Yes. Both offer AI generation, agent editing on an editable timeline, and connections to Claude Code and Codex. ChatCut is a fit if you want Mac or Windows desktop editing alongside a web app; Invideo also offers phone apps. Is Invideo only a prompt-to-video generator? No. Invideo Editor supports uploaded footage, agent edits and manual changes on a multitrack timeline. ChatCut also combines generation with timeline editing, so compare the workflows for your actual footage rather than assuming Invideo only produces finished clips. Is ChatCut free? Yes. The Free plan includes the editor, uploads, transcription, captions and standard exports. AI generation and the built-in agent use credits, and AI video generation needs a paid plan. [See ChatCut pricing](https://pr-821-preview.chatcut.dev/pricing) Can I use ChatCut from Claude Code or Codex? Yes. The ChatCut plugin runs in Claude Code and the Codex app, and ChatCut Desktop connects Claude Code, Codex and other agents through a local MCP server. Your agent edits the real timeline, which you can keep adjusting by hand. [How the plugin works](https://pr-821-preview.chatcut.dev/docs/chatcut-products) Can I finish a ChatCut edit in another editor? Yes. ChatCut exports XML timelines for Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, and ChatCut Desktop also exports editable CapCut drafts. It does not export Final Cut Pro XML (FCPXML).
