v0.1.0
May 20, 2026
First public release. Glean ships as a signed, notarized macOS .app with a native window, full local pipeline, and Gumroad license gate.
What's in the box
- Drag-and-drop import — saved Facebook Ad Library pages (HTML +
_files/folders) parsed in seconds. - Searchable swipe-file gallery — filter by brand, format, or text. Live cost/time estimate on the action bar.
- Frame-by-frame video storyboards — Whisper transcription, on-screen text extraction, Claude scene descriptions, ad-structure analysis (Hook → Problem → Solution → CTA, AIDA, PAS).
- Image-ad analysis — OCR + ad-structure analysis for static creatives.
- Combined galleries — multi-brand tabbed views auto-rebuilt after each analyze run.
- Editable everything — VO, on-screen text, scene descriptions, OCR all editable inline and saved back to the report.
- Settings — API key, license, frame interval, archive system for previous research rounds.
Built for Mac
- Native macOS window via pywebview — feels like an app, not a browser tab.
- Code-signed with Apple Developer ID and notarized — no Gatekeeper warnings on first launch.
- One-time install script handles Python, Homebrew, ffmpeg, yt-dlp, and Whisper in a single double-click.
- All your data stays on your Mac. Nothing transits a Glean server (there isn't one).
