Property marketing · AI production studio

Upload your space. Ship scroll-stopping content.

Zently turns your interior photos, host persona, and brand ingredients into platform-ready posts and short-form video — scripted, framed, and animated by an orchestrated Google AI pipeline. Built for hosts and landlords who need discovery, not another property-management dashboard.

Not an agency, not a generic chatbot. An end-to-end studio: screenplay, photoreal first frames, and cinematic motion — grounded in what you actually rent.

From rental living to rental reach

Zently began in property — simplifying how renters and landlords live together. Today we solve the harder problem: getting the right eyes on your listing.

In 2017 we launched as a prop-tech company in the San Francisco Bay Area: rent payments, roommate expense splits, maintenance requests with photo proof, and landlord tools to fill units faster. We learned every friction point between a guest and a key.

Listings alone do not create demand. Algorithms reward motion, personality, and native short-form video. Hosts who post consistently win discovery; hosts who rely on stock photos blend into the feed.

Our pivot is deliberate: keep the rental domain expertise, ship a content engine that turns your real spaces into viral-ready stories — without a film crew on every turnover.

The landlord content trap

Vacancy is expensive. Invisibility is worse. Most hosts are caught between empty calendars and empty content calendars.

Vacancy bleed

Every unfilled week costs more than a modest discount. When your listing sits in the middle of identical galleries, you compete on price alone. Organic reach is the cheapest top-of-funnel — but only if you show up in feeds where renters and guests actually scroll.

The content treadmill

Reels, TikTok, and Shorts demand cadence. Shooting weekly B-roll across multiple units is a second job. Most hosts do not have a studio, a videographer, or four hours after every clean-turn to edit.

Stock-photo sameness

Wide-angle stills from the same angles read as interchangeable. Platforms surface native, human, in-space video. Static grids do not build trust for high-consideration stays or long-term leases.

Agency economics

Retaining creators or social agencies at five hundred to two thousand dollars per month does not scale across a portfolio. You need repeatable production per unit — not one hero campaign per season.

What Zently is

An end-to-end content system for property marketing — not a single prompt in a chat window.

Zently coordinates screenplay, first-frame composition, and image-to-video motion in one pipeline. You supply photos and creative direction; the studio returns vertical assets structured for the platform you care about — with hooks, beats, and visual continuity designed for rentals.

Intelligent screenplay

  • Gemini structures hooks, beats, and voice for Reels, carousels, or story sequences.
  • Platform-native grammar: pacing, captions direction, and format-aware scene count.
  • Brand and listing constraints flow from your brief — not from a generic template.

Photoreal first frames

  • Nano Banana 2 (NB2) composes the opening frame from your interior, persona, and props.
  • Ingredient fusion keeps lighting and layout coherent — one photograph, one moment.
  • Scene-to-scene continuity uses the real last frame of the previous clip as context.

Cinematic motion

  • Veo image-to-video animates from that first frame with smartphone-authentic camera language.
  • Native extend chains add length for walk-throughs and reveals without a hard cut.
  • Output is vertical 9:16 — ready for Reels, TikTok, and Shorts.

How it works

Five stages. One studio. Your ingredients stay the source of truth at every step.

UploadScriptFrameMotionDeliver

Step 01

Upload your ingredients

You

Bring interior and detail shots, a host or persona reference, brand colors, amenity notes, and any supporting stills — product UI, neighborhood context, or staging references. These assets anchor what the models are allowed to show. Zently does not invent rooms you never photographed.

Step 02

Script with Gemini

Screenwriter

Gemini drafts a screenplay: hook, story beats, tone, and structure matched to the format you are targeting. A Reel script differs from a carousel narrative or a portfolio montage. Optional caption direction travels with the script so your post copy aligns with what viewers see.

Step 03

Frame with NB2

Cinematographer

Nano Banana 2 generates the first frame of each scene from your first-frame description plus ingredients. Character, wardrobe, and space compose in a single photoreal image. For multi-scene pieces, the extracted last frame of the previous scene informs the next — reducing drift and keeping visual continuity across cuts.

Step 04

Motion with Veo

Editor

Veo performs image-to-video from that frame — primary clips at platform-native durations, with optional extend segments for longer single-take moments. Motion is described in production language: handheld micro-movement, walk-through pace, reveal timing — not generic “make it cinematic.”

Step 05

Deliver ready assets

Studio output

You receive vertical video files and stills sized for social distribution. Batch variants from one ingredient set let you test hooks without reshooting. Review before you publish; your listing story stays under your control.

Roommate bill split — still part of the story

Our pivot to AI content does not mean walking away from what built Zently. The rental tools you rely on remain in the product suite.

From day one, Zently handled rent payments, roommate expense splits, and maintenance requests with photo proof — the everyday friction between tenants and landlords.

Splitting utilities, shared groceries, and household costs stays core. Roommates settle up fairly; landlords see who paid what without chasing spreadsheets.

The AI content studio is new muscle on the same skeleton: marketing reach on top of operational trust. One brand, one login — rental ops and content production under one roof.

  • Automatic roommate bill splits
  • Rent collection and payment tracking
  • Maintenance requests with photo proof
  • Landlord dashboard for multiple units
