## About

### What it is

MoneyPrinterTurbo is an open source AI short video generator made by harry0703. You give it a topic or a keyword. It writes the script, matches footage, makes the voiceover and subtitles, adds background music and renders an HD video. You can also supply your own script, images and clips. It runs as a WebUI, an API, a command line, or through an AI agent that reads its Skill.

You give a topic or a keyword → A model writes the script and the footage search words → Footage is matched, and a voice reads the script → Subtitles and background music are added → The video renders as 9:16, 16:9 or 1:1

### Who it suits

Creators and small teams who want many short vertical videos without opening an editor, and developers who want video generation they can call from a script. The README says you keep control of every stage, from the script to the editing.

Who uses it, and how

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Social media and content | Creators and small brands | Turn a topic into a vertical video with a voice, subtitles and music | A creator enters a topic and gets a 9:16 video for TikTok, Instagram or YouTube Shorts. |
| Marketing | Marketers | Generate several variants of one video in a batch and review the task history | A marketer asks for a few versions of one topic and compares them. |
| Education | Teachers and course makers | Make narrated explainers in the audience’s language | A teacher supplies a finished script and picks a voice. The README’s gallery has Chinese and English examples. |
| Software and automation | Developers | Call the API or the command line from scripts | A developer lists two subjects in a tasks.json file and runs the batch command. |
| AI agent users | People with an agent that reads Skill documents | Hand the agent the Skill address and a topic | The agent installs the tool, asks for any missing key and returns the path of the video file. |

Skip it if you want a hand-built timeline. MoneyPrinterTurbo assembles the video itself from a topic or your own script and clips, with a transition setting that config.example.toml lists as "None", "Shuffle", "FadeIn" and others. The repository’s separate editable project tool does not implement transitions or overlays in its first local renderer.

### Where to use it

The README gives a route for each of these.

- Windows: a one-click package from GitHub Releases, with update.bat and start.bat
- macOS, Linux and Windows: the mpt package from pip, or the source with uv
- Docker: a Compose file that pulls a prebuilt image
- An AI agent that reads Skill documents and runs a terminal: macOS and Windows
- Google Colab: a notebook, with no local setup
- RecCloud: a free online generator that the README says is based on this project

The README recommends Windows 10 or later, macOS 11 or later, or a mainstream Linux distribution.

### How to set it up

Get it saves a zip of Mindket’s setup notes in your downloads folder, with one file for each route the README documents. The README says Windows users should try the one-click package first, and that anyone with Python can install the pip package.

What you need first

| Need | Detail |
| --- | --- |
| Python | 3.11 or later for a local install. The README recommends 3.11 |
| Hardware | At least 4 CPU cores and 4 GB of RAM. A GPU is not required |
| A model for scripts | An API key for a provider such as OpenAI, Gemini or DeepSeek, or a ChatGPT login through the Codex provider |
| Footage | A free Pexels key by default, or your own images and videos |
| Voice | Edge TTS is free and needs no key |
| Windows paths | No non-ASCII characters, special characters or spaces in the project path |

1. Install Python 3.11 or later and create a virtual environment.
2. Install the mpt package and start the WebUI. It opens in your browser.
3. Open the basic settings and add the keys for your model and your footage source.
4. Give it a topic and generate the video.

On macOS or Linux:

```sh
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install mpt
mpt webui
```

On Windows PowerShell, create and activate the environment with `python -m venv .venv` and `.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1`, then run `python -m pip install mpt` and `mpt webui`.

Windows also has a shorter route. Download the .7z archive from the Assets section of the latest GitHub release, extract it, double-click update.bat, then double-click start.bat.

### How to use it

Enter a topic in the WebUI. From a source checkout set up with uv, the README calls this the simplest complete generation command.

```sh
uv run python cli.py --video-subject "How AI is changing everyday life"
```

With the pip package, run `mpt cli --help` for the command-line options.

Or hand an AI agent the Skill. The README says the agent installs and configures MoneyPrinterTurbo, generates the video and returns the file path, and that it asks only for required keys that are not set yet.

```text
Use this Skill: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/harry0703/MoneyPrinterTurbo/main/docs/skill/SKILL.md
Create a video with the topic "How AI is changing everyday life."
```

### Example

You install the pip package and start the WebUI. In the basic settings you add a model key and a Pexels key. You enter the topic “How AI is changing everyday life”. The tool writes the script, fetches footage for its search words, reads it in a voice such as free Edge TTS, adds subtitles and music, and renders the video.

When an agent runs it, the Skill says a successful run prints lines of this shape:

```text
MPT_RESULT
VIDEO_FILE=<absolute path>/final-1.mp4
TASK_DIR=<absolute path>/storage/tasks/<task_id>
LOG_FILE=<absolute path>/run-<task_id>.log
RESULT_FILE=<absolute path>/latest-result.json
```

VIDEO\_FILE is the path of final-1.mp4, the finished video. The other lines name the task folder, the log file and the result file.

### For newcomers and experts

**If you are new.** MoneyPrinterTurbo is a program that makes a short video for you. A language model writes the words, a voice reads them, and stock clips fill the screen. You usually add a model key and a free Pexels key. A ChatGPT login through the Codex provider needs no API key, and your own images and videos need no footage key. Start with the Windows package or the pip install, then add the keys in the basic settings. Edge TTS needs no key.

**For experts.** To run several tasks one after another from a source checkout, pass a UTF-8 JSON array or JSONL manifest. The README’s example is `uv run python cli.py --batch-file ./tasks.json --stop-at video`. A manifest holds up to 100 tasks and 1 MiB. All entries are checked before the first task starts, and the run goes on after one task fails. The command prints one JSON summary with total, succeeded, failed and tasks.

For subtitle style and voiceover options, an explicit CLI option beats the saved \[ui\] value in config.toml, which beats the built-in default. Background music, video count and paragraph count are not inherited from the WebUI. The subtitle mode edge uses TTS timestamps. The mode whisper runs faster-whisper locally and downloads a model of about 3 GB, or about 1.6 GB for large-v3-turbo, on first use.

Two ChatGPT sign-ins exist and they are separate. The Codex provider uses a device code, and the same login serves the Codex image source. The native OAuth provider needs an eligible account and a browser on the same computer, so it does not work from Docker or a remote machine. The repository also has a command-line tool for editable local video projects. It keeps revisions of prepared scenes and rebuilds only the stages a change touches.

### Good to know

Check these before you publish anything.

- Package name: install mpt. The README says the MoneyPrinterTurbo package on PyPI is maintained by a third party
- Music: the README says the project includes some default music taken from YouTube videos, and to delete it if there are copyright issues
- Costs: Pexels and Pixabay footage is free. config.example.toml says WaveSpeed generation is billed per request and OFox generation per clip, and the Skill asks you to confirm before a paid video source runs
- ChatGPT logins: the Codex provider spends the connected subscription’s allowance, and each Codex image uses it too
- Keys: they live in config.toml, which the comments say not to commit
- Network: config.example.toml sets the API host to 0.0.0.0, which listens on all interfaces. It has an optional api\_key, sent as the x-api-key header. docker-compose.release.yml publishes its ports on 127.0.0.1 only
- Data: the model you pick gets your topic and writes the script and search keywords. The voice service gets the script. Pexels, Pixabay and Coverr get keyword searches, and AI video sources such as Seedance work from script segments. The launch scripts turn off Streamlit usage statistics
- Windows package: the Source code archives on the release page have webui.bat but no start.bat or update.bat
- Removal: the README and the docs give no uninstall steps
- License: MIT. The LICENSE file reads “Copyright (c) 2024 Harry”

# MoneyPrinterTurbo: setup notes

This kit holds setup notes only. Mindket wrote them. MoneyPrinterTurbo, its Skill and its Windows package come from the maker's repository: https://github.com/harry0703/MoneyPrinterTurbo

These notes are not made or endorsed by harry0703. The English README calls MoneyPrinterTurbo "An All-in-One AI Short Video Generator" and says: "Provide a video topic or keyword, and MoneyPrinterTurbo will generate the script, match footage, create subtitles and background music, and produce an HD short video." The README is at https://github.com/harry0703/MoneyPrinterTurbo/blob/main/README-en.md

License: MIT. The LICENSE file (https://github.com/harry0703/MoneyPrinterTurbo/blob/main/LICENSE) is the MIT License and reads "Copyright (c) 2024 Harry".

The README has sponsor sections. These notes leave them out.

## Pick a route

Each route below has its own file in this kit. The README's Quick Start covers the agent, Windows, pip, Docker, source and Colab routes. The last two files cover settings and a separate repository tool.

- An AI agent that reads Skill documents and runs a terminal: setup/ai-agent-skill.md
- Windows one-click package: setup/windows.md
- The official pip package, `mpt`: setup/pip.md
- Docker: setup/docker.md
- Source with uv, the WebUI, the API and the command line: setup/source-and-cli.md
- Google Colab and the online generator the README names: setup/google-colab-and-online.md
- Model, footage, voice and subtitle settings, and the README's troubleshooting: setup/models-and-keys.md
- Editable local video projects, a command-line tool in the repository: setup/video-projects.md

## What installs

- pip route: the `mpt` package from PyPI (https://pypi.org/project/mpt/) with the dependencies its pyproject.toml lists. It adds an `mpt` command.
- Windows package: a `.7z` archive from GitHub Releases that you extract. It holds `start.bat` and `update.bat`.
- Docker route: the image `ghcr.io/harry0703/moneyprinterturbo:latest`, run as two containers, `moneyprinterturbo-webui` and `moneyprinterturbo-api`, from `docker-compose.release.yml`.
- Source route: a clone of the repository, with the environment built by `uv sync --frozen`.
- Agent route: the Skill's own text says it installs MoneyPrinterTurbo under the user's home directory.

Source: https://github.com/harry0703/MoneyPrinterTurbo/blob/main/README-en.md, https://github.com/harry0703/MoneyPrinterTurbo/blob/main/pyproject.toml, https://github.com/harry0703/MoneyPrinterTurbo/blob/main/docker-compose.release.yml and https://github.com/harry0703/MoneyPrinterTurbo/blob/main/docs/skill/SKILL.md

## Before you start

- Local deployment needs Python 3.11 or later. The README recommends Python 3.11.
- Recommended platforms: Windows 10 or later, macOS 11 or later, or a mainstream Linux distribution.
- A GPU is not required. The README recommends one for faster local transcription, faster video processing or smoother batch generation.
- On Windows, avoid project paths that contain non-ASCII characters, special characters or spaces.

| Item | Minimum | Recommended | Optimal |
| ---- | ------------ | ------------ | ---------- |
| CPU | 4 cores | 6 to 8 cores | 8+ cores |
| RAM | 4 GB | 8 GB | 16+ GB |
| GPU | Not required | 4+ GB VRAM | 8+ GB VRAM |

The README adds that with cloud LLMs, cloud TTS and online material sources, CPU and RAM matter more than a GPU. With `faster-whisper`, batch generation or heavier local processing, a GPU improves throughput noticeably.

## First launch and keys

On first launch the project creates `config.toml` from `config.example.toml`, so you do not create the file by hand. Before you use a cloud LLM, online footage or an AI video service, add its API key in the WebUI basic settings. The comments in `config.example.toml` say to keep API keys in `config.toml` and not to commit it. Edge TTS, the default voice service, needs no key. See setup/models-and-keys.md.

## Update and removal

- pip: with your virtual environment active, run `python -m pip install --upgrade mpt`.
- Windows package: the README says to double-click `update.bat` before `start.bat`.
- The README and the docs give no uninstall steps.

Mindket's note, not the maker's: the pip route keeps `config.toml` and the generated videos in a data directory (see setup/pip.md). Remove that directory only when you no longer need them.

## Data and costs

- The launch scripts `webui.sh` and `webui.bat` start Streamlit with `--browser.gatherUsageStats=False`.
- Stock footage from Pexels and Pixabay is free. `config.example.toml` says WaveSpeed generation is billed per request, and OFox, Volcano Engine Seedance, MuAPI and Metaso MiniMax generation is billed per submitted clip. The Skill asks for your confirmation before it runs a paid source.
- The model you choose gets your topic and writes the script and search keywords. The voice service gets the script. Pexels, Pixabay and Coverr get keyword searches, and AI video sources such as Seedance work from script segments (README, `config.example.toml`).
- The README says the project ships some default background music taken from YouTube videos, and that you should delete it if there are copyright issues.
