DramaPie Box v1.0.0

DESKTOP + ANDROID · v1.0.0

Your Colab. Your studio.

DramaPie Box turns your own Google Colab GPU into a private AI video studio — an infinite canvas, an OpenAI-compatible local API, and every frame stays on your machine.

  • Free local mode
  • Apple-notarized macOS build
  • Your media never leaves your machine

DramaPie Box on macOS — control panel and canvas in one window.

01 — One box

Three surfaces. One quiet workspace.

A control room for your GPU, a canvas for the work, and a local API for everything else.

The infinite canvas

Prompt, connect and recompose on an endless board. The canvas ships inside the app, so it opens even when the network doesn't.

A local OpenAI API

A real /v1 endpoint on loopback. Point any OpenAI-compatible client at it and queue video jobs on your own GPU.

Your Colab machine

DramaPie Box assigns a GPU, uploads the runtime, waits for the service and stops the machine when it goes idle.

02 — Local first

The studio stays on your machine.

Your Google token never leaves the system keychain. Prompts and clips are handled by the gateway running on your own computer. Nothing is routed through a DramaPie server unless you deliberately switch to cloud mode.

  • Google OAuth with PKCE; the refresh token lives in Keychain or Keystore.
  • The gateway binds to loopback by default. LAN sharing is opt-in and uses a separate token.
  • Idle auto-stop after 10 minutes, so you don't burn Colab compute by accident.
  • Built-in logs with tokens and keys redacted before they are shown.

03 — First run

Sign in. Start. Make something.

The first boot takes about 45–90 seconds. After that it is one click.

  1. 01

    Sign in with Google

    One consent screen connects your account and provisions a canvas key. No password to invent.

  2. 02

    Start your Colab

    The app assigns a GPU, uploads the video runtime and waits until the local service is serving.

  3. 03

    Open the canvas

    Address and key are already filled in. Prompt, generate, download — the clip comes back through your own /v1.

GPU availability depends on your Colab plan and current capacity. The app falls back automatically.

04 — Inside

Real screens, not renders.

Captured from the shipping build on macOS and Android.

06 — Questions

Before you download.

Is DramaPie Box free?

The app is free. Local generation uses your own Google Colab compute, so there is no DramaPie subscription. Cloud mode spends your DramaPie points instead.

Do I need Colab Pro or Ultra?

A Google account with Colab access is enough to sign in. Faster GPUs such as G4 or A100 depend on your Colab plan and live capacity; the app falls back to L4 or T4 when it can't get one.

Where are my videos stored?

On your machine and inside the canvas. Finished clips are downloaded through the local API — they are not uploaded to us.

Does it work offline?

The canvas opens offline because it is bundled. New generations need Colab, so an internet connection is required to make clips.

Why does macOS warn me?

It shouldn't. The DMG is signed with a Developer ID certificate and notarized by Apple. If Gatekeeper still complains, re-download the file and open the app from Applications.

Why does Windows show SmartScreen?

The Windows build is not code-signed yet. Choose “More info” → “Run anyway”, or build from source. WebView2 is required and is already present on most Windows 10/11 machines.

Can I share the GPU with my LAN?

Yes. Turn on LAN sharing and the app shows a local address plus a QR code. Only /v1 is exposed, protected by a separate token you can reset.

Which languages are supported?

English and Chinese. The app follows your system language on first launch and can be switched from the menu at any time.
