Upload one photo, pick one of six private-property scenes and get an AI "State? This? Hit the road, dude" reaction video in your browser. No prompt needed: pick the model, resolution, length and frame shape, check the credit quote, then create, preview and download the clip. The default is a 5-second 480p 9:16 video. It works on phone and desktop browsers.
WaveXML auto-syncs Zoom / Sound Devices dual-system audio to camera footage via an XML round-trip for DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, and Final Cut Pro. Drop FCP7 or FCPXML from your NLE, press Synchronize, then import the XML back and keep cutting. Built for wedding/event multi-cam, interview/doc boom+lav workflows, and PluralEyes-style timeline sync.
