● live — three tools · all free · nothing uploads
Built by one producer, for the rest of us
Thumbnails, videos, titles — the hours type-beat channels eat every week, done in your browser in seconds. Free, from one producer to another. Nothing uploads anywhere.
A folder of raw pics in — every one back as a 1920×1080 black-bars YouTube thumbnail, zipped, in ~8 seconds.
Beats and thumbnails in, finished uploadable videos out — rendered right in the browser while you make the next one.
Titles, descriptions and tags written for type-beat uploads — the twenty minutes after the beat is done, gone.
The part you thought was the job
Running channels means the same manual loop every week — crop the pics, render the videos, write the titles. None of it is why you started. Each tool below deletes one loop, start to finish.

“What's good, fam. I've made beats for fourteen years — a few went gold and platinum along the way, 73M streams, one landed with Davido — and I still wasn't going to crop 28 pics by hand every week. So I built the things that do it, and they're yours. Spend the time louder.”
