Watch KoraCut in 80 seconds

A complete studio.Free. With agents.

Editing, color, sound, motion design: all in one window, free and open source, built in Dakar by Amadou Ba on top of Kdenlive. The agents, the Editor, the Colorist, the Mixer, the Motion designer, work inside your project while you direct. Auto cut removes silences, a new project sets itself up for the kind of video you make, and Claude Code drives the app end to end.

The agents

You direct.They execute.

Each agent is a specialist. You talk to them like a team, in plain English, in one sentence, and they work in parallel, inside your project. Each one hands you proposals; you approve, correct or reject. Nothing moves without you. The agents come on subscription; the app stays free without them.

The studio

Six crafts.One window.

Editing, color, sound, VFX, photo, illustration: everything lives in the same project, with nothing to export and re-import. Switch module with one key; the agents follow.

    Multitrack timeline, razor, ripple, slip, snapping. The Editor logs footage while you cut.

    Color wheels, curves, RGB parade, 3D LUTs. Before and after in one gesture.

    ⌘3

How it works

Three moves.

  1. Import your footage

    Video, photos, sound: drop everything into the project. The agents index, transcribe and spot the best takes.

  2. Describe what you want

    "A 40-second teaser, fast pace, warm look, voice up front." In plain English, as you would to a team.

  3. Approve, adjust, export

    Every proposal can be changed frame by frame. Nothing ships without your say, then export in 4K, vertical, or audio only.

Open source, for real

Free and open.The agents,on subscription.

  • $0, forever.

    The complete app, no trial, no tiers, no watermark. Every module and every export, for everyone.

  • The code is yours.

    You can read it, change it, recompile it. Your footage stays on your machine.

  • The agents, if you want them.

    The Editor and the others work on subscription, from $20 a month. That is what pays for their computing and for the development of the free app.
