24 alternatives to I built an AI tool to generates image slideshows and UGC-style videos

Hi HN, I built Lungo, a tool that generates image-based slideshows and UGC-style videos using AI. The system creates visuals and assembles them into structured, shareable content based on a text prompt. What it does: • Generates images from prompts using a custom diffusion model • Constructs slideshows or short-form videos with transitions and optional voiceover • Handles layout, text generation, and multi-language support • Outputs are consistent in resolution and format, ready for distribution I built with a React, firebase, OpenAI, Runway and ffmpeg. Feedback and questions welcome.

    Hi HN, I'm Heshan, founder of X-Pilot. We're building an AI Video Generator for online courses and educational content. Unlike most text-to-video generator that render videos directly from models (which often produce random stock footage unrelated to the actual content), we take a code-first approach: generate editable code layers, let users verify/refine them, then render to video. The Problem We're Solving Most AI video generators treat "education" and "marketing" the same—they optimize for "looks good" rather than "logically accurate." When you feed a technical tutorial or course…

    Hi HN — I’m an indie maker building Seedance AI. It helps people create short videos (and images) from text prompts and reference photos. I tried to keep it simple: fast templates, predictable credit pricing, and downloadable results. It’s still early, and I know there are rough edges. I’d really appreciate honest feedback on what feels useful, what feels confusing, and what I should improve first. Happy to answer technical or product questions.

    I had 2 weeks off from work and wanted a pet project before heading back. With GPT and Generative AI in the news, I decided to chain multiple Al products together to build something really cool. I set my end goal to be: prompt-to-storyboard (aka fun videos generated purely via generative AI). There exists some prompt-to-video products, but I wanted to tell stories with audio as well. The end product takes an initial prompt and produces a series of images and audio files, which I then combine (with subtitles) into the final video. To showcase videos, there is a basic upvote/downvote…

    Hey HN! Sophia here from Glato AI. For the last 3 months, we've been heads down building a cutting-edge short video ads generator. We got the idea because creating UGC shorts for user acquisition is a massive pain. Hiring creators costs $100+ per vid and takes forever. So we thought, why not use AI to automate this? That's where Glato AI comes in - it's one of the most advanced AI workflows we've built. Just feed it a product URL and it'll analyze the details, find related media, understand what's being shown, write a script, create an expressive avatar, lay out each scene with b-roll and…

    Hey HN, I built a web tool that wraps the latest AI image generation models with a conversational interface. The main idea is you can iterate on images through natural dialogue instead of rewriting prompts from scratch each time. Key features I focused on: - Multi-turn editing (the AI remembers previous context) - Character/style consistency across multiple images - Multi-image fusion Not affiliated with OpenAI – the name is just a playful nod. Would love feedback from this community, especially on the UX and what features would be useful for technical users. Try it:…

    Hey HN, I built Blooming, a visual AI workspace where you drag-and-drop “nodes” (text, image, video) onto a whiteboard and chain AI text, image and video models together. It's kinda like n8n but for AI art: • Node-based canvas • Multi-model switching (test different models side by side and iterate multiple versions) • Pipe text or image output to other nodes to refine prompts, turn them into videos or explain images Demo link: https://youtu.be/TdFzhxeRFNg I’d love your feedback on UI clarity, performance, and which models to integrate next. What’s confusing or missing for AI…

    Hi HN, I'm the maker. I built this because I believe the biggest problem with most AI image tools is that they're a "black box." You get what the AI gives you, and if it's 90% right, you're stuck. My goal was to combine AI's speed with a creator's need for control. The core feature is the live editor that gives you the final say on everything. Under the hood, the workflow is designed to give you a better starting point than a simple text-to-image call. Here’s how it works: It first uses the YouTube API to find top-performing thumbnails for your topic. A Gemini model then analyzes those…

For high-end, cinematic results, we support top-tier models like VEO 3.1 and Sora 2. At the same time, we know those models can be expensive. To keep it accessible and reliable for more casual or…
