DaVinci Resolve alternative · Browser-based grading & LUT export

Skip the 3GB install.
Grade and export a LUT in your browser.

DaVinci Resolve is the professional standard for full timelines — but if you just need to grade a frame and export a .cube LUT, Luttie does it in your browser. No install, no GPU requirements.

Where Resolve is overkill for a quick grade.

Resolve is built for full post-production. Sometimes you just need one LUT.

Heavy install for a quick job

Resolve is a multi-gigabyte download built for full post-production timelines. If you just want to grade one frame or build a LUT, that's a lot of setup for a small task.

Desktop-only, GPU-dependent

Resolve needs a capable desktop or laptop with a real GPU. Luttie runs in any browser — on a laptop, tablet, or a machine that can't comfortably run Resolve.

Steep learning curve

Resolve's node-based color page is powerful but takes real time to learn. Luttie's curves, wheels, and HSL tools are built to get a look done fast, not to teach a full grading suite.

Honest take

When to use DaVinci Resolve. When to use Luttie.

Use DaVinci Resolve when:

  • You're grading a full timeline of clips
  • You need Fusion VFX, noise reduction, or audio tools
  • You're working in a collaborative post-production pipeline

Use Luttie when:

  • You want to grade a single frame or photo fast
  • You want to build and export a LUT, not edit a timeline
  • You're on a device that can't comfortably run Resolve
  • You want to work from a browser, no install

Grade your frame without opening Resolve.
