Most tools support Windows only, Mac and Linux support varies per individual tool.

So what is it?

Paper2GUI is a desktop application toolbox that wraps more than 50 AI models in simple graphical interfaces, so that people without programming knowledge can use them directly. The README is primarily in Chinese, with an English version linked. The project's stated goal is to make cutting-edge AI research accessible to ordinary users: download an app, open it, use it, no installation of Python or libraries required. The tools are organized by task category. The AI image generation section includes a Stable Diffusion app for creating images from text descriptions. Video tools include frame interpolation (for making low-frame-rate video smoother) and video super-resolution (for upscaling lower-quality video to higher resolution, mainly for animation). Other categories cover text-to-speech conversion, background removal from photos and videos, face restoration for repairing blurry or damaged portrait photos, style transfer for turning photos into anime or painting styles, object detection, optical character recognition for extracting text from images, subtitle translation, and audio stem separation for isolating vocals or instruments from music. Each app is available as a standalone download: a small executable file that runs without installing anything else. Most apps support Windows, with Mac and Linux support varying by tool. Download sizes range from a few megabytes to a few hundred megabytes depending on the AI model included. The project also ships a unified app called XBT AI (Xiaobai Tu AI, or Little White Rabbit AI) that bundles many of these tools in one interface, available for Windows, Mac, and Linux in both x64 and ARM64 builds. The full README is longer than what was shown.
