FAIR-CODE
The fair-code AI video workflow editor you can run yourself
$ git clone nodaroai/app.nodaro.ai
The entire platform is source-available on GitHub — read it, run it, extend it. Deploy on your own infrastructure with your own API keys, or let the cloud version do the hosting.
WHAT YOU GET
The whole product, on your own server
The full editor and API
The same canvas, nodes, apps and REST API as Nodaro Cloud, served from your own domain.
Everything in one stack
One Docker Compose file starts Nodaro with its own database, sign-in, storage and job queues. Your media stays on your disk.
No credits, no watermark
The Community Edition has no credits, no Nodaro fees and no watermark. You pay your model providers directly.
Your keys, or Nodaro Cloud
Add keys for KIE.ai, Replicate, Anthropic, Gemini or ElevenLabs, or connect the install to a Nodaro Cloud account to run the standard models without keys of your own.
A health screen and backups
/setup shows the state of the database, Redis, storage, the encryption key and your provider keys, without a sign-in. One script backs up the database, the media, the encryption key and your .env.

QUESTIONS
Before you clone
Is Nodaro open source?
Nodaro is fair-code and source-available, under the Nodaro Sustainable Use License. You can read, run, modify and self-host the code, with limits on production use by larger organizations and on offering it to others as a service.
Can my company self-host Nodaro for free?
For internal business use, if your organization has no more than 3 people in all, counting founders, employees and contractors. Development, testing and evaluation are free at any size. Production use by a larger organization needs a commercial license.
Do I need API keys?
Not to install it. To generate images, video and audio, add your own model provider keys, or connect the install to a Nodaro Cloud account.
What does a self-hosted install not have?
Story → Video and 3D Render Pro run only on Nodaro Cloud. The Nodaro-exclusive nodes, such as Generate Video Pro, run on your install through a Nodaro Cloud connection.
