Other video generation tools in our directory. See all video generation tools →
ComfyUI
Node-based open-source engine for image and video generation workflows. Run models like Wan, LTX and Hunyuan locally or in Comfy Cloud, with an agent that builds workflows.
Hypit
An open-source agent workflow that takes a viral short video and rebuilds it as an editable template, letting you swap the presenter, script, voice and B-roll to produce many new variants with your own API keys.
OpenFilm
Open-source AI video agent: a skill and CLI that let Claude Code, Codex or any coding agent make films as web pages, plus Studio, a local editor to change and render anything it makes.
LTX-2
Lightricks' open audio-and-video generation model. Official Python inference and LoRA trainer.
Vidu
AI video generator from text, images and references, with fast workflows for social clips, ads and stories.
iArt
iArt is an AI motion graphics agent that turns a text prompt, or uploaded images, PDFs, slide decks, audio or a web link, into animated scenes. It writes real animation code scene by scene (layout, typography, timing, transitions), so text stays exactly spelled and you can refine the result by chatting ("make the title two seconds shorter"). It handles explainers, logo animations, kinetic typography, animated charts, lower thirds and audio-synced captions, adds AI voiceover or a cloned voice, and exports MP4 (1080p on Pro, 4K on Ultra) or transparent WebM overlays.
