Kliptory Unlimited

License key (required)

After purchase you receive a license key by email. Each key can be activated once for a single self-hosted installation.

1. A superuser opens Portal → Unlimited Activate, enters the key, and binds this install (stores a signed proof from kliptory.com).
2. Video creation calls https://kliptory.com to validate the license.

What to expect

Compiled software — no source changes

Kliptory Unlimited is delivered as pre-built Docker images for your CPU architecture (kliptory-business-amd64.tar.gz or kliptory-business-arm64.tar.gz, plus the matching kliptory-editor-*.tar.gz). The application is compiled and bundled for deployment — you do not receive source code and cannot modify, customize, or extend the software. Run it as provided.

Unlimited videos, pay-as-you-go API usage

There is no monthly video quota from Kliptory. You can generate as many videos as you want, limited only by what you are willing to spend on third-party API usage (voiceover, LLM calls, stock footage, thumbnails, and so on). Your costs scale with how much you produce.

Generation time

Video generation runs locally on your machine and is not instant. A typical 10-minute video takes about 2–4 hours to complete, depending on your internet speed (for downloading footage and calling external APIs) and your computer specs (CPU, RAM, and whether you have a GPU for rendering). Faster hardware and a stable connection reduce wait times; weaker setups will take longer.

Download

Download the following files and place them in the same folder. Choose the image pair that matches your machine:

• Docker deployment file (docker-compose.business.yml) — we will provide
• Load script (load-images.sh) — we will provide
• .env file contents — we will provide

In the same folder as docker-compose.business.yml, create a .env file and paste the provided contents there.

Load & start

Load the Docker images, then start the stack. The easiest way is to use the provided load-images.sh script:

chmod +x load-images.sh
./load-images.sh

Or load the matching image pair manually:

# Apple Silicon / ARM64
docker load -i kliptory-editor-arm64.tar.gz
docker load -i kliptory-business-arm64.tar.gz

# Intel / AMD64
docker load -i kliptory-editor-amd64.tar.gz
docker load -i kliptory-business-amd64.tar.gz

docker compose -f docker-compose.business.yml up -d --force-recreate

Create the .env file in the same folder as docker-compose.business.yml.

Enable email & password login

docker compose -f docker-compose.business.yml exec web python manage.py shell -c "from portal.models import SiteConfig; SiteConfig.set('EMAIL_PASSWORD_AUTH_ENABLED', 'true')"

Create a super admin

After creating an account, promote yourself to super admin. Replace YOUREMAILUSEDTOSIGNUP with the email you used to sign up:

docker compose -f docker-compose.business.yml exec web python manage.py shell -c "from django.contrib.auth import get_user_model; U = get_user_model(); u = U.objects.get(email='YOUREMAILUSEDTOSIGNUP'); u.is_staff = True; u.is_superuser = True; u.save(); print('Done:', u.email)"

Visit http://localhost:5021/portal/settings/ to add your API keys.

Add proxies.txt

The compose file mounts ./proxies.txt from the host into worker containers at /app/videos/pipeline/proxies.txt. On a new install, load-images.sh creates this file automatically if it is missing. Edit it in the same directory as docker-compose.business.yml:

http://user:[email protected]:8080
http://user:[email protected]:8080
socks5://user:[email protected]:1080

docker compose -f docker-compose.business.yml up -d

An empty proxies.txt is fine if you do not use proxies.

Enable A-Roll & avatar video formats

By default, Top 10 with A-Roll, Documentary with A-Roll, and Avatar Video are turned off on self-hosted installs. They still appear in the Create Video format dropdown, but are marked as under maintenance until you enable them. Avatar Video requires a HeyGen API key and is not fully stable yet.

Via Portal Settings (recommended)

Sign in as a super admin, then open Provider Settings. In the Video Creation section:

• A-Roll Formats Under Maintenance — turn off (Disabled) to allow Top 10 with A-Roll and Documentary with A-Roll.
• Avatar Video Under Maintenance — turn off to allow avatar video creation.

Click Save Provider Settings after changing either toggle.
