AutoShow vs CraftNote

AutoShow is a free, MIT-licensed full-stack application for AI processing of audio and video. It accepts direct uploads and can extract audio from YouTube videos and streaming platforms. Transcription options include Groq Whisper, DeepInfra, YouTube Captions, and HappyScribe, with automatic speaker diarization. OpenAI GPT, Claude, and Google Gemini can produce episode descriptions, summaries, and chapters. The project also documents text-to-speech with OpenAI or ElevenLabs voices, generated cover images, and background music through ElevenLabs. It is available as a web interface, API, or self-hosted deployment, with Docker support and localhost:4321 as the documented local address. API endpoints cover health checks, jobs, models, processing, uploads, and media processing. Production documentation describes source-URL SSRF validation, USD cost estimates before jobs, structured JSON logs, and optional HTTP log forwarding. Google Drive OAuth setup remains manual.
