Most AI video makers live in a browser tab and keep your projects on their servers. vbe is an app for Mac and Windows: your work is saved on your computer, the finished video renders on your computer, and only what an AI step needs is sent, after you say yes.
How it works
Paste your script
Start a new video and paste in what you have written. vbe checks it for anything that would waste a paid step later, then splits it into sections.
See the cost and say yes
vbe plans every scene and shows what the voice and the new pictures will cost. Nothing is spent until you say yes.
Render on your computer
vbe lines a caption up with every word and renders the finished video on your own computer. Rendering costs nothing in AI fees.
Why an app on your own computer
- Your files stay with you. Scripts, pictures and videos are saved in your own folder.
- Rendering is free. The finished video is made on your computer, so it costs nothing in AI fees.
- A record of every yes. vbe keeps who approved what, and when. If the plan changes, it asks again.
Your scripts, pictures and finished videos stay in your own folder on your computer, and nothing you make is used to train AI.
AI that proposes, you that decide
AI is fast, and it is confidently wrong often enough that someone has to check it. In vbe the AI proposes the plan and the pictures, vbe checks the work against your script, and you decide. That is why every paid step shows its price and waits.
What it costs
Writing the plan, making new pictures and a premium voice cost a little each time. Before every one of those steps, vbe shows the price and waits for your yes. A yes covers that step only, so nothing is spent by surprise. Captions and rendering run on your computer and cost nothing.
