Emberforge — Own the Forge,Dont rent it
A local desktop faceless video pipeline (BYO API keys)
Tired of overpriced AI video subscriptions? Emberforge is a local desktop pipeline (Windows, Mac, Linux) that generates viral, faceless vertical shorts using your own API keys. By paying providers like ElevenLabs, fal.ai, and Anthropic directly, you generate clips for ~43¢ each instead of a bloated $40/mo SaaS fee. It handles scripts, voiceovers, character-consistent visuals, and burnt-in captions. No recurring bills, no middleman markup. Pay once, own the forge forever.
Hey Product Hunt!I built Emberforge because I got tired of cloud-hosted video SaaS markups charging me an arm and a leg just to render basic vertical shorts. Middlemen markups on API usage have gotten out of hand, so I built a local desktop application (Windows, Mac, Linux) that runs entirely on your own API keys.By skipping the standard SaaS markup and paying raw API costs directly to the providers (ElevenLabs, fal.ai, Anthropic), my videos cost about 43¢ each instead of a $40/month locked credit tier.It handles scripting, narration, consistent character seeds, visual rendering, and burn-in captions in a single double-click interface. I'm offering the first 25 copies on Gumroad for a flat $49 launch price—buy it once, own the local pipeline forever.I'd love to hear your thoughts or answer any technical questions about the architecture!
