About Amuse

Amuse is an open-source application for running image, video, audio and text generation locally, published as source on GitHub under the Apache License 2.0. It bundles a video editor for generated or local content, image and video upscaling, image inpainting, selection and masking tools for image editing, feature extraction, video interpolation, voice generation and Whisper speech recognition, plus a media gallery for organising output.

It reads Safetensors, GGUF and ONNX model formats and lists pipelines for image, video, audio and text models, along with LoRA and ControlNet support. GPU acceleration is available through CUDA for Nvidia cards and Vulkan for AMD, Nvidia and Intel hardware, but actual compatibility and performance depend on the GPU model, driver version, operating system and backend used. Building from source requires .NET 10 and Visual Studio; compiled binaries fall under the separate Amuse 2.0 License rather than Apache 2.0 because bundled third-party software carries its own terms.

Key features

  • CUDA and Vulkan GPU backends for Nvidia, AMD and Intel hardware
  • Video editor for generated or locally stored content
  • Image and video upscaling for static and moving media
  • Image inpainting to remove objects or fill areas
  • Advanced image editing with selection and masking tools
  • Voice generation, Whisper speech recognition and feature extraction
Best for: Developers and technically comfortable users with a suitable GPU who want to build and run image, video, audio and text generation locally from source.
Good for
  • Source code is open and licensed under Apache License 2.0
  • Runs generation workflows locally rather than through a hosted service
  • Multiple GPU backends, including Vulkan for systems without CUDA or ROCm
Watch out for
  • Building from source requires .NET 10 and Visual Studio with the .NET desktop development workload
  • CUDA 13.0 needs Nvidia driver 580.65 or later; Pascal and Maxwell are not recommended
  • Compiled binaries are covered by the Amuse 2.0 License, not Apache 2.0, due to bundled third-party software

Amuse FAQ

Which GPU backends does Amuse support?
Amuse provides CUDA for Nvidia GPUs and Vulkan for AMD, Nvidia and Intel hardware. Vulkan works without CUDA or ROCm, though support depends on the installed GPU and Vulkan driver. CUDA 13.0 requires Nvidia driver version 580.65 or later.
What is needed to build and run Amuse from source?
Amuse is built on .NET 10 and developed in Visual Studio. The documented steps are installing Visual Studio 2026 with the .NET desktop development workload, cloning the repository, opening the .sln solution, restoring NuGet packages, building the solution, and running Amuse.exe. On Windows 11, environment creation may require running as administrator.
How is Amuse licensed?
The source is licensed under the Apache License 2.0. Compiled binaries are licensed under the Amuse 2.0 License because of bundled third-party software and dependencies, which may be subject to their own licensing requirements.
