Scout trends → clip long videos → generate captioned shorts → design motion graphics → polish with 22 local tools. All on your machine. Bring your own API keys. No SaaS in the middle. No telemetry.
Quick Start • Features • What's free • BYOK • Contributing
Cut a long video into shorts on a real timeline — drag across its own frames, snap to sentence boundaries, or let the AI propose the moments. Scouting, transcription, AI video, motion graphics and 22 editing tools all run from the same app.
What manual creators do across a dozen tabs and apps, ViralMint runs as one local workflow. Find trending videos across YouTube, TikTok and Douyin, transcribe and analyze them with local Whisper, cut long videos into publishable shorts on a real timeline, write original scripts with the AI of your choice, render captioned stock-footage videos, design animated motion graphics — and get back a finished MP4 with an AI-drafted title, description and tags, ready to post. Drive it from a browser, or chat with it on Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, or Slack.
| 🔒 100% local | SQLite, local Whisper, local FFmpeg. Your scripts, transcripts, downloads, and generated videos never leave your machine. |
| 🔑 BYOK, no middleman | Bring your own Anthropic / OpenAI / OpenRouter / YouTube / Pexels keys, or point it at any OpenAI-compatible server (Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM…). Encrypted at rest with Fernet (AES-128-CBC, HMAC-signed), sent straight to the provider — there is no ViralMint server in between. |
| 🤖 Agents, not a chat wrapper | Purpose-built agents — Planner, Scout, Download, Analyzer and Generator — orchestrated by a streaming AI chat that actually runs the work. |
| ✂️ Clip, generate, or design | Three ways to a finished video: cut shorts from a long source on a real timeline, generate a captioned stock-footage video from a script, or author motion graphics with no footage at all. |
| 📱 Runs from your phone | Two-way chat with the planner over Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, or Slack — and job alerts in the same thread. |
| 🆓 Free out of the box | Local Whisper, Edge TTS (400+ voices), royalty-free music, Pexels stock, and 22 built-in tools (most of them pure FFmpeg + Whisper) — the heavy lifting costs $0. Pay only for the AI you choose to plug in. |
Battle-tested: a 2,900-test pytest suite runs on every commit, plus a browser harness that drives the real app end to end. AGPL-3.0 — fork it, modify it, build a business on it.
Multi-platform trend discovery across YouTube, TikTok, and Douyin (plus any yt-dlp-supported site via dynamic search), with AI virality scoring, Google-Trends demand signals, view-velocity analysis, and outlier detection (3×–20× the channel baseline).
Local Whisper transcription with clean long-form handling, plus AI insight extraction — hook, structure, tone, retention risks, suggested titles, and a ready-to-run recreate prompt — scored per segment with concrete improvement suggestions.
Full pipeline: AI script → TTS voiceover → Pexels stock footage matched to keywords → phrase-aware animated captions (with CJK / Arabic / Thai support) → balanced background music → AI thumbnail → finished MP4.
One long video → many publishable shorts, cut on a real timeline. Drag across a filmstrip of the source's own frames, watch the first and last frame of your cut as you move the handles, and snap to sentence boundaries so a clip never opens mid-word. Type an exact timecode, paste times from show notes, or ask the AI — its picks land as blocks you can retime or delete before anything renders, scored on hook, flow, value, trend-fit and shareability. In a hurry, Auto-cut does the whole thing in one press and tells you how many clips that means first.
A third kind of output, with no footage in it at all: kinetic typography, animated stat cards, lower thirds, product showcases. Describe what you want and the AI writes a real composition; refine it in an embedded animation studio with a timeline, layers and an inspector, then render it entirely on your own machine. Installs on demand — it isn't in the download.
One faceted view over everything you own — renders, downloads, every tool output, your music folder. Two questions get two controls: tabs say what a file is (video / image / audio / files), chips say where it came from (created / edited / sources), so a downloaded mp3 doesn't have to pick a side. Group by source to see a download beside everything you made from it, and open Activity from any page to watch work in flight.
Streaming WebSocket chat that orchestrates every agent. Say "scout cooking videos" or "download this URL" and it just runs. Tappable quick-reply chips, follow-up questions that never lock the composer, and rich result cards that persist across reloads. The chat reads your live pipeline — downloaded-but-not-clipped, generated-but-not-posted, scouted-but-not-downloaded — and suggests the single highest-value next step instead of waiting to be asked.
Two-way chat from your phone via Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord, Slack. Command the planner from anywhere and get job alerts as they finish — same agent, different transport.
yt-dlp under the hood — YouTube, TikTok, Bilibili, Instagram, Twitter/X, SoundCloud, Vimeo, and 1,800+ other sites. No watermarks, no ads, no cap.
Single-purpose utilities — captions, reframe, crop, compress, GIF, speed, trim, subtitles, watermark, merge, auto-zoom, music-visualizer, voice-over, silence removal, video download, plus AI helpers (translate, metadata, hook analysis, auto-chapters). Most run 100% locally on FFmpeg + Whisper — no API key. Each has an inline result preview and a history of what it produced.
The expensive parts are free and local. You only pay for the AI you choose to plug in.
