Reel Engine is a self-hosted AI video generator. Deploy it on your own VPS in minutes. No SaaS middlemen, no subscription traps, no per-video limits.
Auto-generated AI videos ready to post in minutes. Upload yours to showcase.
Placeholder cards — replace with your actual generated reels
Every dollar you spend on subscriptions funds someone else's business, not yours. There's a better way.
A scheduler costs about $49 per month, a video tool around $97 per month, and an AI script tool about $49 per month. That’s $200–$400 per month gone before you’ve earned a dollar.
Most SaaS plans cap you at 30–50 videos/month. Grow your business and you're penalised with higher tiers. Your success literally increases their revenue.
Your content, workflows, and automation are all locked into someone else’s platform. If they raise prices or shut down, you lose everything you built.
A complete AI video generation system that runs on your own server.
Paste a topic, get a fully rendered video with AI voiceover, captions, and background footage.
Connect your own YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram accounts. Posts are published automatically after generation.
Set topics, schedule, and let it run 24/7. Wake up to videos already posted.
Your server, your data, your brand. Nobody has access but you.
Enter your server details in the portal. We SSH in and install everything automatically.
The bottleneck is your API costs. Typically $15–$25 per month for 50+ videos.
Your domain, your colors, your brand. No "Powered by" watermarks.
Bring your own OpenAI, ElevenLabs, Pexels keys. You control the costs.
Track videos generated, posting status, logs, and system health.
You get the same AI videos either way. The only difference is who keeps the money: you or the SaaS company.

"I was paying $97/month between Publer and a SaaS video tool. Now I pay $6/month for my VPS and nothing else. Costs dropped 94%. That math is hard to argue with."
"I run 12 client accounts. On typical tools that's $30+ per account every month. I installed Reel Engine once and it handles all of them. My margins went through the roof."
"Not a tech person at all. The installer set everything up in about 5 minutes. I had my first reel posted within an hour of buying. Honestly shocked at how smooth it was."
"Owning the data is what sealed it for me. My clients' content used to live inside other people's platforms. Now it's on my server and I control everything. No surprises."
"30 product reels a week, fully automated. I used to pay a video editor $500/month. Now I paid once and the system just runs. Best business decision I've made this year."
"The multi-platform posting got me. Video generates, then it goes straight to YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok without me touching anything. That's exactly what I needed."
