Hi, I'm Yanir.
I run Okapi Services — a solo AI video studio built on the belief that one expert operator, with the right tools and a genuine artistic eye, can deliver what used to require a full production team.
I trained at art school and spent years in copywriting and campaign work before going deep into AI video. I know Stable Diffusion, ComfyUI, FLUX, and RunPod at a technical edge level — not as a hobbyist, but as someone who's pushed each model to its limits across thousands of hours of production.
I work with brands, creators, and music artists. Send me a song — I'll come back with a visual concept. Send me a brief — I'll write the copy and direct the visuals. I've made content for every audience: mainstream, adult, kids, niche.
My rate is $329/hr + platform credits at cost. Every project starts with an agreed budget per clip — no retainers, no surprises.
Tools & Workflow
I use the best available AI tools — and I'm constantly testing new ones. Here's what's in the stack right now.

Why "Okapi"?
An okapi is a rare animal — part zebra, part giraffe, entirely its own thing. Most people have never seen one. It doesn't fit neatly into any category.
That's what this studio is: not a traditional agency, not a simple freelancer. Something unusual. Something that gets results people don't expect.
How I Work
Budget First
Every project starts with an agreed budget per clip. You know the number before I touch a timeline.
Artist-Led
Art school trained. I bring genuine visual thinking to every brief — not just prompt engineering.
No Bloat
Every second of every video earns its place. No agency overhead, no account managers, no filler.
