About us

We built the video tool we wanted to use

Vid Optimus turns your own script into a finished video, on your own computer, for one flat price. Here's why it exists and how we run it.

Why it exists

Turning a script into a video shouldn't be this hard

Good editing software makes you learn timelines and keyframes before you can make anything. The AI video tools that promise to skip that step often rewrite your words into something generic, then bill you by the minute.

We wanted something in between: a desktop app that keeps your script exactly as you wrote it, plans the shots for you, and still gives you a real timeline to polish the result. So we built it.

Other AI video tools
  • Rewrite your script into something generic
  • Sell credits that run out mid-project
  • Render in a cloud queue you wait on
  • Lock features behind higher tiers
Vid Optimus
  • Keeps every word of your script
  • One flat price, unlimited videos
  • Renders on your own computer
  • Every feature on every plan
How it's built

We don't train our own AI. We connect the best providers.

Vid Optimus runs each step with a provider that is already great at it. What we build is everything around them: the pipeline, the timeline editor, caption timing and a fast export on your computer.

How we work

The promises we build around

Six rules that shape every decision about the app and how we sell it.

Your words stay yours

Vid Optimus never rewrites your narration. AI plans the pictures around your script, not the script itself.

Your keys stay on your computer

Your AI provider keys are used from your computer to call those providers directly. They are never sent to us.

No credits, no upgrade walls

Every paid plan includes every feature and unlimited videos. Plans only differ in how you pay.

Try it before you pay

The 7-day trial is the full app, not a demo. That way you know it fits before you buy, because sales are final once a licence is activated.

New models arrive as updates

When a new AI model or provider is worth adding, it shows up in the app you already have. No reinstall, no migration.

Honest about the costs

We charge no per-video fee. If you use a paid AI provider, that provider bills you directly for what you use. The built-in voice and stock are free.

Privacy

What we can see, and what we can't

The app talks to our server to check your licence and count usage. Your creative work never goes through us.

What we receive

  • Your account email and your purchase
  • Licence activation and regular licence checks, with a device ID
  • Usage counts, like videos and images made, and which provider and model
  • During the trial, how long your script is (the length, not the text)

What we never see

  • The text of your scripts
  • Your AI provider API keys
  • Your images, voiceovers, captions or videos
  • Your projects or where you store them
What you make

Your videos belong to you

Everything you create with Vid Optimus is yours, including for commercial use. Images, stock media and voices from third-party providers still follow those providers' own terms, so check them before you publish at commercial scale.

The terms explain the details in plain English.
