Follow these steps: **Step 1** — Mount the DMG and drag the app to `/Applications` **Step 2** — Open Terminal and run: ```bash xattr -cr "/Applications/Open Generative AI.app" ``` **Step 3** — Right-click the app in `/Applications` → click **Open** → click **Open** again on the dialog > You only need to do this once. After that, the app opens normally. **Alternative (no Terminal):** 1. Try to open the app — macOS will block it 2. Go to **System Settings → Privacy & Security** 3. Scroll down to find _"Open Generative AI was blocked"_ 4. Click **Open Anyway** → **Open** ### Windows Installation — SmartScreen warning fix Windows SmartScreen may show a warning because the installer is not code-signed: 1. Click **More info** on the SmartScreen dialog 2. Click **Run anyway** The app will install silently to `%LocalAppData%` with a Start Menu shortcut. ### Ubuntu / Linux Installation Linux artifacts are available when building with Electron Builder: ```bash # Build Linux installers (AppImage + .deb) npm run electron:build:linux ``` Generated files are written to the `release/` folder: - **AppImage** — portable, run directly after making executable: ```bash chmod +x "release/Open Generative AI-*.AppImage" ./release/Open\ Generative\ AI-*.AppImage ``` - **.deb** — install on Debian/Ubuntu: ```bash sudo apt install ./release/open-generative-ai_*_amd64.deb ``` If AppImage fails to start on older systems, install `libfuse2`: ```bash sudo apt install libfuse2 ``` #### Ubuntu 24.04+ / AppArmor sandbox restriction Ubuntu 24.04 and later enable a kernel security policy (`apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns`) that blocks Chromium's user-namespace sandbox. If the app fails to start silently or crashes immediately, you have two options: **Option A — Recommended: install the `.deb` instead.** The `.deb` package ships an AppArmor profile that grants the required permission automatically on install with no system-wide changes. **Option B — Temporary system fix (AppImage users):** ```bash sudo sysctl -w kernel.apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns=0 ``` This lasts until next reboot. To make it permanent: ```bash echo 'kernel.apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns=0' | sudo tee /etc/sysctl.d/99-userns.conf ``` --- Open Generative AI is a free, open-source AI image, video, cinema, and lip sync studio that brings creative workflows to everyone.

Pick whichever fits the machine you actually run on: | Engine | What it is | Best for | |---|---|---| | **sd.cpp** (bundled) | C++ engine from [stable-diffusion.cpp](https://github.com/leejet/stable-diffusion.cpp), runs on the same machine as the app. Metal GPU on Apple Silicon, CUDA/Vulkan/ROCm on Linux/Windows. | Image-only models. Works on Mac M-series. | | **Wan2GP** (BYO server) | HTTP client to a user-run [Wan2GP](https://github.com/deepbeepmeep/Wan2GP) server. The server runs Python + PyTorch on a CUDA/ROCm GPU; the desktop app only sends prompts and receives results. | Video models (Wan 2.2, Hunyuan, LTX) and large image models (Flux, Qwen-Image). NVIDIA/AMD GPU required on the *server*; the desktop app itself can run on a Mac. | Both engines share the same UI: open **Settings → Local Models** to configure each. ### Engine 1 — sd.cpp (bundled) | Model | Type | Size | Notes | |---|---|---|---| | **Z-Image Turbo** ⚡ | Diffusion Transformer | 2.5 GB + 2.7 GB aux | 8-step turbo. Heavy on memory. | | **Z-Image Base** ⚡ | Diffusion Transformer | 3.5 GB + 2.7 GB aux | 50-step high-quality. Heavy on memory. | | **Dreamshaper 8** | SD 1.5 | 2.1 GB | 20-step versatile. Lightest tested option on Mac. | | **Realistic Vision v5.1** | SD 1.5 | 2.1 GB | 25-step photorealistic | | **Anything v5** | SD 1.5 | 2.1 GB | 20-step anime/illustration | | **SDXL Base 1.0** | SDXL | 6.9 GB | 30-step high-res | > **Z-Image models** require two shared auxiliary files (downloaded once, shared across both models): > - **Qwen3-4B Text Encoder** — 2.4 GB > - **FLUX VAE** — 335 MB **How to use:** 1. Open **Settings → Local Models** in the desktop app 2. Install the **sd.cpp inference engine** (one click — auto-downloaded) 3. Download your chosen model (and auxiliary files for Z-Image) 4. In **Image Studio**, click the **⚡ Local** toggle next to the model selector 5. Select your local model and generate — no API key needed All downloads happen inside the app. Nothing is installed system-wide. By default, `sd.cpp` stores the engine, model weights, and temporary downloads under Electron's app data directory. Common paths are: - macOS: `~/Library/Application Support/open-generative-ai/local-ai` - Windows: `%APPDATA%\open-generative-ai\local-ai` - Linux: `~/.config/open-generative-ai/local-ai` To keep multi-GB model weights on another drive, set `OPEN_GENERATIVE_AI_LOCAL_AI_DIR` before launching the desktop app. The app will create `bin/`, `models/`, and `tmp/` inside that directory, and **Settings -> Local Models** shows the resolved model folder. Local engine output and download errors are written to the app process console, so launch from Terminal or PowerShell when you need troubleshooting logs. ### Engine 2 — Wan2GP (remote Gradio server) The app does **not** bundle Python or model weights for Wan2GP. You run Wan2GP yourself on a machine with a CUDA or ROCm GPU and point the desktop app at its URL. ```bash # On your GPU machine git clone https://github.com/deepbeepmeep/Wan2GP cd Wan2GP ./install.sh # or install.bat on Windows python wgp.py --listen --server-name 0.0.0.0 # binds to all interfaces ``` Then in the desktop app: **Settings → Local Models → Wan2GP server**, paste the URL (e.g. `http://192.168.1.42:7860`), click **Test**, then **Save**. The Wan2GP models become available — image models in **Image Studio**, video models reachable via the same generation API (Image Studio rejects video output explicitly; full Video Studio wiring is on the roadmap). | Model | Type | Notes | |---|---|---| | **Flux.1 Dev** | Image | 1024px, 28 steps | | **Qwen Image** | Image | 1024px, 30 steps | | **Wan 2.2 (T2V / I2V)** | Video | Slow on consumer GPUs | | **Hunyuan Video** | Video | High-quality T2V | | **LTX Video** | Video | Fastest video option | > **Why a separate server?** Wan2GP's runtime (Sage attention, flash-attn, AWQ/GGUF kernels) is CUDA-only — there is no MPS / Apple Silicon path. Treating it as a remote server lets a Mac-only user keep the desktop app while offloading inference to a Linux/Windows GPU box, a gaming PC on the LAN, or a rented RunPod/vast.ai instance. > **Local inference is only available in the desktop app.** The hosted web version always uses cloud APIs. ### Hardware Notes - **sd.cpp** runs on CPU (all platforms) and **Metal GPU** on Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4); CUDA/Vulkan/ROCm on Linux/Windows. - Metal GPU acceleration is built into the macOS desktop binary — significantly faster than CPU-only. - Recommended for sd.cpp Z-Image: 16 GB RAM (7.4 GB weights + 2.4 GB compute buffer). On a base 8 GB M-series Mac, **Z-Image is known to hang the system** — stick to SD 1.5 there. - For SD 1.5 on M2: expect ~1–2 s/step with the Metal dylib active. If you see ~10 s/step instead, the binary may have fallen back to CPU — see verification below. ### Verifying the SD 1.5 path (the fastest sanity test on Mac) If you want to confirm sd.cpp is installed correctly without going through the UI, you can drive `sd-cli` directly. This is the same binary the app uses. ```bash # 1. App data layout (created on first app launch) APP_DATA="${OPEN_GENERATIVE_AI_LOCAL_AI_DIR:-$HOME/Library/Application Support/open-generative-ai/local-ai}" ls "$APP_DATA/bin" # sd-cli, libstable-diffusion.dylib ls "$APP_DATA/models" # whatever you've downloaded # 2. Grab a small SD 1.5 model directly (Dreamshaper 8, ~2 GB) curl -L --fail --progress-bar \ -o "$APP_DATA/models/DreamShaper_8_pruned.safetensors" \ "https://huggingface.co/Lykon/DreamShaper/resolve/main/DreamShaper_8_pruned.safetensors" # 3. Run a single 512x512 / 12-step inference DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$APP_DATA/bin" "$APP_DATA/bin/sd-cli" \ -m "$APP_DATA/models/DreamShaper_8_pruned.safetensors" \ -p "a serene mountain lake at sunrise, oil painting" \ -o /tmp/sd15-test.png \ --steps 12 -H 512 -W 512 --cfg-scale 7.5 --seed 42 \ --sampling-method euler_a ``` A healthy run on Apple Silicon prints `total params memory size = 1969.78MB (VRAM 1969.78MB, RAM 0.00MB)` (Metal-backed) and produces a coherent 512×512 PNG. If `VRAM` is `0.00MB` instead, the dylib is CPU-only — check `otool -L "$APP_DATA/bin/libstable-diffusion.dylib" | grep -i metal` and reinstall the engine from **Settings → Local Models** if Metal is missing. --- ## ✨ Features - **Image Studio** — Generate images from text prompts (50+ text-to-image models) or transform existing images (55+ image-to-image models). Switches model set automatically based on whether a reference image is provided. Quality and resolution controls visible for models that support them. - **Local Inference** — Two engines: **sd.cpp** (bundled, runs on Mac/Win/Linux with Metal/CUDA/Vulkan/ROCm) for SD 1.5, SDXL, and Z-Image; and **Wan2GP** (BYO Gradio server) for Flux, Qwen-Image, and video models (Wan 2.2, Hunyuan, LTX). Configure both in Settings → Local Models. - **Multi-Image Input** — Upload up to 14 reference images for compatible edit models (Nano Banana 2 Edit, Flux Kontext Dev, GPT-4o Edit, and more). Multi-select picker with order badges, batch upload, and a "Use Selected" confirmation flow. - **Video Studio** — Generate videos from text prompts (40+ text-to-video models) or animate a start-frame image (60+ image-to-video models). Same intelligent mode switching as Image Studio. - **Lip Sync Studio** — Animate portrait images or sync lips on existing videos using audio. 9 dedicated models across two modes: portrait image + audio → talking video, and video + audio → lipsync video. - **Cinema Studio** — Interface for photorealistic cinematic shots with pro camera controls (Lens, Focal Length, Aperture) - **Workflow Studio** — Build and run multi-step AI pipelines visually. Chain image, video, and audio models into automated flows. Browse community templates, create your own with a node-based editor, and run them via an interactive playground. - **Upload History** — Reference images are uploaded once and stored locally. A picker panel lets you reuse any previously uploaded image across sessions — no re-uploading. - **Smart Controls** — Dynamic aspect ratio, resolution/quality, and duration pickers that adapt to each model's capabilities (including t2i models with resolution or quality options) - **Generation History** — Browse, revisit, and download all past generations (persisted in browser storage) - **Image & Video Download** — One-click download of generated outputs in full resolution - **API Key Management** — Secure API key storage in browser localStorage (never sent to any server except Muapi) - **Responsive Design** — Works seamlessly on desktop and mobile with dark glassmorphism UI ### 🖼️ Image Studio — Dual Mode The Image Studio automatically switches between two model sets: | Mode | Trigger | Models | Prompt | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Text-to-Image** | Default (no image) | 50+ t2i models (Flux, Nano Banana 2, Seedream 5.0, Ideogram, GPT-4o, Midjourney…) | Required | | **Image-to-Image** | Reference image uploaded | 55+ i2i models (Kontext, Nano Banana 2 Edit, Seedream 5.0 Edit, Seededit, Upscaler…) | Optional | #### Newly Added Models | Model | Type | Key Features | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Nano Banana 2** | Text-to-Image | Google Gemini 3.1 Flash Image · Resolution 1K/2K/4K · Google Search enhancement · aspect ratio `auto` | | **Nano Banana 2 Edit** | Image-to-Image | Up to **14 reference images** · Resolution 1K/2K/4K · Google Search enhancement | | **Seedream 5.0** | Text-to-Image | ByteDance · Quality basic/high · 8 aspect ratios · up to 4K | | **Seedream 5.0 Edit** | Image-to-Image | ByteDance · Natural language style transfer · Quality basic/high | | **MiniMax Image 01** | Text-to-Image | MiniMax · 8 aspect ratios · up to 4 images per request · 1500 char prompt | #### Multi-Image Input Models that accept multiple reference images expose a multi-select picker when active: | Model | Max Images | | :--- | :--- | | Nano Banana 2 Edit | 14 | | Nano Banana Edit | 10 | | Flux Kontext Dev I2I | 10 | | Kling O1 Edit Image | 10 | | GPT-4o Edit / GPT Image 1.5 Edit | 10 | | Bytedance Seedream Edit v4 / v4.5 | 10 | | Vidu Q2 Reference to Image | 7 | | Flux 2 Flex/Pro Edit | 8 | | Nano Banana Pro Edit | 8 | | Flux Kontext Pro/Max I2I | 2 | | Wan 2.5/2.6 Image Edit | 2–3 | | Qwen Image Edit Plus / 2511 | 3 | | GPT-4o Image to Image | 5 | | Flux 2 Klein 4b/9b Edit | 4 | When a multi-image model is selected the upload trigger switches to multi-select mode: - **Checkboxes with order numbers** — images are sent to the model in the order you select them - **Batch upload** — pick multiple files at once from your file dialog - **Count badge** on the trigger shows how many images are active;

Copy the generated key value into the app; do not enter the key name or label. ### Setup > **Most users want the desktop app, not this dev path.** If you just want to run Open Generative AI on your machine, [download a prebuilt installer](#-download-desktop-app) instead — no Node.js required. The instructions below are for contributors building from source. Pick the entry point that matches your goal: - **Desktop app (Electron)** → `npm run electron:dev` - **Hosted web version (Next.js)** → `npm run dev` ```bash # Clone the repository (with submodules — required for the workflow + agent packages) git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/Anil-matcha/Open-Generative-AI.git cd Open-Generative-AI # If you already cloned without --recurse-submodules, run this once: # git submodule update --init --recursive # Install dependencies + build workspace packages (studio, workflow, agents). # This step is REQUIRED — `npm install` alone is not enough; the workspaces # need to be built before either dev script will work. npm run setup # Then start ONE of: npm run electron:dev # Desktop app (Electron + Vite) — recommended npm run dev # Hosted web version (Next.js) → http://localhost:3000 ``` You'll be prompted to enter your Muapi API key on first use (skip the key if you only plan to use local models). > **Troubleshooting — `Couldn't find a 'pages' directory`**: this means Next.js can't see the `app/` folder. Confirm you're running `npm run dev` from the repo root (the directory that contains `app/`, `package.json`, and `next.config.mjs`), and that you cloned with submodules. Re-run `npm run setup` if `packages/Vibe-Workflow` or `packages/agents` are empty. ### Production Build ```bash npm run build npm run start ``` ### Desktop App Build Build native desktop apps with Electron: ```bash # macOS (DMG — Intel + Apple Silicon) npm run electron:build # Windows (NSIS installer — x64 + ARM64) npm run electron:build:win # Linux (AppImage + DEB — x64) npm run electron:build:linux # Both platforms in one pass npm run electron:build:all ``` Installers are output to the `release/` folder. Pre-built binaries are also available on the [Releases page](https://github.com/Anil-matcha/Open-Generative-AI/releases). ## 🏗️ Architecture The app is a **Next.js monorepo** with a shared `packages/studio` component library. ``` Open-Generative-AI/ ├── app/ # Next.js App Router │ ├── layout.js # Root layout (Tailwind, fonts) │ ├── page.js # Redirects → /studio │ └── studio/ │ └── page.js # Studio page — renders StandaloneShell ├── components/ │ ├── StandaloneShell.js # Tab nav + BYOK (API key from localStorage) │ └── ApiKeyModal.js # API key entry modal ├── packages/ │ └── studio/ # Shared React component library │ └── src/ │ ├── index.js # Exports: ImageStudio, VideoStudio, AudioStudio, ClippingStudio, VibeMotionStudio, LipSyncStudio, CinemaStudio, MarketingStudio, WorkflowStudio, AgentStudio, DesignAgentStudio, AppsStudio, McpCliStudio │ ├── models.js # 200+ model definitions (single source of truth) │ ├── muapi.js # API client (named exports, apiKey as first param) │ └── components/ │ ├── ImageStudio.jsx # Dual-mode t2i/i2i studio │ ├── VideoStudio.jsx # Dual-mode t2v/i2v studio │ ├── LipSyncStudio.jsx # Portrait/video + audio → talking video │ ├── CinemaStudio.jsx # Pro studio with camera controls │ └── WorkflowStudio.jsx # Multi-step pipeline builder & playground ├── next.config.mjs # transpilePackages: ['studio'] ├── tailwind.config.js └── package.json # workspaces: ["packages/studio"] ``` The `packages/studio` library is also consumed by the hosted version on [muapi.ai](https://muapi.ai?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=open-generative-ai) — model updates made in `packages/studio/src/models.js` apply to both the self-hosted app and the hosted version automatically. ## 🔌 API Integration The app communicates with [Muapi.ai](https://muapi.ai?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=open-generative-ai) using a two-step pattern: 1. **Submit** — `POST /api/v1/{model-endpoint}` with prompt and parameters 2. **Poll** — `GET /api/v1/predictions/{request_id}/result` until status is `completed` Authentication uses the `x-api-key` header. During development, a Vite proxy handles CORS by routing `/api` requests to `https://api.muapi.ai`. File uploads use `POST /api/v1/upload_file` (multipart/form-data) and return a hosted URL that is passed to image-conditioned models. For multi-image models the full `images_list` array is forwarded to the API in one request. Lip sync jobs use the same two-step pattern: a dedicated `processLipSync()` method accepts `image_url` or `video_url` alongside `audio_url`, dispatches to the model's endpoint, and polls until the output video URL is available. ## 🎨 Supported Model Categories | Category | Count | Examples | |---|---|---| | **Text-to-Image** | 50+ | Flux Dev, Nano Banana 2, Seedream 5.0, Ideogram v3, Midjourney v7, GPT-4o, SDXL | | **Image-to-Image** | 55+ | Nano Banana 2 Edit (×14), Flux Kontext Pro, GPT-4o Edit, Seededit v3, Upscaler, Background Remover | | **Text-to-Video** | 40+ | Kling v3, Sora 2, Veo 3, Wan 2.6, Seedance 2.0, Seedance 2.0 Extend, Seedance Pro, Hailuo 2.3, Runway Gen-3 | | **Image-to-Video** | 60+ | Kling v2.1 I2V, Veo3 I2V, Runway I2V, Seedance 2.0 I2V, Midjourney v7 I2V, Hunyuan I2V, Wan2.2 I2V | | **Lip Sync** | 9 | Infinite Talk I2V, Wan 2.2 Speech to Video, LTX 2.3 Lipsync, LTX 2 19B Lipsync, Sync, LatentSync, Creatify, Veed, Infinite Talk V2V | ## 🛠️ Tech Stack - **Next.js 14** — App Router, server components, fast dev server - **React 18** — Studio UI components - **Tailwind CSS v3** — Utility-first styling - **npm workspaces** — Monorepo with shared `packages/studio` library - **Muapi.ai** — AI model API gateway ## 🤔 How is this different from other AI Video Platforms? **Open Generative AI** is a community-driven, open-source alternative that provides similar creative capabilities without the closed ecosystem: | | Other providers | Open Generative AI | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Cost** | Subscription-based | Free (open-source) | | **Content filters** | Yes — prompts blocked or altered | None | | **Restrictions** | Platform guardrails enforced | Full creative freedom | | **Models** | Proprietary | 200+ open & commercial models | | **Multi-image input** | Limited | Up to 14 images per request | | **Lip sync** | No | 9 models, image & video modes | | **Hosted version** | Subscription | Free at [muapi.ai/open-generative-ai](https://muapi.ai/open-generative-ai?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=open-generative-ai) | | **Self-hosting** | No | Yes | | **Customizable** | No | Fully hackable | | **Data privacy** | Cloud-based | Your data stays local | | **Source code** | Closed | MIT licensed | ## 📄 License MIT ## 🙏 Credits Built with [Muapi.ai](https://muapi.ai?utm_source=github&utm_medium=readme&utm_campaign=open-generative-ai) — the unified API for AI image and video generation models. --- **Deep Dive**: For more details on the "AI Influencer" engine, upcoming "Popcorn" storyboarding features, and the future of this project, read the [full technical overview](https://medium.com/@anilmatcha/). --- *Looking for a free, open-source AI Video Platform?
