Video Use

Edit your raw footage into a finished video by asking Claude Code.

What is it?

Drop your raw clips in a folder, open Claude Code there and describe the video you want. It cuts filler words and dead air, colour grades each clip, adds short fades so cuts don't pop, burns in captions in your style and can add animated overlays. You get a finished MP4 next to your footage.

Claude works from a word-by-word transcript with timestamps and only looks at still frames where it needs to decide on a cut. It proposes a plan and waits for your OK before editing, and it checks the finished video at every cut before showing you.

It needs FFmpeg on your computer and an ElevenLabs API key for the transcription, which you pay ElevenLabs for. A hosted version is on a waitlist.

Install in Claude Code

Paste this into Claude Code: Set up https://github.com/browser-use/video-use for me. Read install.md first to install this repo, wire up ffmpeg, register the skill and set up the ElevenLabs API key. Claude asks for your ElevenLabs API key once.
