ChatCut

Description

ChatCut is a web-based AI video editor that works from prompts: you tell it what you want and it figures out how to do it, then does the work. The agent is not limited to built-in features. It understands your footage, can browse your website, grab your logos, and read your marketing copy to build a video that matches your brand, and it can pull footage from YouTube, generate AI video and images, write voiceovers, and create motion graphics from a single prompt.

Core editing works like an expert editor: the agent watches your footage, understands each clip, finds highlights, cuts repeated takes, and builds a real first cut on a multi-track timeline that stays editable by hand. Text-based editing lets you edit talking-head content like a document, changing or cutting words and removing filler in the transcript while the timeline follows. Auto captions are generated from the transcript in 100+ languages with 20+ styles.

ChatCut also generates AI images and B-roll video for shots you could not film, using a reference image to keep generated shots consistent, plus a royalty-free AI music generator that creates a track at the exact length needed. It runs in the browser and can also be used from agent tools like ChatGPT and Claude Code. It is free to start with starter credits, and Pro plans add more monthly credits and exports such as ProRes 4444 with alpha.
