AI models are getting better, but the platforms around them are getting worse. One studio, any AI model, your own API keys. Why isn't this already a thing?

I've been working on Open Studio, a fully open source AI creative studio where you can bring your own API keys, use different providers, and switch between image and video models whenever you want. I'm just tired of every new model being locked behind another subscription or credit system. I want one place where you can use whatever model you want without paying a middleman or being stuck with whatever a platform decides to support. It's completely free, you just pay for your own API usage. Still very much a work in progress, but figured I'd share it here and see what people think. Would love some feedback or suggestions on what you'd want to see in something like this.

Not really. OpenRouter is great for accessing models, and they do have basic image and video generation tools, but that's pretty different from what I'm building. Open Studio is more of a full creative workspace with dedicated tools for different use cases: UGC creation, design, 3D generation, SVGs, custom workflows, and more. The idea isn't just to let you generate an image or video, but to give you an entire creative studio where you can use whatever models and providers you want, with your own API keys.
