ChatCut Desktop

Video editor built for humans & AI. Edit with GPT & Claude.

In plain words

ChatCut Desktop is an AI video editor that lets users collaborate with artificial intelligence to edit footage. Users describe their editing goals using natural language, and the software executes changes on an editable timeline. It can edit clips, generate motion graphics and captions, create video and images, and produce music and sound effects. The tool runs locally, integrates with GPT, Claude, or a built-in agent, and exports projects to professional editing software like Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve.

From the sources

Introducing ChatCut Desktop, the AI video editor built for humans and agents to edit together. Use ChatCut’s built-in agent, or connect ChatGPT/Codex or Claude Code. Say how you want your video edited and watch them happen on a fully editable timeline. Edit footage, create motion graphics and captions, generate video, images, music and SFX, and save reusable editing skills. Everything runs locally, and you stay in control. Export XML to Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or CapCut.

ChatCut is a web-based AI video editor. You tell it what you want — edit this talking head, add motion graphics, write me a script, find background music — and it figures out how to do it. The agent isn

ChatCut is an AI video editor. Tell it what you want and it figures out how, then it does the work. Use it on desktop, right in your browser, or any agent tools you prefer. The agent watches your footage, understands what each clip is about, and puts them in an order that actually makes sense. This is prompt-based video editing done properly: the AI video editor finds your highlights, cuts the repeated takes, and builds a real first cut instead of slapping a template on your footage. Chapter cards, quick charts, timelines, and emphasis effects that make creator videos easier to follow. Describe the animation in plain English and the AI motion graphics generator builds it straight onto your…from chatcut.io

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

    Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
