WaveSpeed

WaveSpeed is a free and open-source app that allows you to use hundreds of different AI models from your Mac to generate images and videos in a matter of seconds. And all of this in a very convenient way. Convert a static image into a video, generate an image from text alone, swap the faces of several people within a video, and much more,

First, enter your API Key

Although some tools are completely free of charge, to use all the available AI models, you will need to enter your API Key. To do this, just open the Options menu and copy your WaveSpeed API Key into the corresponding field. Obtaining this key is very easy. All you have to do is create a free WaveSpeed account (you can use social login via Google), then visit the API Keys section within your user profile. That's where you'll find everything you need to get started.

Video and image generation on macOS

Once you've entered your API Key, you will be able to start using all the models available within the app. On the main tab, you can check out the featured models, generally the most popular ones of the moment, including models such as Google's Nano Banana 2 and Nano Banana Pro, or Bytedance's Seedream. In any case, you will be able to manually search for any model you want to use, with the ability to filter by functionality, name, or even price.

Many free tools at your disposal

Although you need credits to use the various AI models, WaveSpeed also includes a selection of 100% free tools that you can use from your Mac. Here you will find tools that improve the quality of a video or a photo, remove the background from an image, erase elements within a photo, or convert any multimedia file to another format. All these tools are completely free.

My thoughts on WaveSpeed

Lately, there has been more and more software for generating images and videos with AI on Mac, but few tools are as complete as WaveSpeed. The best part is not just that the app allows you to use hundreds of different models, but that it also very accessible. Even if you have never used a generative AI tool before, you can easily create an image or video in less than a minute.

The best and worst of WaveSpeed

• What I like most about WaveSpeed is that it is truly very intuitive. Similar tools often require tutorials or complex configurations, but here practically everything is just a click away.

• What I like least about WaveSpeed is that your initial credit balance can run out quite quickly when you start testing more advanced models or generating long videos.
