Overview / Description
Pixlie is an AI video generation tool that lets creators direct AI-generated video shots with granular controls instead of a one-shot "type and pray" generator. Available on the web at pixlys.com and as a native iOS app (with an Android build rolling out on Google Play), it pairs text-to-video and image-to-video with a cloud render queue and a project shelf so you can browse your library and track jobs. Its differentiator is directorial control: an Identity Lock protocol trains a character face once and reuses it consistently across many shots, Motion Brush 2.0 sets deliberate pan, tilt, zoom, or orbit camera moves, video-to-video restyles source footage while preserving timing and blocking, and an audio-reactive mode shapes motion around a track. As an AI video generator, Pixlie targets creators, marketers, and indie filmmakers producing product spots, music visuals, character tests, and campaign openers. The free tier grants daily starter credits (one 5-second video and limited images per day) with 720p exports, and paid lanes add higher caps, 1080p/4K resolution, no watermark, priority queue, and API access. It was built solo by a Helsinki-based founder and reached #9 Product of the Day on Product Hunt in June 2026.
