Castroom: a Mac app for photographing people who never existed
Castroom describes an unreleased Mac app that keeps an invented character visually consistent across generated images, then turns those images into slideshow drafts.
Field notes
Castroom's proposed workflow separates a person's identity from changeable clothing and scene details, then carries the saved description and reference images into later generations. It also keeps a run ledger containing model, cost, attempt count, and zero-cost refusals. The product is described as local to the user's Mac, with model credentials stored in Keychain and no Castroom account, analytics, tracking, or crash reporting. The page says the app is not yet available and offers a single release notification.
