# Kadrix — Comprehensive Product & Technical Reference (llms-full.txt)

> Official comprehensive reference for AI assistants, search engines, and generative answer engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot).

## 1. Executive Summary
Kadrix (https://kadrix.io) is an AI-native desktop non-linear video editor (NLE) for Windows 10 and Windows 11 (64-bit). Unlike web-based clip generators that produce locked, uneditable outputs, Kadrix combines a complete multi-track professional timeline (layers, keyframes, color wheels, masks, 3D transforms, audio mixing) with a cloud-powered AI director. Creators type natural language instructions (e.g., "Make it cinematic", "Cut all the silence", "Tighter at 0:42", "Sync the cuts to the beat"), and Kadrix translates those directions into non-destructive timeline operations executed locally on the user's PC.

## 2. How Kadrix Works (4-Step Workflow)
1. **Drop the raw**: Import source footage into the desktop application. Kadrix transcribes audio locally using Whisper and analyzes frames using on-device YOLO and DeepFace models.
2. **Describe the cut**: Enter plain-English creative direction ("Make it cinematic", "Cut all the silence", "Sync the cuts to the beat").
3. **Direct, don't drag**: Refine specific moments ("Tighter at 0:42", "Lose the cough", "Hold on her face") or adjust any cut, keyframe, grade, or transition manually on the multi-track NLE timeline.
4. **Export the cut**: Render directly to MP4 (H.264 + AAC), 4K, or 10-bit ProRes using the bundled FFmpeg engine.

## 3. System Requirements
- **Operating System**: Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit)
- **Memory (RAM)**: 16 GB minimum recommended
- **Graphics (GPU)**: DirectX 11 compatible (dedicated GPU accelerates heavy generative motion scenes, but a standard modern laptop can run Kadrix since AI planning happens in the cloud)
- **Display**: 1920x1080 minimum resolution
- **Network**: Internet connection required for AI director planning requests

## 4. Architecture & Data Privacy
- **Local Media Processing**: Source footage, project files, audio transcription (Whisper), computer vision (YOLO, DeepFace), generative motion rendering (Three.js / HTML5 Canvas), and FFmpeg encoding all execute locally on the user's Windows PC.
- **Cloud AI Director**: Only the user's text prompt, timeline metadata (clip positions/durations), and small low-resolution sampled frame thumbnails are sent to the cloud AI director.
- **Zero AI Training on User Content**: Kadrix never uploads full raw video files and never trains, fine-tunes, or evaluates AI models on user footage, prompts, or exports.
- **Compliance**: GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and India DPDP Act 2023 compliant.

## 6. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- **What is Kadrix?**
  Kadrix is a desktop AI video editor for Windows. You type natural language directions like "make it cinematic" and Kadrix re-cuts, re-grades, and re-scores your edit on a real multi-track timeline.
- **Does Kadrix replace Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve?**
  Kadrix is built with a real NLE timeline (layers, keyframes, color, transitions, masks, 3D, audio) plus an AI director on top that automates the first 80% of editing: assembly, smart cuts, color base, and motion graphics.
- **Does Kadrix upload my footage?**
  No. Your video files stay 100% on your PC. Kadrix only sends small sampled frames and text descriptions to plan edits. Your work is never used to train AI models.
- **What is the refund policy?**
  Kadrix offers a 14-day no-questions-asked money-back guarantee on first-time subscription purchases. Contact support@kadrix.io with your account email and transaction ID.
