One-liner

Contour is a native macOS app for interactive image and video segmentation — on your Mac, in bulk, via Meta's Segment Anything Model.

Short description

Contour is a native macOS workstation for interactive image and video segmentation. On-device, prompt-driven, dataset-ready. Six SAM variants, no uploads, no subscriptions.

Long description

Contour turns segmentation from a Python notebook into a batch operation. Drop hundreds of images into a collection, pick a SAM variant, prompt with text or bounding boxes, fine-tune confidence and NMS with live-rerender sliders, and export dataset-ready COCO JSON, YOLO TXT, mask PNG, or cutout PNG. Video works the same way: prompt once, follow objects through the clip in one of three tracking modes, then scrub the result frame by frame against a confidence timeline that flags where the track drifted. A video run writes a numbered mask sequence and, optionally, ProRes 4444 carrying the mask as its alpha channel. Every export ships a manifest recording the model, prompt, thresholds, and a SHA-256 of each source file, so a dataset can be audited or reproduced later — all on your Mac's GPU. Nothing uploads, no account is required, and there is no subscription. Contour is free for personal single-image work, with every model included; a one-time Pro upgrade unlocks batch processing, video segmentation, and the full export matrix.
