Mago released a Windows desktop version of its AI video studio that renders on your own NVIDIA GPU, so local renders don't use credits. It can connect to an existing ComfyUI install or set one up, and the cloud models are still available in the app.
What it does
The desktop app has Mago's two modes: Generate, which goes from an idea or a script to a finished film, and Transform, which restyles your own footage shot by shot or all at once. Your footage can stay on your machine.
Worth knowing
It needs Windows, an NVIDIA GPU with at least 16 GB of VRAM and 60 GB of free disk space. Mago's Alexander S wrote on X that an open-source version is "coming soon".
A creator made a three-minute music video using only open-weight models on their own machine: YuE2 for the song, HiDream O1 for character and world references, Qwen 3.8 27B to format prompts and MiniMax H3 for the video. The edit was done in DaVinci Resolve with only basic tools and no cloud AI.
Kling 4.0 is Kling AI's new video model, which can generate up to 30 seconds of video in one go with keyframe control and sound. After early access in late September, it is now fully available, including through MCP and a command-line tool.
The open-source mflux tool now runs Black Forest Labs' FLUX 3 Image Klein natively on Macs with MLX. Version 0.23 covers text-to-image, editing with up to ten reference images, LoRAs and 4, 6 or 8-bit quantization.
A free ComfyUI workflow from Skysay chains Fish Audio Drama 3 for expressive speech with MiniMax H3 for a lip-synced talking video, all on your own GPU. It ships as MIT-licensed graphs plus a script that runs both stages.
MOSS-Image is a new open-weight text-to-image family from OpenMOSS, with Base and SFT checkpoints under Apache 2.0. Besides plain prompts, it accepts tag lists and JSON layouts that place text and objects with bounding boxes.
