NodeTool Cloud is in alpha. Try it โ†’

Cloud ยท Browser ยท Open sourceAlpha โ€” not generally available

Open-source
agent-first creative workspace

Create and edit images, video, audio, and text with agents that work alongside you. Describe what you want, let the agent build it, then take over whenever you like. You get an editable project, not just a finished file. Cloud brings the workspace to your browser with hosted storage and your own provider keys. Cloud is in alpha.

Heads up: Cloud is in alpha and not yet generally available. Expect rough edges, breaking changes, and occasional downtime while we make it solid. For real work today, use NodeTool Studio or self-host.

Why use the hosted version

Zero setup. Anywhere. Always current.

Cloud takes away the install, the hardware, and the upgrades, while leaving you in control of your provider keys and your workflows.

Start in 30 seconds

Sign in and pitch the piece. Start from the agent, an existing workflow, or a blank canvas โ€” no installer, no drivers, nothing beyond a browser tab.

Works on any device

Build on a laptop, tweak from a tablet, monitor from your phone. Your workflows follow you across machines.

Share what you build

Export a workflow as a single portable bundle โ€” the graph plus its assets โ€” and anyone can import and run it. Deeper team features are part of the alpha roadmap.

Bring your own keys

OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Mistral, Groq, Replicate, FAL, ElevenLabs, and HuggingFace all bill your account directly, not ours. No token markups.

Always on the latest version

We release Cloud updates continuously: new building blocks, new providers, and fixes, with nothing for you to install.

No GPU required

We run the servers and the storage, and demanding image and video work runs at the providers you choose.

Bring your own keys

You pay providers directly. We never add a markup.

Cloud connects to OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Mistral, Groq, Replicate, FAL, ElevenLabs, HuggingFace, and more, using the keys you provide. No hidden fees and no resold credits.

Honest tradeoffs

What Cloud doesn't do.

If any of these matter to you, install NodeTool Studio โ€” same workflows, same nodes, running on your hardware.

Alpha โ€” still early

Cloud is in active alpha. Expect changes that break things, rough edges, and occasional downtime. Uptime and support guarantees arrive with the full release.

No local models

Cloud cannot run Ollama or MLX models, because those need direct access to your hardware. Use Studio if you want open models running on your own machine.

Needs an internet connection

Cloud is a hosted app. If you need offline workflows, install Studio.

Your data lives with us

Workflows and files are stored encrypted on our servers. If your data must never leave your device, choose Studio, or host the same open-source code yourself.

Use any provider
you want

Bring your own API keys. No markup, no middleman.

List of available model providers

Supported Providers

OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Fal AI, Replicate, OpenRouter, MiniMax, Kie.ai, and more.

Mix and Match

Use several providers in the same workflow, and switch models with one click.

No Middleman

Your key goes to the provider you picked and nowhere else. No markup, no resold credits.

Providers bill you directly, at their list prices, whichever edition you run.

Run it on your own machine instead

One canvas.
The whole production.

Script, storyboard, footage, sound, and the cut โ€” on one canvas, with the editing tools sitting right next to the models. You direct the whole piece instead of generating parts of it.

Scripting & casting

Go from prompt to screenplay in seconds. Draft dialogue, cast character voices, and audition alternate line readings with automatic word-level sync.

Any model you can reach

Route your shots through Flux, Seedance, Wan, Whisper, ElevenLabs, Suno, and the rest, on your own keys. Studio adds open weights running on your own hardware. No platform lock-in.

A real timeline, not a black box

Instead of a single unfixable video file, the agent hands you a fully editable multi-track project. Fine-tune every frame, layer, and audio stem.

Edit where you generate

Mask, retouch, extend, relight, upscale, layer, and composite. The tools you reach for live on the same canvas as the models.

Two ways to run it, one open-source project

Studio runs on your machine.
Cloud runs in your browser.

Same workflows, same building blocks, same providers, both AGPL-3.0. Cloud is our hosting of the code you can run yourself. Switch between them whenever you like.

    Free while it is in alpha, a hosting subscription at full release โ€” provider bills are yours either way

One recommendation, not two: use Studio for work you are being paid for โ€” it is the finished edition. Cloud is for looking around without installing anything, and it is in alpha until further notice. Workflows move freely between the two.

Cloud is just our hosting of open-source code.

Every building block, every provider, and every line of code behind Cloud is on GitHub under AGPL-3.0. If you ever want to run it yourself, everything we run is yours to run too. There are no cloud-only features and nothing kept closed.

Made with working creatives

NodeTool is open source under AGPL-3.0. Star it on GitHub, join us on Discord, and share workflows with the artists and studios already using it on real jobs.
