Kino AI
The collaborative video editor, built for humans and agents alike.
Kino is a collaborative video editor that runs in the browser, designed to keep footage, teammates, and AI agents working together in one place. It addresses the friction of managing large media libraries and coordinating edits across teams by making timelines shareable as URLs, enabling real-time collaboration without version conflicts or emailing project files.
Key features include semantic search across footage using natural language, transcripts, or visual content; agentic editing that builds rough cuts and adds to the timeline through conversation; and generated motion graphics such as lower thirds, animated charts, and kinetic titles. Kino imports projects from Premiere and DaVinci, and supports local file scrubbing alongside remote proxy streaming. It also offers MCP tool calls for integration with external agents.
Kino is aimed at editors, filmmakers, and creators at varying skill levels. It offers a free plan with limited AI indexing, chat credits, cloud storage, and MCP tool calls, plus a Pro plan with expanded allowances and usage-based pricing for additional indexing, chat credits, storage, and seats. An Enterprise tier provides custom AI usage, unlimited proxy storage, and dedicated support.
