WakeGPU: open-source desktop app to run remote Colab GPUs with idle auto-shutdown

Far-Ad9512 · reddit · 2026-11-13

WakeGPU is a free, MIT-licensed native desktop app (macOS & Windows) that turns remote ComfyUI/Colab GPU instances into an automated private studio, with batch queuing and automatic idle shutdown to save Colab credits. Built to avoid SaaS markups for video/image generation (Wan 2.1, Hunyuan). No paywalls or telemetry; binaries on GitHub Releases.
