ChatCut is a lightweight, professional-grade AI video editor anyone can use, even without editing experience. It’s like having a personal video editing assistant that understands your footage, intent, and timeline. Make structural edits, fine-tune cuts, add captions, B-roll, music, voiceover, motion graphics, stock footage, and AI-generated video in one place. Every edit stays editable on a real timeline, with XML export when you want to keep working elsewhere.

I'm Alima, co-founder of ChatCut and award video producer. I’ve spent years producing ads, documentaries, and branded content, and editing was always the most painful part of the process.

When we started building ChatCut, we thought we were building for editors. But pretty quickly, we realized the pain was much bigger than that. YouTubers, TikTokers, businesses, teachers, doctors, founders — everyone in the world is making video now, and almost no one enjoys editing.

Editing software is powerful, but it still feels stuck in another era. As video became part of every job, we felt there needed to be a different kind of editor.

We spent a lot of time thinking about where AI actually belongs in video editing. Not as a one-click generator, and not as a gimmick on the side, but as an editing assistant that understands your footage, your intent, and the timeline.

That’s what we’re building with ChatCut: a full video editor with an autonomous AI agent, a professional timeline, built-in stock footage, sound effects, transitions, and built-in generation tools like Seedance 2, GPT Image 2, Nano Banana, ElevenLabs voices.

You shouldn’t need ten different platforms to finish one video. And AI should help where it’s actually useful, while humans keep control of the story and the final cut.

AI won’t replace human creativity, but it will change how we work. We’re building ChatCut to be part of that change.

I’m Kaiwen, co-founder of ChatCut. Before building this, I spent years making documentaries, commercials, and short films for VICE, Discovery, and brand clients.

The thing that bothered us was simple:

AI was getting very good at generating images and video.

But editing was still stuck in the old workflow.

You could generate more footage than ever, but turning raw material into a clean, watchable video still meant scrubbing timelines, cutting dead air, finding the good moments, adding captions, making motion graphics, looking for B-roll, fixing music, and repeating the same tiny operations again and again.

And most “AI video editors” were not really editing. They were removing filler words, adding captions, or generating pixels.

That is useful, but it misses the real job.

Editing is not just removing the bad parts. Editing is deciding what the story is.

So we built ChatCut as an AI video editing assistant that works inside a real editor.

You can upload footage and ask it to:

creatively edit from your directions, prompts, or script

clean up talking-head videos and turn them into social reels

generate style-consistent, editable motion graphics

create B-roll, images, music, and voice

apply or even generate custom effects and transitions

make timeline edits you can still manually tweak

The important part: ChatCut does not trap you in a template. It gives you an editable timeline.

Our bet is that the future of video editing is not “press one button and accept whatever AI gives you.”

It is closer to working with a very fast assistant editor: you explain the intention, it does the rough work, and you stay in creative control.

ChatCut is already useful for talking-head creators, founders, educators, marketers, ecommerce teams, TikTokers, internal training teams, and many other people turning raw footage into publishable video.

It is also still imperfect in exactly the ways a real AI editing agent is hard: taste, timing, reliability, and performance with long or heavy video files.

That is why we are launching here.

If you make videos, I’d love for you to try ChatCut on a real piece of footage and tell us where it feels magical, where it still feels dumb, and what would make it part of your weekly workflow.

My co-founder and I are here all day answering questions. Honest feedback wanted.

Hey everyone! I'm Finn, co-founder of ChatCut.

Before this, I built a video editor used by hundreds of millions of people. My co-founders have worked on top-tier commercials and short films.

Still, video editing felt harder than it should be.

A large part of video editing is the execution work between an idea and a finished video: managing and searching through lots of footage, comparing different cuts, and creating all the post-production polish.Traditional editors are powerful, but they are still built around professional workflows and can take a long time to learn.

So we built ChatCut.

ChatCut is an AI video editor. You describe what you want, and ChatCut's agent helps you edit the video. It can understand your footage, find good takes, clean up talking-head videos, add motion graphics, captions, music, transitions, effects, and even generate image or video assets when needed.

So far, we've seen people use ChatCut for:

• Talking-head videos
• App promo videos
• E-commerce product ads
• Explainer videos
• AI short films

These are just examples. You can also explore many other video ideas with it.

We also built ChatCut for different types of creators. -If you don't know how to edit, you can edit entirely by talking to the agent. -If you want to fine-tune things yourself, ChatCut also has a full video editor. You can adjust everything manually, or export XML and continue editing in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve.

ChatCut is available on the web and desktop.And if you use Codex, you can turn it into a video editor with one prompt:

"Turn Codex into a Video Editor, read chatcut.io/codex"

It installs the ChatCut plugin and lets Codex help you edit videos too.

We think video editing should feel less like busywork and more like shaping ideas.Just like vibe coding made it easier to build software, we hope chatcutting can make video creation easier too.

We're still early, and we'd be happy to hear your feedback and keep improving from there.

Thanks for taking a look.
