BeatDesign
Your local Higgsfield alternative. Build image and video workflows on an infinite Canvas, finish them in a browser-native Editor, and let any MCP-capable Agent work in the same Project.

BeatDesign is an independent, open-source, local-first workspace for AI image and video creation. It is built for people who want the connected creative flow of tools such as Higgsfield, with a workspace they can run, inspect, and extend on their own machine.
Two creative modes, one Project
Infinite Canvas
Drop in prompts, images, video, and audio. Connect nodes, branch ideas, compare generations, reuse outputs, and keep the full visual workflow inside one project.
Video Editor
Turn Canvas results into a local timeline. Trim, split, move, mix audio, place and transform image overlays, style SRT captions, create alternate AI Takes, preview, and export MP4 in the browser.
Studio provides a focused generation surface. Assets keeps every imported and generated file available across Canvas, Editor, and MCP.
Why BeatDesign
- Local by default. Projects, media, Canvas state, timelines, and generation history stay in your local workspace.
- Canvas and Editor stay connected. A generated result becomes a reusable project Asset instead of disappearing inside one tool.
- Bring your own Agent. Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP hosts can inspect and update the same Project you see in the browser.
- Bring your own generation access. BeatAPI is the built-in provider. Local importing, arranging, editing, previewing, and exporting do not require an API key.
- Fork-friendly foundations. Provider adapters, project storage, and the command layer are explicit extension points.
