TopLocal Studio is a private, local AI app for Mac and Windows. Create images, video, music and speech offline: no account, no uploads, no credits. Open source.
Who it is for
Creators, researchers, educators, developers, and privacy-conscious teams using Mac or Windows.
Problem it solves
Cloud AI tools require uploads, accounts, usage credits, and recurring costs. That creates privacy concerns and makes repeat creative workflows expensive or dependent on an internet connection.
The solution
TopLocal Studio provides one desktop workspace for local image, video, music, speech, transcription, subtitles, text-to-speech, and voice-cloning workflows. Users download supported models and keep prompts and media on their device.
What makes it unique
It is open source under Apache-2.0, works offline after model setup, combines several local AI media workflows in one desktop app, and provides dedicated documentation sites for image, video, music, and audio tasks.

What do DR4, DR3 and the model difference mean?
DR4:
Ahrefs' newer model. It gives more weight to links from sites with organic search traffic and rates a subdomain on its own links.
DR3:
The previous model, shown in the Ahrefs app until 1 December 2026.
Model difference:
DR4 minus DR3 for the same domain. The models calculate differently, so this is not growth or a drop; the “since” lines compare each model with itself.
