Use Gibberish Text from Animata (https://animata.design/docs/text/gibberish-text, MIT) for a decode-style word, centred or as a label over a product shot. Each letter runs its own setInterval that swaps in random capitals (Math.random) a random number of times before showing the real letter, so no two runs match. For a render, give letter i a fixed settle time from a seeded random and, before that time, show a capital chosen by a seeded hash of (i, frame); t comes from frame / fps in Remotion or the timeline time in HyperFrames. Set the text, a monospace font and the settle window (around 0.5–1 s).
