Palmier Pro alternative for Windows and Linux

Palmier Pro runs on macOS only, and only on recent Apple Silicon Macs — it requires macOS 26 Tahoe and does not support Intel. Across 85 public releases it has shipped exactly one binary each time, PalmierPro.dmg; no Windows or Linux build has ever been published. ArtDaddy is a comparable AI video editor with native Windows, macOS and Linux builds, released under GPL-3.0.

Where the tool sets differ

Both expose their editor to an agent as a set of tools — 55 in ArtDaddy, 47 in Palmier Pro — but they are not the same 55 and 47.

Palmier Pro has, ArtDaddy does not

Silence removal, filler-word removal, beat detection, multicam (angle sync and switching), clip-media swapping, audio denoise, media upscaling and timeline markers.

ArtDaddy has, Palmier Pro does not

Asking questions about footage and finding moments in it by description, web and YouTube search, downloading a source video, web page capture, colour inspection, image and music generation, and a raw ffmpeg escape hatch.

The platform difference, in their own release history

Palmier Pro's public releases are listed on GitHub. Every release from v0.1.0 in April 2026 to v0.9.0 in September 2026 carries one asset, PalmierPro.dmg. It requires macOS 26 Tahoe and Apple Silicon, so it excludes every Intel Mac as well as every PC.

ArtDaddy's releases carry four assets: a Windows installer, a macOS disk image for Apple Silicon, and a Linux AppImage and .deb. The macOS build runs on macOS 11 or later, so it does not require the current release of the operating system.
