How it works

Transcribing on your Mac✓ 3 clips ready
Add video files from your Mac, including clips you filmed on your phone. VidAgent transcribes and studies them on your Mac.
Prompt
A 30 second short, hook first.
Caption style
"A 30 second short, hook first." Choose a look and a caption style, or let VidAgent decide.
Make the intro snappier.
It renders on your Mac. Ask for changes in plain words, and every render is saved as a numbered version you can go back to.
Pay once, bring your AI
VidAgent is $29.99, once. No subscription. It plugs into Claude and ChatGPT through MCP, the open standard for connecting tools to AI, so the assistant you already use can plan, cut, caption and render your video right from the chat.
"Make a 30 second short from my coffee clips. Hook first, Spotlight captions."
Reads the transcript, picks the best takes, cuts at the pauses, adds captions and renders. Your clips never leave your Mac.
Ask for changes the same way. Every render is saved as a numbered version.

Connecting needs your own Claude or ChatGPT account. How the connection works
An editor, not a timeline
Most AI editors run one filter over your video. VidAgent works like a human editor. It reads the transcript, picks the best take of each line, and cuts only where you actually pause. Then it watches its own render and fixes anything that looks wrong.
Styles
A video style sets the whole look: the cuts, the cards, the B-roll and the titles. Caption styles are word-by-word captions in today's popular looks, timed to what you say.
Features
Auto trim takes out filler words, silences and retakes, and cuts only at natural pauses.
Made from what you say, timed to every word. Nothing to type, nothing to sync.
Turns landscape footage into 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, and keeps your face in the shot.
Pauses on the moment that matters, then circles or marks the right word on a label or a screen.
Cuts to your other clips, or finds product photos and images on the web to show what you're talking about.
Evens out your voice to the loudness social apps expect, adds sound effects, and keeps quiet moments quiet.
Each render is a numbered version. Compare them, chat about one, or go back with a tap.
"Make the hook shorter." "Use the second take." "More energy." Say it in plain words and it gets done.
VidAgent studies and renders your videos on the device. The AI works from transcripts and the few frames it asks to see. It asks before it shares anything, and it never uploads your original clips. Read the privacy policy
