What you can do with it

  • Generate short videos from a text prompt, or from first and last frames
  • Guide a video with image, video or audio references and community LoRAs
  • Preview at half resolution first, then finish only the clips you like

Make money with it

Offer a short-form AI video service to local businesses, such as social clips or product teasers, using your own hardware so there are no per-clip generation costs.

An idea, not financial advice. Check the licence before charging for anything built on it.

Ways a business could use it

  • Produce short social media and advert clips in-house instead of paying for a subscription video service
  • Create product teasers and b-roll for clients without commissioning stock footage or filming

Can you use it commercially?

Free to use, change and sell, including in paid products. Keep the copyright notice.

Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.

Getting it running

Download the Windows, macOS or Linux launcher, point it at a ComfyUI folder or install a new one, and it downloads the models and opens ComfyUI in your browser.

Follow the official instructions in the project README.

Things to check

  • Needs a capable graphics card (8 GB VRAM minimum) and 16 GB RAM; generation can be slow
  • Mac version is an unnotarised preview that macOS blocks on first open
  • Large model downloads required
  • Security software may flag or quarantine the launcher
  • Rapidly changing project with frequent releases
