Private AI, in production.
For creative studios, agencies and brands. Deployed in your own cloud. Never trained on your content. Fully compatible with ComfyUI.
Trying AI is easy. Trusting it with a client's IP isn't.
Models get downloaded and used in client work with nobody checking the licence, and no record that anyone approved them.
ComfyUI is the most capable tool and the hardest to use. Most artists never touch it, so the work sits with one or two specialists.
A workflow that ran last month fails today. Dependencies drift, and artists spend their time fixing tools instead of being creative.
Long lead times on new hardware, and a premium on anything in stock. Meanwhile a client bid needs an answer this week.
Work gets made across a dozen unconnected tools. When a client asks which model made a frame, nobody can say, or make it again.
EngineLab AI solves all of this, and more.
ComfyUI, without the complexity.
Build and edit powerful AI workflows through a clean, intuitive interface. Every workflow created in EngineLab AI is compatible with ComfyUI, so advanced users can switch whenever they need it.
Organised by project, like the rest of your studio.
Every project holds its workflows in folders, laid out the way artists already expect. Each one is tracked, so you always know which version is live and who changed it.
Every output, in one shared place.
Whether it came from a model you host or a frontier API, every output is automatically saved and ready for the whole team to review, comment on and favourite. Each one tracks the model, prompt, settings and who ran it.
Import a workflow, or build one with AI.
Paste or upload the ComfyUI workflows you already have and they open as editable workflows, ready to run. Or describe what you need and your AI assistant builds a working first version.
Every model, tracked and approved for the show.
All your models in one library, with the licence attached and a record of which projects each is cleared for. Nothing reaches an artist until it's approved.
GPUs in your own cloud. Nothing to buy, nothing to maintain.
The platform runs and scales the compute for you, sized to the job. No hardware to order, no lead times, no environments to look after.
Know what every project is costing you.
AI spend is tracked against each project as it happens, so you can see exactly where the money is going. Set a budget per project and keep the spend under control.
Plugs into your studio.
Works with the tools and storage your artists already use, so nothing has to change around it.
Meet ELAssist. Build better workflows, faster.
Start from a plain text prompt. Describe what you're trying to make and ELAssist builds a working workflow, ready to run or refine.
Ask what would make a workflow better. ELAssist suggests changes, from a different model to a cleaner graph, and makes them when you say so.
When a workflow breaks, ask ELAssist what's wrong. It finds the problem and repairs it, without you digging through the nodes.
Self-hosted and frontier models. All in one platform.
Models you host
The checkpoints and LoRAs your artists already trust, running on GPUs in your own cloud. Nothing leaves it, and nothing is trained on your content.
Models others host
The same workflows can call third party APIs when a job needs them. You decide which providers each team and project may use, and set the budget.
Different work, same platform.
Your in-house artists and your freelancers collaborate on the same platform, on the same workflows, with everything they make in one place. It fits into the pipeline and tools you already have.
Own the platform, bring every studio you work with onto it, and stay in control of your clients' IP, with each account kept separate from the next. Take on AI work at volume without a new tool and a new risk for each account.
Give your marketing team locked workflows that keep every output on brand, and produce social and campaign content at volume. Your product, your unreleased work and your IP stay in your account.
EngineLab AI gives you full control.
The others don't.

We pioneered the first cloud-native studios.Now we're doing it for AI.
We came from VFX and animation studios, where we built the first creative studios to run entirely in the cloud. No machine room to build, no equipment to power or cool, artists working anywhere, and infrastructure that moved from CapEx to OpEx.
We founded EngineLab to bring that to studios everywhere, combining decades in VFX and animation with deep cloud expertise. We work alongside studio technology teams to design, build and run their infrastructure.
Generative AI is changing how studios use technology, the way the cloud did. EngineLab is pioneering and innovating again with EngineLab AI, already in production with studios. Read it on the AWS Media & Entertainment blog →
“Having a managed, secure environment that lets us scale ComfyUI across the whole studio, with the control and governance we need for client work, is exactly what we've been looking for.”
