Amplify professional creative work. Don’t replace it.
Ariam Labs is an independent software company building creative tools for professionals in the AI era. Our first release is Obelus, a desktop studio for motion, design, film, and 3D.
MEET OBELUS
Most AI creative tools are trying to replace you. Obelus wants to empower you.
Obelus is a desktop app built with creative professionals in mind. Work iteratively with generative AI tools and traditional digital craft on the same canvas. Plus, Obelus connects natively to the other professional tools you already work in.

A hundred tabs. A thousand prompts. One result you actually needed.
Right now, doing professional creative work with AI goes a little like this: ten websites, ten logins, ten subscriptions, a prompt box on each.
Type, wait, try again. And again. Download, rename, re-upload somewhere else, then finally start working.
And what came back is something you might, maybe, if nobody notices the render issue, possibly use. Not the thing you actually wanted.
Yeah that doesn’t work for us either.
Less typing. More working.
Prompting doesn’t feel like craft.
The frustrating part is how often a result is almost right:
- One object too many
- A background that doesn’t fit
- A subject you wish you could just lift out of the frame
Everywhere else, almost means a new prompt.
In Obelus, it means get to work:
- Extract the subject
- Clean the edges
- Promote the asset
- Run new variations
More control. Fewer prompts.
One space.
The entire job.
Image, video, audio, and 3D in one canvas, in one project. Nothing scattered across downloads folders, no scrolling through your generation history on ten other AI websites. And when you’re ready, connect with one click to the other professional tools you already use.
SIMPLIFIED
One studio instead of a stack of AI subscriptions.
Easier to manage, creatively and financially.
Obelus covers what the stack does: image, video, music, 3D, upscaling, vector art.
BUILT TO STAY YOURS
Your work stays your work.
Obelus is a desktop app. Your projects, your results, your library.
The work itself is files on your disk, not entries in someone else’s cloud. (Your account is the only thing that lives on ours.)
Cloud models run only when you press run. There’s no feed, no gallery, no public anything.
Obelus publishes nothing.
Yours for good.
Keep Obelus for a full paid year and that version is yours for good. When your subscription ends, you don’t lose your studio.
FROM THE FOUNDER
I’ve spent my career in motion design. I started Ariam Labs because the AI era was making my work faster and worse at the same time. More output, less craft. More tabs, less control. Artists don’t want to be replaced, and we don’t need to be. What professional creatives need is better tools for this era: tools that keep as much control, convenience, and flexibility in our hands as humanly possible. That’s what Ariam Labs exists to build. Obelus is where it starts.
