Get started
Where to begin with Nodaro, by goal. Make videos in the editor, build with the Copilot, drive Nodaro from an AI assistant, build on the API, or self-host it.
Get started shows the fastest path to what you want to do with Nodaro. Nodaro is a visual workflow editor for AI video, image, audio and text: you connect nodes on a canvas, and Nodaro runs them in order. Choose your goal below: the editor, the Copilot, an AI assistant, code, or your own server.
Make videos and images in the editor
The editor is where most people start. Sign in to Nodaro Cloud, copy a template or a tutorial, and run it with the free credits of a new account. Then build your own workflow from an empty canvas, one node at a time.
Quickstart
Sign in, copy a template, run it and download the result.
Build your first workflow
A prompt, an image, a video and a voiceover, step by step.
Tour of the editor
The home screen, the canvas, the node picker, the settings panel and runs.
Tutorials and templates
Learn from guided workflows, and copy ready-made ones for free.
Build with the Copilot
On Nodaro Cloud, the Copilot builds a workflow from a description. You describe what you want, and it adds and connects the nodes while you watch. It proposes a run with its credit estimate, and it runs nothing without your OK.
Drive Nodaro from an AI assistant
Nodaro has an MCP server. Through it, assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and VS Code can create images, videos and audio, build workflows and run them for you, with your Nodaro credits.
AI agents (MCP)
What an assistant can do with Nodaro, and how it works.
Connect a client
Step-by-step setup for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other clients.
Build on the API
Developers reach the same workflows, nodes and models from code. The REST API runs workflows and single nodes, the TypeScript SDK wraps the API, and the CLI works from a terminal and in scripts.
