Kino is an AI video editor for teams and AI agents, where footage, edits and review notes are kept in one place.
You ask for the cut and Kino's agent reads your footage, makes the edit and leaves every clip on the timeline so you can adjust it yourself. Every creative decision is exposed to both you and the agent.
Key features include an AI editing agent, motion graphics and animation built on Remotion, a what-you-see-is-what-you-get editor for fine tweaks, more than 100 templates for titles, maps, captions and transitions, and the ability to manage many variants of a video.
Kino also acts as a footage library. Every clip is transcribed, described shot by shot and searchable by what is said and what is on screen, and you can filter by codec, camera, lens and shoot day. Saved filters become smart bins that fill as footage arrives. It handles professional formats such as RED, Blackmagic RAW and MXF.
For review, you send a link and comments land on the timeline, where the agent can respond to them. Cloud proxy storage lets collaborators stream footage when original files are not available.
It works with your own agents through an MCP server, including Claude Code and ChatGPT, and is available as a macOS download.
Pricing: a Free plan includes 100 MCP tool calls a week, unlimited imports and exports, AI editing with your own agents and unlimited viewers. Editor costs US$25 per editor per month (US$20 billed yearly) with unlimited MCP calls and real-time collaboration. Editor Plus costs US$200 per editor per month and adds agent and Seedance credits, extra storage and priority Slack support.
It is suited to video teams, agencies and creators who want an agent-assisted editing, storage and review workflow.
