Cardboard is an agentic AI video editor that runs in the browser and as a Mac app. You describe your edit and Cardboard cuts, captions, reframes and composes the video for you.
You start with a prompt, your own footage or both, and Cardboard builds an editable first cut. You then refine it through chat requests or directly on the timeline, and share a link for feedback or export the finished video.
To build the story, it can generate video, images, music and sound effects, create motion graphics from a prompt, clone your voice for narration, source relevant B-roll from the web and use links to videos you like as references.
Editing tools remove dead air, filler words and retakes, pull the best moments from long recordings, add captions and reframe footage for vertical formats such as Reels.
It works on any computer with Chrome plus a Mac app for Apple Silicon. The Mac app edits and exports locally and works with Claude Code and Codex, and any agent can drive Cardboard through its CLI or MCP server. Videos export as MP4, MOV and more at up to 4K, and timelines can be sent to Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve.
Pricing: paid plans are Lite, Starter, Creator and Pro, with launch discounts on the first month. Regular prices range from about 8 to 175 US dollars a month on annual billing, with higher tiers adding generative credits, premium models, voice cloning and 4K exports.
It is suited to founders, marketers, creators and teams who want to make product, launch and social videos without traditional editing work.
