Agentic video editing

Agentic video editing, from the notes you already give.

An AI agent that reads the feedback, looks at the frames, makes the changes and hands the next version back for people to check. What that means, and how it works in post-prod.io with Claude.

In short

  • Agentic video editing means an AI agent carries out a series of editing steps itself, with real editing tools, instead of generating a new video from a prompt.
  • In post-prod.io the agent is Claude, on your own Claude account, connected through our MCP server: it reads notes, frames and transcripts, suggests edits tied to each note, and renders or uploads the next version.
  • People stay in charge: Claude's edits wait for someone on your team to accept them unless an owner turns on direct edits, and every new version gets the usual fix check.

In post-prod.io

Notes in. Next version out.

Reads the review

It reads the notes on the frame.

Claude sees every note with its frame number and timecode, the frame itself as a picture, and what's said as timed lines. Paste any post-prod.io link and it opens what the link points at.

Makes the edits

It edits with the review's own tools.

Cuts, zooms, blurs, speed, sound, colour, text fixes and captions, on exact frames, each tied to the note it answers. They show in the review as Claude's suggestions until someone on your team accepts them, and Claude can look at a frame with its edits drawn on before anything renders.

Video editing with Claude

Posts the next version

It renders, or builds, the next version.

Claude can render the cut with the accepted edits from the original, as the next version of the same file. In Claude Code it can also make a video from code on your computer, such as motion graphics, and upload it as the next version, with notes on what changed and the project files beside it.

Closes the loop

It waits for the next notes.

Share the version and Claude waits for reviewers. When a new note or reply lands, it reads it on the frame, replies, makes the change and uploads again. The fix check runs on every version, so you can see what it fixed.

The idea

What is agentic video editing?

An agent, not a preset

Most AI video features do one fixed thing the same way every time: remove silences, add captions, reframe for vertical. An agent is given a goal, like “make the changes in these notes”, and works out the steps: which frames to look at, which edit to use, and how to check its own work.

Editing, not generating

Agentic editing works on footage you already have, with editing tools, so every change can be seen, checked and undone. That's different from generating new video from a prompt.

Why review notes make a good brief

A brief for an agent has to say what to change and where. Notes pinned to frames already do that: each one is a place in the cut, a change and a reason. That's why post-prod.io starts the agent from the review, not from a blank prompt.

What it's good at, and what it isn't

An agent is good at clear, specific changes: trims, zooms, blurs, captions, speed and level changes, text fixes. Taste calls (is this the right story, does this joke land) still need a person, and so does the final approval. Treat the agent's version like any editor's: watch it and check the fixes.

End to end

How it works in post-prod.io.

  1. 1Connect post-prod.io to Claude (claude.ai, Claude Desktop or Claude Code) and sign in with your post-prod.io login. There's no key to copy.
  2. 2Ask in plain words: “Make edits for the open notes on Launch cut V2, and tie each to its note.”
  3. 3Claude reads the notes, looks at the frames and suggests the edits. You, or anyone on your team, play them and accept the ones you want.
  4. 4Claude renders the next version from the original with the accepted edits, or, in Claude Code, builds it on your computer and uploads it.
  5. 5The fix check marks each old note looks fixed, still there or can't tell, and reviewers carry on in the same link.

Questions

What is agentic video editing?

Editing where an AI agent carries out the steps itself, using editing tools, to reach a goal you give it, such as making the changes in a set of review notes. You check and approve what it did.

Is agentic video editing the same as AI video generation?

No. Generation makes new footage from a prompt. Agentic editing changes a cut you already have, with editing tools, so each change can be played, checked and undone.

Which AI does post-prod.io use?

Claude runs on your own Claude account, in claude.ai, Claude Desktop or Claude Code, so Claude's side of the work is on your Claude plan. post-prod.io gives it the tools: your notes, frames, transcripts, edits, renders and uploads. ChatGPT is coming soon.

Will the agent change my video without asking?

Not unless you let it. Claude's edits wait as suggestions for someone on your team to accept. An owner or admin can turn on Let Claude make edits without asking, in Workspace settings. Either way, every change makes a new version: nothing is overwritten, and Claude never deletes anything.

Does it work with Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve?

Claude edits with post-prod.io's own edit tools and renders from the original. If you'd rather make the changes in your editing app, the notes go to Premiere Pro as markers through our panel, and to Resolve, Final Cut Pro and Avid as marker files.

What does it cost?

The connection is part of every paid plan: Creator, Creator+ and Agency. Claude's own usage is on your Claude plan. Renders use your team's daily renders, and transcripts and fix checks use your workspace's monthly AI allowance.

Can I try post-prod.io before paying?

There's a sample video you can open and review the way a guest would, and you can test it with one upload of your own (a video up to 500 MB). Plans are paid per admin, and guests never need a seat.
