Facts, with sources on each project page

Runs on my machine?

Yes, local web UI on localhost:8501

Hosted by the vendor

Code licence

Apache-2.0

—

Model weights licence

No single bundled model licence: users select Ollama, ComfyUI/RunningHub workflows or direct model APIs. Each selected weight or provider keeps its own licence and service terms; Apache-2.0 covers the application code

—

Commercial use

Apache-2.0 code; check the licence of each image/video model or API you use

—

Paid services needed?

Not required with Ollama + local ComfyUI (needs a capable GPU); otherwise paid LLM, RunningHub or image/video APIs

Subscription

Hardware

Not documented; the README recommends the free local route only if you have a local GPU

—

Operating systems

Windows (all-in-one package), macOS and Linux (from source)

—

Setup effort

Easy on Windows (all-in-one package); uv + ffmpeg on macOS/Linux; local ComfyUI is extra work
