Set up in 5 minutes

From download to your first 10 ready-to-post reels. Every step, with pictures.

1

Install the app

Run the setup file you downloaded. It installs just for you โ€” no admin rights, no restart, about a minute.

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ If Windows shows a blue "Windows protected your PC" screen, click More info โ†’ Run anyway. This appears for every new independent app that hasn't bought a Microsoft certificate โ€” the app is exactly the file you downloaded from us.
2

Paste your license key

Your key arrived by email right after payment (subject line with your license inside; check Spam / Promotions if you don't see it). Copy the whole key, paste it in, done โ€” the app works offline forever after this one step.

Activation screen

One key, one time. Reinstalls and updates never ask again.

3

Add your free AI key

The app uses a free Groq AI key to listen to your video and write word-synced captions. One minute, one time:

  1. Open console.groq.com and sign in (free, no card)
  2. Click Create API key and copy it
  3. Paste it in the app
Free AI key screen
๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ Making videos in Tamil, Hindi, Telugu or other Indian languages? You can also add a free Sarvam key later in Settings for even better captions.
4

Drop in a talking video

Drag your raw footage in (MP4/MOV, any language). Optionally tell the AI what you want โ€” "tight cuts, strong hook, calm zooms" โ€” and pick the language if it's not English.

Upload screen

Your past videos appear at the bottom โ€” reopen any of them anytime.

5

Pick your path

After the AI listens to your video (a minute or two), you choose:

  • Make my videos now โ€” the AI picks styles, openings, captions and sounds, and renders 10 different edits.
  • Choose my own style โ€” a 4-step wizard where you tick what you like first.

The style wizard

Four quick steps โ€” style, opening effect, captions, graphics. Tap up to 3 styles you like; the live preview on every card shows your actual video in that look. The AI pre-ticks its favourites, and "Let AI do the rest" finishes any step for you.

Your 10 videos

The AI directs and renders all 10 versions โ€” different cuts, captions, openings, music and text moments. Tap any card to watch it, then Download the ones you love and post.

Your videos gallery

Director's notes at the top explain what the AI chose and why.

8

Edit anything

Not happy with a detail? Open any version in the Editor โ€” change the words of a caption, move it up or down, swap the music, remove a section, soften the sounds โ€” or just tell the chat what you want in plain words ("remove the last line", "make the captions bigger", "calmer music").

Quick answers

My license key didn't arrive

Give it a couple of minutes and check Spam / Promotions. Still nothing? Email support with your payment ID โ€” a real person will send your key.

Does it work offline?

Activation and editing run on your computer. Only the caption AI (your free Groq key) needs internet while a video is being listened to โ€” rendering itself is fully local.

Which videos work best?

One person talking to the camera โ€” phone footage is perfect. Vertical or horizontal, any length, any language. The AI cuts the dead air and silences for you, so don't worry about pauses and retakes.

Where are my finished videos saved?

Press Download on any version โ€” it saves as a normal MP4 ready for Reels, Shorts or TikTok. Your projects also live in your app data folder, and uninstalling never deletes them.

I bought on one computer, can I reinstall?

Yes โ€” your key keeps working on your computer, forever. Keep the license email safe; it's your proof of purchase.
