Use Claude to edit videos and add captions. Drop your footage in a folder, tell
Claude what you want, get final.mp4 back. No timeline, no menus, no presets.
edit these into a 60-second promo with lower-third captions, no voiceover
umm, uh), false starts, and dead space between takesClaude never watches the video frame by frame. It reads it (transcript + on-demand timeline previews), so it cuts on word boundaries and stays cheap and fast. It proposes a cut, waits for your OK, renders, checks every cut for jumps and audio pops, then shows you the result.
git clone https://github.com/assafkip/claude-video-editor && cd claude-video-editor
./install.sh
install.sh checks the prereqs (ffmpeg, Node 20+, headless Chrome, Python), sets up
the engine, and asks once for an ElevenLabs key
(used for transcription).
Then register it with Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add ./ # from the repo dir
/plugin install claude-video-editor
cp -r templates/project ~/my-video && cd ~/my-video
# drop clips into sources/, open Claude Code, then:
edit these into a launch video
Outputs land in edit/. Your session is remembered in project.md so next time picks
up where you left off.
Three open-source layers, bundled to work together:
Each keeps its own license (see LICENSES/). This bundle is MIT.
The demo video on claudedaddy.io was made with this editor, by typing sentences.
The engine here is free and stays free. The Launch Video Kit ($49) adds the production system around it: three recipes (launch video from pure HTML, tutorial edit from a screen recording, website-to-promo), the worked templates behind the demo video, and a one-paste setup that installs everything for you.
