Edit Videos with WorkBuddy and ChatCut

WorkBuddy can direct a video edit when you connect it to ChatCut. Describe the result in WorkBuddy; ChatCut applies the changes to a real project that you can review and adjust yourself.

Start with footage you already have: a talking-head recording, a product screen recording, or an interview. Get the story right first, then add captions, graphics, and other finishing layers.

Connect WorkBuddy before your first edit

Open a WorkBuddy conversation and ask it to follow the current installation guide:

Read https://chatcut.io/workbuddy and install and verify the ChatCut connection for me. Let me complete account authorization in the browser, then tell me when the tools are ready.

WorkBuddy has its own setup path. Follow its guide rather than the Codex or Claude Code installation prompt. After configuration, restart WorkBuddy or start a new session as directed, and verify that ChatCut tools appear before requesting an edit.

The hosted plugin connection is distinct from controlling a project in the native ChatCut Desktop app. See the Agent Plugin documentation for the connection and supported editing tools.

Make a talking-head video for your next post

Once connected, upload your recording through My Assets in ChatCut, or ask WorkBuddy to import your source file into the project. Explain the audience, target length, and statements that must stay.

Use ChatCut to create a project for my talking-head recording. Ask me for the footage and intended audience. Transcribe it, remove repeated takes and long pauses, and make a vertical draft around 60 seconds. Preserve the meaning of what I say. Show me the rough cut before adding captions or music.

Play the draft and check that every cut preserves the speaker’s meaning. Then ask for captions, check names and specialized terms, and adjust the framing for the intended platform.

Turn a screen recording into a product demo

Bring a screen recording, logo, and the product message you want viewers to remember. Give the agent actual product footage so the demo shows the real interface.

Use ChatCut to turn my screen recording into a short product demo. Ask me for the footage, logo, audience, and key message. Build a rough cut showing the main workflow. After I review it, add readable captions and motion graphic callouts where they clarify a step. Keep every layer editable.

Use motion graphics for an explanation or callout that helps viewers follow the workflow. Check that labels and product claims match what the footage actually shows.

Review the timeline and export

Open the ChatCut project, play it from start to finish, and check the cuts, captions, framing, and audio. Ask WorkBuddy for a specific revision or adjust the timeline directly. Then choose the output you need in the export panel.

Generated media and other metered features may use credits. Review the requested operations before running them; installation does not make every editing or generation operation free.

Set up ChatCut in WorkBuddy and start with one source recording and one clear finished result.
