Modes
More than text to image.
The Image tab is text-to-image until you load an edit or upscale model. Video is a separate pass from a still you already have.
Image → Video
Start from a still, describe the motion, and render a short clip with a local video model.
Init image
Drop a source for image-to-image, instruction edits, or a first frame for video.
Saved on your Mac
Every output lands in a local gallery. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is metered.
A complete local loop
Generate, refine, and keep the result.
There is no upload step and no cloud gallery. Outputs stay in Saved on your Mac.
