What it is
Type an idea and get a finished vertical video: script, footage, natural voiceover, word-highlighted captions and music. The AI runs on the customer’s own Mac or PC, so there is nothing to pay per video.
What was hard
- AI on the customer’s machine
- Script writing, voice and caption timing all run locally, with model sizes chosen to fit the computer’s memory.
- Mac and Windows from one codebase
- Installers for both are built and tested automatically on real Mac and Windows machines for every release.
- Pay once, make unlimited videos
- A one-time license with activation keys, against competitors that charge monthly and meter every video.
Real output
Frames from videos TallyReel made, each from a one-line idea.
