# Origami AI: Browser-Based AI Studio for Video Creation

> Origami AI turns PDFs into narrated videos, generates short-form content, and runs powerful AI entirely in your browser — no uploads, no subscription.

Origami AI is a full-featured AI studio that runs entirely in your browser. Using WebGPU-accelerated local AI, you can transform PDF slide decks into professional narrated videos, generate short-form content from a single topic, record your screen with smart auto-zoom, and chat with AI models — all without sending your data to the cloud.

## How It Works

Origami AI uses [WebGPU](https://gpuweb.github.io/) to run AI models directly on your device's GPU. Scripts are generated by local [WebLLM](https://webllm.mlc.ai/) models (or your configured cloud API), speech is synthesized by [Kokoro.js](https://huggingface.co/onnx-community/Kokoro-82M-v1.0), and video is composed by [FFmpeg.wasm](https://ffmpegwasm.netlify.app/) — all without leaving your browser tab.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the app">
    Visit [origami.techmitten.com](https://origami.techmitten.com/) — no sign-up required to start.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose your tool">
    Pick PDF to Video, Shorts Generator, Screen Recording, AI Assistant, Voice Studio, or File Studio from the navigation menu.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Download AI models (first time only)">
    On first use, Origami AI downloads a lightweight AI model to your browser cache. This takes a few minutes but only happens once.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create and export">
    Generate, preview, and export your content directly to your device — nothing is uploaded.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Origami AI works best in **Chrome or Edge 113+** where WebGPU is fully supported. See [Requirements](/requirements) for browser compatibility details.
