## What is Kino?

Kino is a video editor and media library at [https://kino.ai](<https://kino.ai/>), with a company account at [https://x.com/trykino](<https://x.com/trykino>). On October 29, 2026, Luke Igel introduced it as a way to make videos end to end with Claude Code and Codex. You drop in footage, get highlights, edit together, send links for feedback, and let agents work.

The homepage says you ask for the cut, the agent reads the footage and leaves every clip on the timeline, and footage scrubs locally. Clips are transcribed and described, and RED, Blackmagic RAW, ProRes, DNxHR, and MXF play without a transcode. Motion graphics sit on Remotion, with more than 100 templates.

The desktop app runs an MCP server so ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor can search and edit from their own chat. Dot, Muse, Grok Bot, and Devin can install Kino on their own computer. Claude Code and Codex also run inside the app on the Claude or ChatGPT plan you already have.

Review comments land on the timeline. Viewers watch in a browser with no account. The pricing page says the full editor is free forever, including unlimited imports and exports, real-time collaboration, and MCP, with no credit card.

Pro adds shareable links, searchable footage, and AI editing. Credits are hours of footage. Plans start at $0 a month, and the page does not print a Pro dollar amount.
