What is Martini?
Short answer
Martini is an AI-powered creative canvas where you chain image, video, audio, and text generation across many models in one workspace. Each step on the canvas is a node — you connect them to build a workflow, and Martini routes each node to the right model provider while handling credits, queues, and storage.
A canvas, not a chat box
Most AI tools give you a single chat input or a single generation form. Martini gives you a 2D canvas. Drop an Image node here, a Video node next to it, an Audio node below, a Text node above. Connect them and a workflow emerges — a reference image feeds a video model, the video output feeds a lip-sync, the lip-sync output joins a multi-shot timeline, and so on. The canvas keeps every step visible so you can see, edit, and re-run any part of the pipeline without rebuilding from scratch.
The advantage is composability. A creative brief that needs three images, a 6-second video, a voiceover, and a final cut becomes a single canvas instead of five separate tabs. When the client asks for a revision, you change one node, and the downstream steps re-run from that point. The canvas becomes the artifact — not just the outputs.
Multi-model, multi-provider routing
Martini is not married to one model. The platform integrates dozens of image, video, audio, and text models from providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, FAL, Runway, Kling, Hailuo, ElevenLabs, and Suno. Each node has a model picker so you can pick the right tool for the job — a fast cheap iteration model for drafts, a flagship cinematic model for the final cut, a specialized character-consistency model for narrative work.
Behind the canvas, Martini handles the orchestration: API calls, credit accounting, queue management for long-running video jobs, webhook callbacks, retries on transient failures, and refunds on provider-side errors. You see the result on the canvas; the plumbing is invisible.
What you can build
Common Martini workflows include: image-to-video clips for social and ads, multi-shot storyboards with character consistency, voiceover-driven explainers with lip-sync, music tracks generated from text and paired to visuals, scripted narrative shorts with text-to-image-to-video pipelines, and product photography variants with style transfer. Anything that combines two or more generation types fits the canvas model better than a single-model tool.
Teams use workspaces to share canvases, pool credits, and keep client work organized. Solo creators use personal projects to iterate quickly. Enterprise teams use the platform with SSO, audit logs, and custom credit pools for production workflows at scale.
How to start
Sign up, create your first project, and drag a node onto the empty canvas. Pick a model from the dropdown, write a prompt, and click Run. The output appears on the node within seconds (image) or minutes (video). Connect that output to another node and chain a second step. There is no scripting required — the canvas is the interface.
The free plan lets you evaluate the platform with a small monthly credit allowance. Paid plans unlock commercial use, more credits, more models, and higher resolutions. See the team-plans article for workspace billing options if you are evaluating Martini for a team.
Examples
- Chain a text prompt into an image, then animate the image into a 5-second video clip.
- Generate three style variants of a product photo, pick one, and run it through a background-removal node.
- Build a multi-shot storyboard with character consistency by routing through Vidu or Kling.
- Pair a generated voiceover with a lip-sync model so an avatar speaks the script.
- Connect an image node to a video node to a music node and assemble a 30-second social cut.
Edge cases
- The canvas is infinite — large workflows scroll and zoom, and groups can be collapsed.
- Workspace canvases are shared by default with workspace members; personal canvases are private.
- Each node shows its model and credit cost so you can estimate spend before clicking Run.
- Failed generations on one node do not break the rest of the canvas — fix and re-run that node only.
What to do next
- Sign up and create a project to drop your first node onto the canvas.
