Replace: Suno AI, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Lovable, Manus, Opus Clip & more

0:00You're going to save so much money and you're going to have more privacy and more control over the software tools you use because I'm going to show you how to replace your 10 subscriptions with 10 free repos that you can use and edit on your computer. And it is about more than just free. This is about customization. Everything I'm showing you is open source so you can work with it and build

0:18on it. Timestamps and links below. Presented by Zapier, the AI automation company. Let's get to the first one and it is Voice Studio. It's there to replace 11 labs. It's got over 54,000 stars on GitHub. And we know 11 Labs, right? It's the hugely popular AI voice generator. It turns type text into lifelike speech. I've used it forever, right? You create these voices that sound like you or like real people. But here's the thing, it costs money. And every retry and every small tweak burns through credits that you paid for. If you cancel, you downgrade, your unused credits are gone. There all these issues that people have brought up, and I've

0:56got sources here. Um and of course the price it gets expensive especially depending on what type of business use you have. So voice studio was started this April by a startup CTO in India. It took him 10 days to get this thing off the ground. It hit within 6 months 3800. You don't care how many uh up code updates, right?

1:17Let me show you how great this thing is. Where's the link to it? Here it is. This thing is so beautiful. You can install it on your Mac right now. You can, of course, like I said, use your own uh use your computer, start editing it. But listen to the voices. The valley had been quiet for 100 years. That's a librarian. Here's a

1:36documentarian. The valley had been quiet for a hundred years. Okay, you get the picture, right? So, it's a free desktop app. It copies a voice from a short clip, which makes me a little nervous, but you know, it's it's incredibly effective. It reads any script in that voice. It dubs your videos into other languages. There is no credit counter, so you can redo a line 50 times and it's going to cost you nothing. That's why I'm so excited about this. All right, here's what it ships with. This ability to copy a voice from a clip. You can design a brand new voice just just by describing what you're

2:07looking for. You can dub videos with it. You can create audio books with it. There's so much more that you can do. But let's be clear that the default voice model, Omnivoice, is for non-commercial use only. So, if you're if you got paid work, you're going to need to switch to a model like one of these. And they do have a pro a paid pro version, which is $99 a month. That's going to add the business license for the app. For most people who are watching, this is not what you need. The paid version. I mean, the free is going to do it for you. Go try it on their

2:36website, install it, or go to GitHub, and I've got links to the repo so you can go and mess with it. Let's go on to number two. Odysius by PewDiePie. This replaces your chat GPT. It's got over 91,000 GitHub stars. You know, Chat GPT, right? It's probably the tool that got you into AI in the first place when it

2:56started with their AI chat assistant. But people are starting to get a little irritated about the price. $20 a month. And then once you hit your limit, the next option jumps to 100 bucks. Then when there's an issue with the with the billing, you have to deal with the chatbot. All these issues you might be

3:11familiar with. And it gets expensive. Honestly, for me, this is not that expensive. 240 a year. I'm paying what, 200 bucks a month, I think, to them. But it does it does start to add up and it gets irritating when there are limits on these things. The other issue that really irritated PewDiePie that made him want to do this is he was starting to tell the AI so many personal things about himself which makes me wonder really what was he asking? But we're all asking personal things, right? And then it was building up its own memory in the chat GPT memories. And he said, "Oof, I

3:37feel a little weird about it." And so PewDiePie, I I can't say it like that. I got to say it the way he used to say it. PewDiePie, he's a YouTuber with over a 100 million subscribers. He started playing with AI models on his home computer and he realized it's actually getting a lot easier than it used to be and it's much more approachable. So this goofy guy who's actually super smart started saying okay if this is so good why does it have to look so ugly? Why can't we make it more userfriendly? And

4:02that's what led him to create Adysius. It's got Chat GPT's features not all of them on your own computer. So that means you're going to get chat, you're going to get deep research, you're going to get memory, and this is I think is the thing that made him want to go and create this. You're going to get agents, you're going to get an email assistant, and you're also weirdly going to get this um this like drawing app that he put in there. I don't know why. Um and if you use what's called cookbook, I think in the tool, you're going to be able to have uh Adissius find the right

4:32model that will work on your computer for free. So if you want local model, you can do it. And if you want to bring in your own API key and in a moment with the number three option for today, uh you can then you could just uh you can just do it and I'll show you how you can do it. And also of course if you want to just mess around with cloud code or any other coding agent, you can mess with it and make it right for you. So here's what it ships with chat with any AI free model. You got free ones on your

4:56computer. You can plug in paid ones if that's what you choose to do. It will do deep research and I've seen people come up with these really impressive research reports from it uh that cites its sources and does a great job there. Um, you get an email assistant for some reason on there, notes, tasks, calendars with reminders, and like I said, it also

5:13has a a drawing app. I'm not sure why. Maybe someone can tell me in the comments why. Uh, a few things worth noticing on this one is it is free, but the AI brain is up to you. It's whatever fits on your computer. It's not like an infinite thing that is as good as ChatgPT. While I'm at talk uh while I'm at it, I'm also going to tell you it's really not as good as Chat GPT. If you're looking for a one-toone replacement where you get the dots thing that they launched, you're not getting it here. But if you're looking for something that's private on your

5:41computer, won't cost money, and will chug and do the things you needed to do, it is here. And if you want um more than just what you can um run on your computer, let's talk about number three. The third thing is called free LLM API. This is what's going to replace Claude Code for many of you as the programming tool. See, Claude's Pro, it's a hugely

6:01popular a popular AI coding assistant. Um, but you're seeing that because of the decisions that the company made early on, they are constantly running into their own limitations on how much usage you could have and then they passed those use those use limits on to you. And then when you complain, there is a bot that you're going to have to deal with. I literally have three different chat GPT accounts. I can't tell where or why, so I can cancel two out of the three of them, but all I have

6:28is just an agent that I can talk with. And the agent doesn't have the answer. People are getting irritated about stuff like that. Okay. And $240 a year, nothing to sneeze at. Again, it keeps you keep increasing it. I'm at the $200 a month plan and they still will cap me and it's irritating. So, in walks this dude that I interviewed on this channel, he's a product designer at Microsoft. In fact, he had to for the interview with me on how free LLM works. He had to leave his job for the day. I think he did it from home um in Ireland. And what he did at this place is he built free

6:59LLM API. And what he realized is this. He said, "You know what? There are a lot of these other models that are really good like deepseek that are giving people free access so they could try them. there are providers of these models like Kimmy, like deep like DeepSeek that want others to start using them and then they're giving free access to these uh to these LLMs. He says, "You know what? What if I

7:23just string together all these freebies? I bet you I could code endlessly with them." And he did that. And so he created an app that will work on your Mac, on your just about anything, including Android, that will basically allow your coding agent to route from one model provider to another, giving you endless coding. So here's what you get. Dozens of AI companies that are giving away a little free usage every day. You're going to stack them all together and make it work for you. And we're talking about companies like Google, I think, is in there. Um, Grock, I think, is still in there. it changes which is why you need

7:58the Mac, Windows, and it's not on here, but there's also an Android app for some reason. I don't know why he did that. I do have a full interview with him if you want to see this whole walkthrough, but honestly, if you just get the link and just go and install it, you're going to see this is the easiest install probably on the list. And what it comes with is you're going to have hundreds of free AI models to work with. You're going to be able to immediately jump to the next free model once one hits its limit. And by the way, I asked him, I said, "Hey,

8:23if I'm using one model and suddenly I've run out of free credits there and I'm jumping to another, doesn't my whole coding experience change?" He goes, "No, you can actually get all these models from different providers. And often it's the same model from multiple providers. So you could just string the same model together and not have a problem." And he said, "But more than that, sometimes you'll find that one model is better for images, another is better for writing, and another is better for coding, and another is betting for this thing." And he goes, "You just don't string them along like they're all the same. Pick

8:51the one you want and I'm going to give you a bunch of them for free. All right. Worth noticing is this does not give you Claude. The really strong frontier models are not included here included here. You're getting others. You're getting the ones that are trying to compete and get your business. And then he also is making money from a $19 a year add-on. It's onetime fee, $19 a year. And that gets you a head start on these free models. Sometimes these free models are available for a limited time and he doesn't update the public repository with them. And so if you give him 19 bucks a month, he'll he'll update

9:22your software with those. All right, that's how it works. Great tool. I'm taking too long here. I got to move to the next one. Number four. By the way, tell me in the comments, am I going too quickly? Am I going too slowly? I really am feeding off of your feedback on these things. Okay, number four. Vain is there to replace Perplexity and it's got

9:3837,000 stars on GitHub right now. Perplexity, of course, is that hugely popular AI search engine. I know it's developed beyond this research assistant that answers qu uh your questions with sources. But that's essentially what it is. This problem with it is the pro limits were starting to be hit that people said, you know what, why am I paying for Perplexity and I'm paying for all these other agents. I'd like something else, but I also want the question and answer and research that Perplexity has. And the cost does tend to go up. And so this developer in 2024 came up with a copy of Perplexity which

10:15he had the nerve to call Perplexica. He's renamed it to Vain just a few months ago, but Perplexica. It's essentially what he's trying to do is give you an open- source version of Perplexity that you can bring your own model into. So here's what it does. It cites its answers on your computer. If you listen to a lot of podcasters, everyone except for me it seems like, but Joe Rogan and the others, you know that they've been promoting Perplexity as a place to go and ask a question and get the facts. And so this is a free version of it. Free search engine. You run it yourself. You type a question. It

10:47searches the web. It writes the answer. It gives you numbered sources. It gets you details that you're looking for. And it uses free local model that you can get from OAMA or a free Google Gemini key. Here's what it chips with. answers questions, clickable sources, pick your speed, balance and quality, search the web, you get forums, academics papers, upload PDFs and other files, you get to ask questions about them. It works with Claude, with opening I keys, with

11:12Gemini, with Grock, with all this stuff. All right. Worth noticing, of course, it means that you can do anything with it because it's MIT, but I don't think it's nearly as strong as Perplexity for many people. And the free paths are through certain places. you go to a llama um and you need a fairly strong computer. The good news is most people who are watching this will have a computer like that though I do know there's some there's some Windows people are going to have some issues here. Okay, let's go on. Oh, and as always you might need a paid key from OpenAI. I don't think you

11:44will, but I want to give you the notice that you can find alternatives, but if you bring your key, obviously you have to pay for it. All right, number five. Invoke is going to replace Midjourney. It's got 28,000 stars on GitHub. It's basically an image studio on your own computer. You know, midjourney. It's that hugely popular AI maker that many of us discovered on Discord where we can ask it questions and get all kinds of funky images created for us. It is created by a research lab that only has about 60 people and it's super impressive what they're what they've been able to do. But it often ignores

12:13your prompt even after a few tries. It then gives you no refund if you've used 20 minutes of it to generate uh images and you don't get what you're looking for. And support happens on a public Discord. The whole idea of Discord is great, but boy did they just I I've never seen a company go this big on Discord and it's it's kind of frustrating to be honest with you and it gets expensive to use Midjourney. I'm surprised. Is anyone actually still using MidJourney now that there's so many other places to get images? Let me know in the comments if you are. So in walks back uh actually what I should say

12:44is Invoke began in August 222 as a cancer researcher's own copy of stable diffusion code. The startup grew around Invoke AI. Then its founders left to join Adobe in 2025. And then volunteers kept this freaking thing going. And Invoke AI is now open source. It's the AI image studio that you can run yourself. You make images on your

13:03computer. You download them for free. There is no monthly plan. There are no limitations. Your pictures stay private. No public gallery to pay your way out of. It is yours. And because it is yours, you can use Claude Code. And you understand I'm using Claude Code as a placeholder here for whatever agent you want to change the code and make it into your own. It ships with everything you need. layered canvas. So, you can paint,

13:23erase, generate any part of an image. Drop a photo and change just the background, the outfit, one object. You can get saved step-by-step recipes that you can rerun um for every product or post, short video clips from a sentence or a still image. This thing is phenomenal. And of course, um it needs gaming graphic card or what I'm noticing with a lot of these is the latest Macs are going to be great for it. Um but a regular laptop's going to be slow. I'm noticing that more and more people are going to get more horsepower just because they're going to want to do more on their own computers. Next, AEP. This

13:58replaces Sunno. It makes full songs with vocals from a prompt. It's got 13,000 stars on GitHub. This is your Sunno AI replacement. You know, it's the hugely popular AI song generator. If you haven't used it, you've got to go over. It is so great. If you're like, I was going to somebody's house. I needed to remember their kids' names. I knew I wouldn't want to remember their kids'

14:18names just by reading it over and over. And I wanted also to know their kids' personalities and I wanted to know a few other things about them. I stuffed it into Sunno. I said, "Make me a song." I was listening to the song that day. By the time I got home, I knew all their kids' names and what their kids were about, which one was a troublemaker, which one was the one I need to be aware of cuz he was going to be shy, all that stuff. Sunno is great because it makes these custom songs for you and you can

14:37use them for anything. That was a little bit long. Let's go on. You know, you can make though with it 500 songs a month, but then they start to to cap how many you can download. You pay for a year and then because they they got so much flack for being so big, they change their rules and you get no refunds. And then you can make your song, but it's not really yours. It can't be sold. All these issues that people are having. And I find that the bigger they are, the more they're catering to companies like um Spotify with the restrictions that Spotify and I

15:09think maybe YouTube are asking for. And when you're really making an AI song, you want it to be your own. I'll give you another example. I know I'm filling you with a lot of examples for these. I come back from a vacation. I create I take all the little videos that I shoot on my my home camera and I add a song that I make using or now there are multiple AI tools that you can use to do it. I'm about to introduce you to one and you want like a song that becomes the background for these videos for your vacation and you want to and you want to

15:37reference the fun little things that you did. Well, you go to Sunno. The free version is going to charge you and then it's not really your song if you can't do whatever you want with it. All right. And then of course the price does get to be expensive, 360 bucks a year just to what mess around with some free videos for yourself. So a company of musicians who make AI singing software teamed up with an AI research lab and they said you know what what happens when closed music app starts to change their model when your music making changes overnight because it's in someone else's hand. And

16:05they said what if we just build our own alternative and that's what ACEP is. It's the open source song generator that you can host yourself. You're going to get unlimited songs on your own computer. Do I have a link here to the site so I can show it to you? I think let's go into GitHub here for a second because they do also have a hosted

16:25version of it. They a lot of these do. Um, and I'm going to link you to all the GitHub repos. Here you go. You can just come right here. You can see I logged in and for free I was creating songs here. Where's my songs? Here under the create tab, I made a little song. Um, where is it? Like free repos. I don't think it's

16:42anything to write home about. Okay. And this will bring up a problem. Where's Where are the words? [laughter] Okay. What he was trying to say there was repos are better than paid subscriptions. I thought that'd be a little cute video that or a little cute thing that I created and so I did it just to give you a sense of what it what it's like. It's not as good as to be honest. Maybe as you're messing with it, you'll get better. I think if you're really looking for a free alternative to this, Gemini now does music for free, but then you end up with another issue,

17:18which is now your music is in their hands. And so that's why this came out. It's the alternative that gives you unlimited songs on your computer. You type what you want, it writes the songs. I was using the web version of it. You can host it on your computer and make it go on your own. And then since the code is open, you can use your agent to make whatever you want to it. Just describe a song. All I did was, where is it? Can you see it here? All I did was I said in here, "Give me a hip-hop song that says that repos are better than paid

17:47subscriptions." And that's what it did. All right. You write your own lyrics in 50 languages. You want to redo one section, make a cover, add a few things. You get to do all that in here. Again, not as finely. You get more editing actually than you would with Gemini, but not nearly as much as you get with Sunno. But it's free. It's hosted by you. And that's what that and that's the that's the big benefit here. unlimited songs hosted by you for free. You do need if you're doing it on your own computer, uh Apple silicon Mac, which is one of the latest ones with about 10

18:17gigabytes of free disc space. If you are on Windows, you're going to need Nvidia graphics card with at least four meg uh 4 GBs of its own memory. All right. Um you can actually run it without a graphic card, but it's going to be much slower. And like I said, I think I said it. I don't think their music is as good as Zuno. You are going to need to fuss around with it a little bit more. They say that it's like Sunseo version 4.5 or five. I would say that it's not even at that level. Um, meanwhile, SUNO right now is at version six. So, for certain

18:49needs, absolutely. For others, you're going to want to pay for the upgrade, but go make your free songs or have your AI make your free songs. Oh, by the way, one other thing on this, one of the things that I've heard is people who are looking for customers will make songs up about the prospects that they're pitching. And so they're sending them a song in email about why they want to work with them or about how great the company is and it creates a conversation. And once you're starting to get to those levels where you're making a bunch of these things or you're starting to go to the small level, we

19:16just need one or two songs for the family, it doesn't make sense to pay so much for sunno. And so that's where an alternative like this that you can code with works. On to the next one. Seven. Open shorts. It's going to replace your open clip um for turning long videos into caption vertical clips. It's got 6,000 stars on GitHub. You know, Opus clip. It's the hugely popular AI tool that takes a long form video interview like the kind that I do on my channel. I hope you're subscribed. And um and it turns it into short clips. They say that more than 20 million creators and

19:47businesses use it. My hunch is that most of those people are using the sample free plan. It doesn't matter. It's popular. It does the thing okay enough. I still actually by I mean it does the thing okay, not great. I have um two editors who do video editing for me. I think their quality is way better than

20:04Opus Clip, which is why I don't use it. But I understand now having talked to people this week. Uh like my guitar instructor who are shooting a lot of videos. They don't want to be in the video production game. Like the guitar instructor I work with, Michael Wagner, he just wants to work with he just wants to work with students and teach them guitar. But he takes his videos, he uses Opus Clip, and he turns them into into

20:24into shorts. Um, [clears throat] the problem with it is that it's hard to cancel. Paying customers say that there that support is not very good. Um, I find that their quality is not great at Opus. And of course, there is a price. If you're just getting started, if you're not thinking about doing this professionally, then the then the fact that you're going to have to pay $348 a year starts to really eat into it and you don't have control over what you're doing. And so, there's a small company in Spain that decided they were going to create something called Open Shorts. And this is their take on it. It's the same team that runs

20:59uh upload post a service that posts one video to Tik Tok, Instagram, and YouTube at once. They put the first version on GitHub last December, and it's just taken off. This is another one that if you go into the repo, and I've got links to all of them. Did I say that? Yeah, I did say that. Uh if you go in here, you can actually see their website. Oh, here. This is a really nice video to

21:19show you a sense of how it works. Um, and if you come here, you can see their table where they talk about how how it works. Um, and now if you click here, you can go to their website, which I've been playing with. Um, let's keep the watermark. And as long as you're keeping the watermark, they'll let you play with it for free. And let

21:40me see if I can hit play on this. This guy won the Anthropic Hackathon with Okay, I'm going to pause it right there. This is the video that I posted just yesterday. And you can see it's it's clipping it. AI powered customer. Now, the fact that it's now not framed properly, I have to go into edit framing and then I go and I reframe it. I don't want to make this into a whole video just on this. If you want that, let me know and I'll bring the creator of Open Shorts on, but you get the picture. This is a free clip maker that you can host yourself or you

22:12can go to their website and use for free. You drop in your podcast, a webinar, a live stream. these days. If you use grain.com to record your meetings, you got video, you can do the same thing with that. It's going to pick three to 15 of what it considers best moments. I don't think it always does the best. And it turns them into vertical where um when someone's talking, it focuses on them and it even adds captions on it. You can run it yourself without watermark, without minimum or you can try it for free on their websites, 20 minutes a month. You saw the example that I used and it lets

22:39you play with it. It'll even run on the free Google Gemini key or your AI model on your own computer. All right, here's what it comes with. You just paste a YouTube link, which is what I did, even though I have the actual file, or you upload the file yourself, and then you end up with these vertical clips. Two people can get on camera at the same time, and then if like I'm sitting here and the other person sitting here, it gets stacked um wordbyword captions, which I I wonder so far people do still like them. I wonder how long that's going to happen. And then you can

23:06schedule your post to go on Instagram, on Tik Tok, and YouTube all in one click. And you can use your Claude agent or whatever agent you like. These days, I've been enjoying Grock. Um, no, but Claude is still number one for me. And and re uh edit this software to make it do what you need to do. Worth noticing, of course, that running it yourself takes a computer with 8 gigab gigabytes of memory and Docker, and it's slow without graphics card, about 5 to eight minutes to a clip. And I wonder all you people who are watching me What type of computer do you have? I'm

23:37wondering if maybe some of these are going to be out of reach for you or maybe you're sitting back and you're going, "Ha, this is nothing. I've got multiple computers like this. Let me know in the comments who you are." Okay. Um, all right. You see all these restrictions there. I don't think for most of it's going to be an issue. So, let's move on to the next one. This is Diad. It's going to replace Lovable or a lot of other tools like Lovable. I don't mean to pick on Lovable. They're just the number one uh web app maker that takes your English and turns it into

24:03code. But as popular as it is and it is beautiful and is very easy to use and it's the thing that got me into vibe coding burn you burn credits really fast. I started with that free plan and then I burned through that then I went into a paid plan then I burned through that then I went to the next plan and it just keeps taking up credits because you're kind of like locked into their ecosystem and when someone else is offering cheaper tokens that can do the same thing you can't really switch. you're in lovable ecosystem and you're just kind of paying them and trusting them and the

24:33price can get up there. 4,800 a year is not unusual even if you're paying for the monthly fees for it. So an engineer who left Google tried one of the popular cloud apps uh app builders and he said you know what I think I could do a better thing myself and make it for

24:47free. And that's what he ended up doing. He built an app builder that runs fully on your computer. That is what this is. It's the open- source builder. And you know what? I wonder even if this if this is an easy way for you to build and vibe code websites, but maybe even this is uh is a tool whose days are numbered because we're seeing more and more that claude code can do this stuff on its own. But this will allow you to do it without renting a builder. It allow you to bring in whatever brain you want, claude code, um whatever new thing has come out of China or whatever thing you

25:16happen to have on your computer, it just will work on it. And of course, you can use the free Gemini key here. It charges you no credits. It doesn't cost you anything. It just makes it work and you could host it on Burcell's free plan. That's what I was able to fact check. I use Cloudflare mostly. I think they work

25:31on Cloudflare also, but I use both. Okay. You just describe what you want in plain English and you get it. It's going to use for the database. Your Superbase, which I think is what lovable will do, too, or Neon. And one click, you pick the AI that you want, and you connect it. You run it securely. Uh security scan. I do like how Lovable catches security issues. I don't like that they won't let me publish something unless I clear up the security issues. sometimes just a quick little tool for myself and I don't care if the world just crashes into it and they still give me a hard

25:56time with it and this will just allow you to decide how you want to run things. It's free and of course the AI that writes the code is not always free but if you listen to this you know that the second thing I gave you today no maybe it was a third will actually get that away. What is it? It's the free LLM uh API. Next open manis 58,000 GitHub stars. It's the AI agent that does hold tasks and kind of steals its name from Manis. I think Manis, hugely popular AI agent that actually does tasks for you. The fact that it was like one of the first ones

26:32to not just answer your question, but to go do the thing for you was what made it amazing. The the team over at Facebook, the Meta team, bought it for $2 billion last December. Then China decided no, no deal. They unwound the whole thing. they started getting in the way and um and still people are having some issues with it. I know there are a lot of Manis lovers. If you are, let me know because

26:52I haven't done a single video on it. Maybe I need to. But I will say this that with with Manis a lot of people are complaining that failed tasks still burn through your credits, that you have unused monthly credits, that they disappear when your billing resets, that support again is an AI bot that refuses refunds that won't escalate to a human being, and you're just kind of stuck in their world. If it's good, you're happy, but you're still paying a lot. If it's not good, you're really miserable and you don't have anything you could do about it. Meanwhile, you're paying up to what 2,400 bucks a year for this and

27:18heavy users are even into the tens of thousands. So, when Manis launched in 2025, you were told that you needed a private invite and people were reselling it online and these researchers said, "Actually, I don't think we want that." And they created a project that just basically let you use it for free. They did it very quickly and that's how Open Manis was born. Anyone know why they're allowed to actually I keep meaning to look this up. How could they keep using the Manis name when they're competing

27:47with Manis? Okay, here's what you get. You get you get AI workers with credit. Here's the thing. You type what you want, the goal in English, and it plans the steps itself. It searches the web. It clicks through websites. It writes codes. It saves files. All the things that we're now loving in agents, these guys were first to do. You pick the AI that you want to come out with it. Not literally first. I don't know who literally was first, but you know it. Manis was one of the first ones to really popularize this. And so if you use Open Manis, you get that power and you get to bring in

28:15your Open AI uh connection, your Claude, your Gemini, etc. And you can edit the code yourself because it's open source. Here's what it ships with. Type the gold, get what you want. Browse real websites. It starts pulling information for you. You can start to use search on Google duck.go or BYU. It's people anyone using by do. All right. Worth noticing you need to pay for the AI model. It usually means an API key. I think that now OpenAI is getting better and better about letting us use subscription. I don't know if you're allowed to use it here, but the API keys do get expensive, which is why uh free

28:51LLM API is one of the first things I did. And the Gemini pass through uh the the path through Gemini are capped at the free tier or smaller models on your computer. All right, number 10. Oh, I need a link to this. Did I get a link to this? I I think I added here. Okay, here's what it is.

29:08Upscale. It's replacing Topaz Gigapixel. I don't imagine that a lot of you have this on your computer, but I do imagine that a lot of you are are using a subscription to this, but I do imagine a lot of you are in need of this. Topaz Gigapixel. It's the AI photo upscaler. You know, you take photos with these little tiny cameras. You don't end up with a really great shot. You want to upscale it. Their website is really good. Can I Can I just go to Topaz? I thought I put a link on it. Anyway, I'll have a link on it. You can see that her

29:40hair here on the left is kind of fuzzy because it's just a low res photo, but as you on their website start to move this little window around, you can see what it would look like if you scaled it up. And immediately you see this is the kind of problem that a lot of us have. If we go to most uh u agents, they could these days do it, but it's going to start to cost you money. Even if you're not using the Topaz Gigapixel, it's going to start costing you money. Here, you can do it in bulk, good quality on your computer, within your control. Um,

30:10Topaz, of course, stopped selling this outright. Now, you have to rent it. Some users say the upscale photos look painted. They don't look natural. Customers are asking for refunds that never came. And it's expensive at over 300 bucks a year. So, two open source fans started this thing that I just told you about. It's called Upscale in the summer of 2022. They built it for Linux first. Don't worry, it's still a it's now available for Mac and Windows. I think they even have a little snail on Windows because they're kind of making fun of Windows, which irritates me even though I'm a Mac person. Let's take a

30:39look here at their repo. Do they still have the snail? I'm going to do a search for Oh, here. Look [laughter] there. I do like personality. I wish they wouldn't put down the Windows people because those are my people, but uh but I do like that they have a personality and they put this the snail

30:54on there to show that it's slow there. Fair enough. Okay, but here's what you get. No meter, no monthly fee. You just drag one photo or a whole folder. If you have those old folders from like 10, 20 years ago of photos you took on the first um smartphones that came out or on the stuff that came out before those or maybe you have something from 50 years ago from your family um and you need a little bit of clarifying on those, this is the tool for you. You just upload the

31:20whole folder. Look at how easy this is. This is a pretty straightforward thing. It runs on your computer so your photos never leave which means if you have some kind of those photos that you're not supposed to share with the world. What have photos of those? Never mind. All right. What it comes with? It will make your photos four times bigger and sharper with AI or 16 times by running it twice. Upscale the whole folder or images on the go. You pick the built-in model for photos, digital art, or extra sharp detail. You add more free models uh that are made by the community. You select the exact output width and keep

31:51the photos, camera details. All right. You do need a graphic card um that supports Vulcan, Apple, Silicon, Mac, and most gaming PCs are fine. Many cheap laptops of course are not, but why would you expect it for something like this? There is the free uh face repair is only available on their cloud, which is the makers paid version for 25 bucks a month. All right, there it is. Top 10. If you like this, I've got the first thing that really went viral for me, which is a collection of 10 subscriptions that everyone has that you can like that eliminate using GitHub. And I've got a link for you

32:27right there. I'll see you in that video next.
