artcraft
by storytold
ArtCraft is a desktop app for making AI images and video, where you build a scene in 2D or 3D before generating the result. It is meant for artists, designers and filmmakers who want more control over composition, characters and camera placement than a text prompt alone gives.

Things to check
- Generation appears to rely on third-party or hosted AI models, which may need paid accounts or credits
- The README text provided is cut off, so the full model list and pricing are unclear
- Output rights depend on the terms of each AI model provider
