## What it is
Flowframes is a Windows GUI application for AI-based video frame interpolation, supporting RIFE (Pytorch & NCNN), DAIN (NCNN), and FLAVR (Pytorch) implementations. It lets users increase video frame rates or create smooth slow motion without command-line knowledge, with sensible defaults and automatic dependency installation.

## Use cases
- interpolate video to 60fps from 30fps footage
- create smooth slow motion from a video
- smooth out low-framerate animation with frame deduplication
- run RIFE video interpolation without using the command line
- upscale frame rate of gameplay or camera footage
- interpolate GIF or PNG sequences with transparency

## When to choose
- you want a point-and-click GUI for AI frame interpolation on Windows
- you have an Nvidia GPU for Pytorch models or any Vulkan-capable GPU for NCNN
- you want to interpolate 2D animation with duplicate-frame removal
- you want automatic dependency setup and reasonable defaults

## When to avoid
- you need Linux or macOS support - it is Windows-only
- you want a headless CLI or batch pipeline tool for servers
- you need guaranteed stability and official support for self-compiled builds
- you lack a modern GPU and cannot tolerate slow CPU-only processing
