Fineframe

Download Fineframe

Download the installer and there is nothing else to set up: no Node, no Python, no command line. The beta is free; sign in with a free account.

macOS

Needs Apple silicon (M1 or later)

Download macOS

Installer: Fineframe-mac-arm64.dmg

  1. Open the DMG and drag Fineframe into Applications.
  2. The app is not yet signed with an Apple Developer ID, so the first time you open it, macOS says it cannot check the app for malicious software. Choose Done.
  3. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll to Security and choose Open Anyway next to the message about Fineframe, then confirm with your password. After that it opens normally.
  4. Macs with an Intel processor are not supported: the libraries the analysis runs on no longer publish builds for them.

Windows

Windows 10 or 11 (x64)

Download Windows

Installer: Fineframe-win-x64.exe

  1. Open the installer. It installs Fineframe for your user alone, with no administrator needed, and opens it.
  2. The installer is not yet signed, so Microsoft Defender SmartScreen may say “Windows protected your PC”. Choose More info, check that the app is Fineframe, then choose Run anyway.

Linux

Linux (x86-64)

Download Linux

Installer: Fineframe-linux-x86_64.AppImage

  1. Make the AppImage executable with chmod +x Fineframe-*.AppImage, then run it.
  2. AppImages need FUSE 2: on Ubuntu 24.04, sudo apt install libfuse2t64.

The first time it opens

  1. Sign in to your Fineframe account in your browser. It is free during the beta.
  2. Paste your Anthropic API key, and the app checks it.
  3. Meanwhile the app installs its analysis once, about 2 GB of Python and PyTorch, with the progress in the window.
  4. Your first edit downloads the rest, each with its own progress bar: the speech model, FFmpeg, the effects renderer, and yt-dlp for the first link you import.
  5. With less than 12 GB of memory, speech is transcribed on OpenRouter instead, with your OpenRouter API key, for about US$0.03 an hour of footage. The app tells you, and you can choose either way.

Updates and checksums

  • On Windows and Linux the app updates itself: it downloads a new version in the background and installs it when you restart or quit. On a Mac it tells you when a new version is out, with its download: install it over the old one. Your keys and downloads stay either way.
  • The app tells you when a new version is out, with its download: install it over the old one. Your keys and downloads stay.

  • SHA256SUMS lists each installer’s SHA-256, so you can check the one you downloaded.
