdown — append `.md` to the URL (e.g. https://alertforge.ai/pricing.md, https://alertforge.ai/docs/agents.md, https://alertforge.ai/blog/alertforge-obs-setup.md, https://alertforge.ai/vs/streamlabs.md). Available for /pricing, /viewer-alerts, /animated-overlay, /about, /docs/agents, every /blog/<slug>, and every /vs/<slug>. All mirrors are listed in https://alertforge.ai/sitemap.xml.

## AlertForge for Agents

Beyond reading these mirrors, an agent can act on a user's own AlertForge account over MCP: plan, create, monitor, and export animated overlay packs, AI Alerts (a single alert or a whole set, built around a character), and standalone transparent videos. Endpoint: https://alertforge.ai/api/mcp (Streamable HTTP). Three read-only tools (get_product_info, get_pricing, get_faq) need no auth; the account tools need an API key minted at https://alertforge.ai/dashboard/agents, sent as `Authorization: Bearer <key>` — discover what's creatable and what it costs with tools like list_scene_kinds and list_alert_types rather than assuming. Full tool reference and setup snippets for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and Cursor: https://alertforge.ai/docs/agents.

## Render economics

- With audio on: Standard 26, Premium 36, Explosive 48
- Animated Overlay Packs bill per element: a complete pack lands around 280 credits with still scenes plus alerts and a stinger, and roughly 450 with every scene character-animated
- Generation time: 60–180 seconds per alert; ~3–10 minutes for a full overlay pack
