ChatCut Desktop

Looks good! congratulations on your launch

Congrats!!! Do you do transcriptions?

Congrats on the desktop launch. You let people run it on the ChatGPT or Claude Code tokens they already pay for, which makes core editing free. That is a lot to give away.

Looks really useful. Congrats on the launch!

Congrats on the launch! An AI video editor that actually works with GPT + Claude sounds interesting. How long takes the setup process?

Hey Product Hunt 👋Excited to hunt ChatCut Desktop today! I’ve watched this team listen closely to their community since their ChatGPT/Codex plugin launch, and this release is a direct answer to what creators kept asking for: bigger files, faster editing, and full local control.The token model is what stands out to me. Connect your existing ChatGPT/Codex or Claude Code subscription and get core editing for free. That’s a genuinely creator-first move.Go check it out and tell the team what you think 🎬

I think that CapCut has a competiton :)

Turning a 20-minute interview into a 2-minute reel with just a prompt is a great use case. How well does it pick the right moments in longer, messier raw footage?

Congrats on the launch! Love the idea of connecting AI agents directly to the editing workflow. Curious to see how far this can go

One of our users, Justin, created a tutorial on how he uses the desktop app. If you’re wondering how to get started, check it out here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeiVz_P6F5c&t=579s

Putting XML export behind the subscription is the pricing decision I'd watch. Local editing and letting people bring their own Claude Code tokens are the generous parts, but export to Premiere and Resolve is the escape hatch, and charging for the escape hatch is what makes people feel locked in even when the rest is free. Gating Seedance and Kling generation makes sense because that's real marginal cost. The handoff isn't.

Hi Product Hunt! Last month, we launched our ChatGPT/Codex plugin and received incredible support from this community.One of the most consistent pieces of feedback was that you loved being able to connect your own agent, but wanted to work with larger files and have a faster, more reliable editing experience.So we built ChatCut Desktop.It includes everything you can do with our web app and plugin, but in a local environment. Your footage stays on your computer, and editing and exporting happen locally. You can use ChatCut’s built-in agent or connect your existing ChatGPT/Codex or Claude Code subscription and use the tokens you already pay for, making ChatCut’s core editing features free to use. A ChatCut subscription is only required for pro features such as Seedance and Kling video generation, XML export, AI voice generation, and voice cloning.Today, ChatCut is used by creators editing talking-head videos, tiktoks, reels and shorts, businesses producing ads and branded content, companies creating social content, internal videos and product updates, and AI filmmakers making films.Give ChatCut Desktop a try, and please send us any feedback, suggestions, or questions at team@chatcut.io. We’d love to hear what you think. Go create something!
