Im tired of infinite canvas startups.
Im tired of generative video snake oil providers.
Im tired of hype for hyperframes, as html and playwright is a dumb long term solution for video rendering.
So I decided to build Raea. Open source. Free for everyone.
Faster and more capable than hyperframes or remotion. (10-20x faster with real footage and complex scenes).
And it renders without a browser….
Capable of more than just video. It’s built on @BevyEngine so it’s highly capable at producing 3D art, shaders and games.
It’s also built on Blitz Dom @dioxuslabs , and a bridge between the page and the 3d world behind it allows you and your agent to write everything in typescript and react… without a browser.
This video below was made entirely with Claude, Raea, and a weekend. I never had more fun playing and toying with creative work than I did making this.
But to be honest, that’s not where I’m stopping. I want Raea to be an engine that correctly empowers creatives and agents, while not cognitively offloading the parts that make your work unique.
I’m excited to continue working on this project as long as I can, and always open to feedback!

How do I say it louder?
Raea is the solution for faster rendering speeds. Real creators can’t use hyperframes or remotion for real creative.
Raea is completely open source and built for local rendering speeds while remaining react/typescript focused.
1.8k stars now and rising.

Dear Startup Founders of San Francisco.
Request for a startup:
a rendering platform ONLY for video editing. Figure out the fastest way to render videos and let claude and codex plug into it, and it renders any type of video and returns a download link with the video. AS FAST AS POSSIBLE.
I have a theory that in one year most video editing software will be bloat. And that the best editor will be claude code and codex editing the files headless. These videos will need to be rendered somehow. The better the models get the more aspirational people will get with their videos.
Creating an 20 minute video that renders in 8k on blender at the highest quality should be no problem.
There are alot of cloud providers that technically offer this but they are sloppy for this use case, and drain tokens unnecessarily.

THIS FREE ENGINE RENDERS AI VIDEO UP TO 20x FASTER THAN REMOTION, AND IT NEVER OPENS A BROWSER
Raea skips the browser and talks to your GPU directly.
→ write scenes in TypeScript + React
→ renders locally via Rust and Bevy
→ makes 3D scenes, games, music and sound effects
→ Claude Code can write it, render it, check the result and fix it
Free, on macOS, Linux and Windows.
How long does your video render take right now?

One thing i think about often, CC0 was invented and published in 2009.
That is exemplary of just how nubile and immature IP law is in the internet age.
We needed government oversight on AI and IP rights years ago, and are only further drifting away from protecting the rights of creative work.
As a neurodivergent person, coding agents have changed my life and really fit well with my learning style.
From my perspective, it feels like access to general intelligence is as powerful to the average person as having access to the internet.
But as with the internet, the battle is between the rights of people versus infrastructure providers and corporations that lobby congress and entrench themselves with regulatory capture.

Me: "use /raea to create 2 CPG brands from scratch and two ads..."
I got these two ads in an hour. Fully modeled cpg products, ads, logos, packaging. Music was entirely composed with raea midi.
You can truly @render_anything.

I need people to understand how insane this is.
We’re talking about technology competing with tools backed by companies with access to substantial capital, engineering teams, and resources.
Meanwhile, my fiancé @shinyobjectz_ built Raea, an open-source rendering engine, with ZERO funding, ZERO employees, and a team of ONE.
3.4 seconds vs. 23.3 seconds. Same prompt. Same export conditions.
And the only “investor” behind him this past year? Me. 🥹
I became our sole income provider so he could go all in on AI engineering, data science, and building something he believed should exist.
No VC funding. No multimillion-dollar budget. Just an absurdly talented engineer with the freedom to build.
When I say he’s my greatest investment, I mean it. 😤❤️
Excited to launch the Raea community! Join us to share ya work, stay updated, and hang with myself and other AI creatives! Also make sure to follow the project on

My take: faster render times means more iterations and revisions. That time compounds quickly over the course of longer projects.
Same prompt for both.
“Create a 10-second animated short called Moon-O-Matic. A vending machine dispenses the moon. Come up with your own artwork, animation, and ending.”
Separate matched export on Windows took 3.4s in Raea and 23.3s in HyperFrames. Which cut would you keep?

PM asked for a video of what we'd built so far.
So I made a skill for it on top of raea: create-video-for
It asks about sound and length, storyboards it, records the real app, cuts it in raea and checks every frame before you see it.
It runs on all OS not just mac, link 👇
