Hybrig — your rig, your render

Your rig. Your render.

AI video on the GPU you already own

Local by default · Cloud only when you need it

Dashboard
Prologue

The GPU under your desk can make AI video. Hybrig wires it up — and only reaches for the cloud when local can’t deliver.

The problem

You bought a $2,000 GPU. It plays games.

The rest of the day it sits at 2% while you pay $60+ a month to rent AI tools your machine could already run. The math is broken. Hybrig fixes it.

15M+RTX cards in the wild

Fifteen million RTX 30/40-series cards in consumer hands. Most of them idle twenty hours a day.

~1%ever run AI

Local AI is a 2–3 hour setup expedition. Almost nobody takes it. The 4090 stays a game card.

$60–100in monthly rent

Midjourney. ChatGPT. Runway. ElevenLabs. Enhancor. All paid monthly. All running on hardware you don’t own.

The pipeline

The whole pipeline. Split between your box and the cloud.

Draft on your rig for free. Burn cloud credits only where the cloud actually wins — voice cloning and the polished hero cut. Hybrig picks the lane for you.

No queue subscription. No infrastructure tax. The router runs on your machine.

Why Hybrig

Three things no SaaS does.

Beyond the dollars, the structure is different. SaaS gives you one engine, one queue, one privacy policy. Hybrig gives you a router, a stack, and a hard drive.

Render finishes — period

Hybrig auto-falls Wan 2.2 → Wan 2.1 → Hunyuan → LTX → cloud Seedance Fast as a last resort. If one model breaks at 2 a.m., the next one picks up the job. SaaS has one engine — when it’s down or moderates your script, you’re done.

10+ models, your call

Wan 2.1 / 2.2, Hunyuan, LTX, Flux dev / schnell, SD 3.5 Large, SDXL + Pony, SDXL + Illustrious, HiDream-I1, PixArt-Σ — all local. Pick the model per project. Synthesia ships one proprietary avatar engine. HeyGen Avatar IV looks like HeyGen Avatar IV. With Hybrig, the look is yours to choose.

Files don’t leave

Your face, voice clone, and script live on your hard drive. HeyGen’s privacy policy lets them train on non-enterprise input — opt-out is an email to support, not a toggle. With Hybrig, opt-out is the default state.

From one rig to a farm

Scale on your own metal.

Same install. Same UI. Same queue. Drop another worker on your second machine, point it at the first, and watch a batch render four-up across your fleet. No multi-seat licensing. No per-render billing. Your rigs, your throughput.

One creator on a 3080. A two-person agency with a 4090 and a 3080. A four-rig farm cranking client work overnight. Hybrig is the same product the whole way up — you scale by adding metal, not by upgrading your subscription tier.

LAN queue · workers auto-discover · render four-up overnight

Spec sheet

Read the spec sheet.

Pure-local stacks like ComfyUI are powerful and free — and punishing to set up. Cloud-only tools are polished, expensive, and opinionated about how you work. Hybrig is the middle path: a creator-first UI on top of your own hardware, with cloud as a tool, not a tax.

Origin

How this started.

“You bought a $2k GPU for games. Use it to make AI videos instead of paying subscriptions. Cloud when you need it, local by default.”

Hybrig started as a personal tool. James needed branded marketing videos and refused to pay $60/month for an opinionated cloud pipeline that couldn’t handle Seedance and ElevenLabs the way he wanted. The 4090 under his desk was idling. HeyGen had just open-sourced HyperFrames. The pieces were there.

The right product wasn’t another AI video SaaS — it was a router. Local by default. Cloud only when local can’t deliver. One UI, one queue, one bill that mostly says zero.

Portmanteau of Hybrid + Rig. Four letters. The whole architecture.

End card

Stop renting tools your computer can run.

Wire up your rig. Clone your voice. Render videos you actually own. The cloud is a fallback, not a landlord — and when it’s down, your queue keeps running.

Desktop app

One-click installer. Bundles the desktop shell + ComfyUI supervisor.
