What it does
Montagist helps creators research topics and sources, draft scripts and storyboards, produce narration with third-party speech services, arrange media and render videos locally on a Mac. AI-assisted planning and speech send the necessary inputs to the services selected by the user.
Free release and download
Version 1.1.0 is the current free release, available for Apple silicon Macs with macOS 13 or later. Its free access is unchanged, and early-license buyers use it until the paid edition ships.

The paid edition
The 1.x paid edition includes everything in the free release: text-assisted planning, speech, subtitles, local media import, remote media search and download, and local composition. Before a remote video is downloaded, you record your reuse permission and the source's terms; downloads without that record are blocked. The record is your declaration, not a legal finding or payment-provider approval. It activates online and renews its license at most every 7 days.
Accounts and local processing
The workflow combines cloud account/AI services with local media processing and video rendering on the customer's Mac. A compatible Mac, product account, provider access and any required BYOK keys are needed. Local rendering does not mean that prompts, narration text or all account data remain offline.
