Local-first AI video editor

AI editing without making the cloud your default workspace.

AVE starts from the Mac: local project folders, local media, local analysis, timeline editing, and native export. Connect external providers only when the job calls for them.

Default posture

Local unless you opt into something else.

Project files, imported media, local analysis, timeline operations, and exports stay on your Mac by default.

External assistants, custom API endpoints, and BYO generation providers are optional choices.

Local models and installed assistants can be used for planning when configured.

Provider keys are handled by the desktop app and stored using encrypted secure storage where supported.

The AVE 1.0.0 Mac download is distributed through GitHub Releases.
