not yet, but it is coming. It currently uses the screen capture libraries and video encoder in macos, but I am working on adding Windows equivalents at the moment.
Awesome to have a open model that can compete, but damn it would be so much better if you could run it locally. Otherwise, it's almost so difficult to run (e.g. self host) that it's just way more convenient to pay OpenAI, Claude, etc
Yes, that's exactly right. All your images are processed locally and don't leave your device. They are all processed in the web browser with javascript and your dev tools like you say should show that.
Thanks for sharing! Both the link and the story. As a University student and someone that has here also made a photomosaic app, that is super relatable.
That's good to know about the pricing. It's free for now. Honestly didn't expect this level of interest (there's 307 people on the site right now according to analytics).
With that interest, I may add some plans - potentially for the commercial use in particular
I could. That sounds like a great idea! Was thinking about uneven sized tiles. I just tried to make the basic photo mosaic with even sized tiles for now
If you adjust the overlay alpha to 0% you'll see it does use the submitted photos as tiles.
Click the "Create Mosaic" button and you should see it arrange the tiles live in the best possible way to reproduce the image. The overlay is a common technique people use to make the main image more visible. It's a personal preference thing.
Generally, the more diverse or colours you select for your tile images, the more clear and "good" the main mosaic image will be
