Plugin · native Metal GPU
Rays
Light rays that thin out and warm up as they travel, like sun through actual air.
Running live in your browser right now. The plugin runs the same math on native GPU inside After Effects.
Your cursor is the Source Point — sweep it across the footage, exactly like dragging the native point control.
Not a mockup
Same keyframes. Side by side — soon.
This panel replays a fixed parameter ramp, live on your GPU. When the first build ships, the same keyframes get recorded in After Effects and placed beside it, and you judge the match with your own eyes. Until that capture exists, we won't pretend it does.
Correctness — how close is close?
Before a build ships we render the same frame in our plugin and in the reference, and diff every pixel. If the difference grows, it doesn't ship.
