## What it is
Gausian is a native desktop video editor built in Rust with GPU-accelerated preview (WGPU), timeline editing, and hardware decoding via VideoToolbox and GStreamer. It targets AI video production workflows, integrating with a local ComfyUI for prompt-based generation and offering LLM-powered screenplay/storyboard helpers plus a headless CLI.

## Use cases
- edit videos locally with a fast native timeline editor
- preview AI-generated video clips with GPU rendering
- generate video shots from prompts via local ComfyUI
- export timelines to FCPXML or EDL for Final Cut Pro
- create proxies for heavy video footage
- summarize or shot-list footage with AI analysis
- run headless video editing operations from the command line

## When to choose
- you need a fast, local, privacy-friendly video editor for AI-generated footage
- you work with ComfyUI and want auto-import of generated outputs
- you need FCPXML/EDL export to round-trip with professional NLEs
- you want GPU-accelerated preview on macOS, Windows, or Linux

## When to avoid
- you need a full-featured editor with color grading, effects, and audio mixing
- you require a well-established tool with long-term community support
- you need a browser-based or collaborative cloud editor
- you depend on a permissive open-source license, as the license here is non-standard
