Get startedChatCut is an AI video editing plugin built for Claude Code. It installs like any other Claude Code plugin and lets you cut, caption, and edit video by describing the edit in plain language, without leaving your Claude.
Paste the install prompt into any Claude Code session. Claude Code reads the setup guide, installs the ChatCut plugin, and verifies the connection. Sign in to ChatCut then start a new session to use ChatCut.
Not on its own — Claude Code is built for writing and reviewing code. ChatCut adds AI video editing as a plugin, so the same session you use for development can also cut, caption, and export video.
Using the ChatCut Claude Code plugin is text-based video editing. You describe the cut, caption, or graphic you want, and the plugin applies it directly to the footage. There's no timeline to drag clips on, though ChatCut manages a full multi-track timeline behind the scenes.
Talking-head edits, podcast-to-short clips, app promos, product ads, UGC clips, and creator reviews — basically anything from a single trimmed clip to a fully captioned, voiced-over, multi-track edit.
No. Cutting footage, generating captions, adding B-roll, and cleaning up audio all happen inside the same Claude Code session. Claude Code orchestrates the edit, and the timeline stays live in your browser for manual tweaks.
Yes. Upload your own footage and ChatCut edits it directly. It can trim footage, remove background noise, add captions, insert motion graphics, generate B-roll, and combine everything on a multi-track timeline.
Yes. ChatCut installs as its own plugin, so it runs alongside whatever other Claude Code plugins, skills, or MCP servers you already have configured, without conflicting with your setup.
ChatCut turns Claude Code into a full AI video editor, available in the same session. You don't have to leave the workflow you're already in just to get a video edited.
Add the plugin and sign in once. There are no API keys to generate, store, or manage, so you're editing in minutes, inside the Claude Code you already use.
Cutting, captioning, motion graphics, voiceover, and AI video generation are all reachable through the single Claude Code connection — nothing needs a separate login or setup step.
The ChatCut plugin works inside the session you already have open and runs on your existing Claude Code usage, so there's nothing new to manage on top of it.
