Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Max, founder of Effects SDK. Most users now expect every video app to look and sound as polished as Zoom or Google Meet. But building real-time video and audio processing in-house is hard — segmentation, rendering, browser quirks, native platforms, audio processing, performance, and edge cases add up quickly. That’s why we built Effects SDK. It helps developers add AI video effects and real-time audio noise suppression directly into their own apps — background blur, virtual backgrounds, smart framing, lighting correction, beautification, overlays, avatars, and clean audio. Everything runs client-side on the user’s device, and the SDK works with existing video stacks like WebRTC, LiveKit, Twilio, Agora, Zoom Web SDK, or your own pipeline. We’re also offering 3 months of free access for Product Hunt makers building real-time video or audio products. Would love your feedback, questions, and ideas 🙌

<p>me thinks the effect collection looks useful for many apps? could lightweight quality settings help developers support more devices easily?</p>
