Meet Cuddle. Your AI's connection to Premiere Pro.
This video was created/edited using Cuddle, Premiere Pro, Remotion, and Claude Opus 5.5.

How it works

Your AI is the editor. Cuddle is the connection.

Cuddle doesn’t make creative choices. Your prompt to AI decides what the edit should be. Cuddle helps carry it out in Premiere Pro, while you focus on other tasks.

  1. Your AI appClaude, Codex, Cursor, Devin, or VS Code
  2. CuddleRuns quietly on your Mac
  3. Premiere ProCuddle’s plugin makes the edits
  • Cuddle works in the background, too. Edit in one sequence, while your AI works in another.
  • Inside Premiere, a small Cuddle panel shows the connection and your skills. Chat happens in your AI app.

Features

What your AI can do in Premiere Pro

From organizing footage to checking the final frame.

  • Projects & media

    Open projects, import footage, and keep your bins organized.

  • Find it by what was said

    Premiere transcribes your clips so your AI can jump straight to the right line.

  • Timeline editing

    Build sequences, trim and move clips, add transitions, and export.

  • Multicam

    Switch camera angles using the keyboard shortcuts you set up in Premiere.

  • Audio

    Set levels, draw fades, and add EQ, compression, and other effects.

  • Breath detection

    Spots likely breaths in dialogue so your AI can decide which ones to soften.

  • Video

    Reframe shots and apply effects like Lumetri Color, with keyframes.

  • Person & object masking

    Isolate and track people or objects for cutouts and layered effects, with adjustable edge softness.

  • Text & captions

    Add styled titles and timed captions using Premiere’s built-in Basic Title motion graphics template.

  • Markers

    Add, move, and rename markers on sequences and clips.

  • Checks its own work

    Your AI sees real frames from the finished timeline to confirm what landed.

  • Music analysis

    Beats, song sections, key, loudness, and energy, lined up with your timeline.

  • Your editing style

    Teach your AI how you like to edit with skills, right alongside the built-in ones.

Person and object masking needs macOS 15 or newer. macOS 27 adds Vision object selection.
Music analysis (beats, song sections, key, loudness, pace, and instrument activity) needs macOS 27 or newer. Breath detection and frequency spectrum analysis work on every supported Mac.

Just ask

You describe it. AI plans it. Cuddle creates it.

Example

From an interview to a first cut

Here’s what one request looks like, and who does each part.

  1. You

    Ask for what you want

    “Pull every moment where she talks about her first camera into a new sequence.”

  2. Cuddle

    Reads the transcript

    Premiere transcribes the interview, and Cuddle hands your AI every word with its exact timing.

  3. Your AI

    Picks the moments

    Your AI finds the lines that fit and decides the order.

  4. Cuddle

    Builds the sequence

    Cuddle lays those clips into a brand-new sequence. Your original timeline stays untouched.

  5. Your AI

    Checks the result

    Cuddle sends back frames from the new timeline so your AI can see what actually landed.

  6. You

    Review and export

    Watch the cut. Export normally, or have your AI do it.

Game changing

A new way to edit

  • Transform your workflow

    Take the grunt work out of the edit. Focus on the parts you enjoy most.

  • Drop the beat

    With Cuddle's music analysis, your AI understands rhythm, structure, and more.

  • Stays on your Mac

    Cuddle runs on your computer. No Cuddle cloud service. It uses your own AI service or models.
