Cardboard

Cardboard is an agentic video editor for growth/marketing teams and serious creators who need to ship videos consistently. Instead of agencies, long timelines, and infinite review cycles, teams give cardboard a footage + a goal (“3 variants”, “30s hook”, “testimonials”) to get a strong first cut in minutes on which they can iterate quickly. Multimodal LLMs can finally reason over footage, and WebGPU/WebCodecs make a real NLE possible in the browser. For the first time, an “AI director” inside a

Glue is an open source design editor for AI agents. It gives coding agents an infinite canvas to create new interfaces, iterate on existing ones, and turn those changes into production-ready code all in real time. The rise of coding agents is collapsing EPD into one role: builders. This new paradigm means design and engineering can now converge to a single workflow. Builders no longer want static mockups in one tool, and implementation in another. Glue is a collaborative workspace where builders
