Claim

Beeble is a video-to-VFX platform for AI relighting, compositing, rotoscoping, and pass generation. It offers cloud tools for filmmakers and VFX teams, plus a separate local desktop app for offline work on Windows and Linux.

Beeble

Overview

Beeble is a video-to-VFX platform for AI relighting, compositing, rotoscoping, and pass generation. The site positions it for filmmakers, VFX artists, and production teams that want to direct a shot through a visual pipeline rather than generate a clip in isolation.

The cloud product bundles Canvas, SwitchX, Background Remover, VFX Pass Generator, and 3D Relight. Beeble Studio is a separate local desktop app that runs offline on Windows and Linux and keeps processing on your own GPU.

Canvas lets users build node graphs that combine native Beeble tools and external models. SwitchX focuses on controlled video-to-video edits, while the pro tools handle mattes, PBR passes, and relighting for downstream compositing and virtual production workflows.

Core capabilities

Node-based compositing

Canvas combines generation and compositing inside a single node graph, so shots can move from input to final output without stitching together separate apps.

Native and external model support

Canvas can use native Beeble tools alongside external models such as Seedance, Kling, Nano Banana, Depth Anything, and Qwen, letting teams keep multiple steps in one graph.

Controlled video-to-video editing

SwitchX changes backgrounds, wardrobe, scenes, lighting, and style while keeping the source shape, motion, and expression locked to the original footage.

Background removal and matte export

Background Remover provides studio-grade rotoscoping for images and video, with RGBA or alpha output and export formats such as MOV and PNG sequence.

PBR pass generation

VFX Pass Generator turns footage into a relightable 3D asset and outputs passes such as normal, basecolor, roughness, metallic, specular, alpha, and depth.

Real-time 3D relighting

3D Relight is a real-time relighting editor for working directly on generated passes, with support for classic lighting models, video-driven lighting, and custom HDRI, models, splats, and backdrops.

Practical use cases

  • Build a shot pipeline in one place

    Use Canvas when you need to generate shots, composite them, and keep the whole pipeline editable in one graph instead of moving between apps.

  • Restyle footage without losing the shot

    Use SwitchX when you want to change a scene’s look while preserving the original performance, motion, and subject shape in the source footage.

  • Create rotoscoped mattes quickly

    Use Background Remover when you need a clean matte or background-free source for compositing, previews, or handoff to another stage of production.

  • Prepare footage for VFX pass workflows

    Use VFX Pass Generator when a shot needs relightable outputs for downstream compositing, 3D relighting, or plugin-based work in DCC tools.

  • Work locally without cloud processing

    Use Beeble Studio when you need offline processing on your own machine and want to keep work local on Windows or Linux.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Combines generation, compositing, rotoscoping, and relighting in one product family.
  • Canvas keeps the pipeline editable by letting users branch, compare, and reuse node graphs.
  • SwitchX preserves key aspects of the source shot while changing selected scene elements.
  • Background Remover and VFX Pass Generator provide exportable outputs for downstream VFX work.
  • Beeble Studio offers an offline option for users who want local processing on Windows or Linux.

Cons

  • The pricing page shows feature and usage differences by plan, so some capabilities are cloud-only and some limits depend on the selected tier.
  • Beeble Studio is local and offline, but cloud-specific tools such as Canvas, SwitchX, and Background Remover are not available there.
  • The site does not clearly present API access or broad integration details in the available public pages.

FAQ

What is included in a Beeble Cloud subscription?

Beeble Cloud includes Canvas, SwitchX, Background Remover, VFX Pass Generator, and 3D Relight. The pricing page also says the cloud plans include access to image and video models, with commercial use included.

Is Beeble Studio part of the cloud plans?

The pricing page treats Beeble Studio as a separate product from Beeble Cloud. The home page describes Beeble Studio as a local desktop app that runs on your own machine.

Does Beeble Cloud include API access?

The pricing page does not show API access in the plan summary and lists a question about API access in its FAQ section, so the site does not clearly present API access as included.

What is Canvas used for?

Canvas is Beeble’s node-based AI compositor. It combines native tools such as SwitchX, SwitchLight, and AI rotoscoping with external models in one graph so you can generate, composite, and branch variations without switching apps.

What does SwitchX change in a shot?

SwitchX is a video-to-video tool for changing backgrounds, lighting, styles, and other scene elements while keeping the original shape, motion, and expression locked. The site says masking happens directly in the editor.
