About Audioframe
Audioframe turns a piece of audio into a video you can post. It runs entirely inside your browser — your music is never uploaded, and there is no account to create.
Why it exists
If you make music, you eventually hit the same wall: the platforms that could carry your work reward video, and you have an audio file. The usual answers are a $20-a-month subscription service, or an afternoon in After Effects learning to rig an audio-reactive template.
Neither felt proportionate to what is, at heart, a small problem — draw a spectrum, make it move with the music, export it. Browsers have had everything needed to do that for years: the Web Audio API for frequency analysis, Canvas for drawing, and MediaRecorder plus WebAssembly for encoding. Audioframe is what happens when you use them instead of a render farm.
Why it runs in your browser
Every hosted visualizer works the same way: you upload your unreleased track to a stranger's server, wait in a queue, and download the result. That's a lot of trust to ask for a thirty-second clip.
Audioframe never sends your media anywhere. Analysis, rendering and encoding all happen on your own machine, which has three consequences worth stating plainly:
- Your work stays private. Unreleased tracks never leave your device.
- There's no queue. Nothing is waiting behind anyone else's render.
- It costs nothing to run. There are no servers to pay for, which is why it can be free without a watermark.
The honest trade-off: exporting uses your CPU, so a long 4K render takes real time on a slower machine — and very old browsers can't do it at all.
What it does
- Seven visualizer styles — bars, centre-mirror, circle, wave, blocks, spiral and particles
- Beat-reactive scaling driven by an envelope follower on the bass
- Audio and video input, with the source footage composited underneath
- Text overlays with free positioning and a curated font set
- Export to MP4, transparent WebM, PNG sequence or a single frame — up to 4K
- Aspect ratios for YouTube, Reels, TikTok, Shorts and square feed posts
- Templates, saved projects, and light/dark themes
Where it's going
Audioframe is in beta and actively developed. The near-term list is trimming a track to the section you actually want, a waveform timeline, and faster-than-real-time export. If you have a request or hit a bug, get in touch — the roadmap is genuinely shaped by what people ask for.
