Description
Hi Indie Hackers We’re building Kinkora, a creative platform that brings multiple image and video AI models into one place for experimentation and creation.Like many builders, we found ourselves constantly switching tools just to test different models or creative directions. Each platform felt limited to a single workflow or use case. So we decided to build a space that’s more modular, exploratory, and creator-first.Kinkora focuses on:Supporting popular generative modelsMaking experimentation fast and enjoyableLaying the foundation for a creative community, not just a generatorOur long-term goal isn’t just “generate content”, but to create a place where creators can play, iterate, and discover new ideas as models and techniques evolve.We’re early, actively iterating, and would love feedback from fellow indie builders on:Feature directionCommunity mechanicsCreator-friendly workflowsHappy to answer any questions

Competitors mentioned: Nano Banana (direct prompting alternative), Sora (video generation)
Concerns raised: Product name creates unintended NSFW/sexual associations in English, Safety risks with NSFW content generation, especially regarding illegal content, Lack of safeguards against illegal use cases, Front-end filtering alone is insufficient for content moderation
Feature requests: Preserve prompt and settings after authentication/login, Aspect ratio options beyond default (4:3, etc.), Clearer seed documentation (fixed vs. random for reproducibility), Easier navigation to video creation (don't bury behind Home → Try Now), Rename 'Space' section to 'My Videos' or similar

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a content generation tool for Government yet.
