Fuze is a local production suite for macOS and Windows designed to help you manage creative projects, particularly those built with AI. It was developed by professionals with over 20 years of experience in the VFX and animation industry, with an extensive background across film and advertising.
Because Fuze runs locally, all your content lives on your hard drive or your network. Nothing is stored online unless you actively configure it that way.* You own everything you create, with no dependency on any third party.
*Generation providers may briefly retain outputs on their own servers as part of normal processing. Check each provider's current retention policy directly if this matters for your work.
Fuze was built out of direct frustration with the spiralling costs and operational chaos that come with relying on online platforms.
To generate content, Fuze connects to your own API keys from Fal.ai, Kie.ai or Google. Using your own API means lower costs from day one, without the inflated pricing of credit-based platforms.

No. Fuze is not a platform that sells you credits. Fuze is a project manager and generation environment that connects to your own API keys from providers like Fal.ai, Kie.ai or Google Cloud. To generate content you will need an API key from a supported provider and credit with that provider. This also means your generations are never routed through a third party.
Fuze installs like any other desktop application. On macOS, open the signed .dmg and drag Fuze into your Applications folder. On Windows, run the signed installer and it sets itself up on your machine like any other program. Both versions are code signed, so you won't see unsigned app warnings on either platform.
An API key is a credential given to you by a generation provider like Fal.ai, kie.ai or Google Cloud. It identifies you as a client, so when Fuze generates an image or video, the provider knows who made the request and bills your account directly.
This is actually an advantage. Using Fuze with your own API keys is significantly cheaper than platforms that sell credits on top of provider costs. In most cases you will spend 20% less or more compared to credit-based platforms, and you only pay for what you actually generate.
There are two moments where data leaves your machine.
When you get access to Fuze, your name and email are stored to generate your license key. Beyond that, the Fuze team never collects or accesses anything about your activity inside the software.
When you generate content, such as images, video, audio or 3D, your prompt and any reference images you have added are sent to the provider you have configured (Fal.ai or Google Cloud). That data goes directly from your machine to the provider. Fuze is not in the middle.
If you have an active subscription, you can manage or cancel it from your customer portal. You just need the email you used when you subscribed. For team licenses set up through a demo or pilot, write to us directly and we'll handle it with you.
We also offer a 24-hour refund window from the moment you subscribe. If you run into any problem or decide Fuze is not for you, write to us and we will refund your subscription in full, no questions asked.
