Recreate a viral video in Desktop with Viral Video Cloner

Send ChatCut a video link and your assets to recreate it with your own characters, visuals, and footage. Try: "/viralvideocloner, recreate this video using the assets I've provided. Replace the original characters and footage with my own." Viral Video Cloner runs in ChatCut Desktop 0.8.7 or later and needs a ChatCut paid plan. The result is created in a separate project, so your source project stays unchanged.

Version requirement: Desktop 0.8.7 or later

Try: "/auto-screen-recorder, create a walkthrough of my product's latest features. Edit the recording and add narration and motion graphics." Auto Screen Recorder runs in ChatCut Desktop on macOS 14 or later.

Version requirement: Desktop 0.8.4 or later

Add new design packaging and animated caption styles

Give your videos a polished new look with new design packaging and animated caption styles, such as Prime, Elevate, Kinetic Poster, Soft Focus and Chalk. Upload your video and ask ChatCut to generate a few options, for example: "Hi ChatCut, add polished design packaging and animated captions to my video. Show me a few styles to choose from."

Video generation

Generate video with Kling 4.0, and use Kling 3.0 again

Generate videos with Kling 4.0 using text, images, or a reference video: up to 30 seconds in one clip at 720p or 1080p, with first and last frames, up to 10 reference images and 5 reference videos. Kling 3.0 is available again for 3–15 second clips. Choose either model in Video Gen, or tell ChatCut which model you'd like to use. Both need an eligible paid plan.

Generate native 4K video with Seedance 2.0

Full Seedance 2.0 now supports native 4K for sharper, higher-resolution results. Choose 4K in Video Gen, or ask ChatCut for a 4K Seedance 2.0 clip. 4K clips are 10-bit HEVC, take noticeably longer, and cost about twice as much as 1080p. Seedance 2.5 still goes up to 1080p, and Seedance 2.0 Fast and mini up to 720p.
