Meet your new studio.

The free edition includes the full production workflow. Build it on your Mac, try the included demo, then bring your own ideas and footage.

1. Get your Mac ready

• macOS 14 or later
• Xcode command-line tools with Swift 6 or later
• Node.js 24 or later and Bun 1.4 or later
• FFmpeg and ffprobe, with libx264 and libmp3lame

DaVinci Resolve and Blender are optional. Local transcription uses whisper.cpp; paid AI features require your own provider keys.

2. Build the free edition

git clone https://github.com/isbkch/YouTube-AI-Studio.git
cd YouTube-AI-Studio
bun install
bun run macos

The build creates and installs the development app. Keep the repository and its dependencies in place: the app uses them at runtime.

3. Try a complete example

bun run demo
bun run macos:demo

The demo renders a sample project using synthetic footage and mock providers, without paid AI calls. It uses macOS speech and may download rendering dependencies on first use. When it opens, select the newest “Why Redundancy Is Not High Availability” project and explore Storyboard or Review.
