Cardboard - Cursor for video editing
by•
Cardboard is an agentic video editor that gets you from raw footage to final cut in minutes.
Think of it like an intelligent collaborator, one that understands what's in your clips, has the taste to know what a good edit looks like, and executes your vision.

Congratulations on the launch! I'd love to know if Cardboard can help me speed up my flow for fetching, cropping/editing videos from multiple sources (usually Youtube/Reddit/Instagram etc. ) to be then exported and sent out via Whatsapp etc.
I love cropping + making edits to videos to fit a certain hyperspecific context (think memes tailored to a group of < 15 people) and my current flow is a bit tedious: I have to download the video from its original source using third party applications, then edit it manually using either the Photos app or other third party applications if I have to make more complicated changes like adding text etc. Would love to know if Cardboard has any features in the pipeline that can help accelerate this end-to-end flow!

@ameya_deshmukh3 Thanks for the kind words!
Fetching footage directly from YouTube/Reddit/Instagram isn't something we support right now. You'd still need to bring in the raw footage yourself.
That said, we've heard this from quite a few users and have a couple of ideas in the works, either generating assets for you directly, or pulling relevant ones from the web.
For everything after that though, if you bring in the footage, the agent can handle the reframing, cropping, and fitting it to whatever hyper-specific context you have in mind. Adding text, adjusting for format, that's exactly the kind of thing it's built for.
We update our changelog pretty much every week if you want to follow along: usecardboard.com/changelog. Would love to have you try it! : )

Appreciate it, coming from you@daffinity ! ✨
this looks incredibly exciting, congrats on the launch. does it resync the timeline if we change the music later? that’s honestly my biggest pain point in editing videos.

@gourish_narang
yes, just ask it "hey i just changed the music to @mentionthetrackhere - can you resync the timeline?"

Awesome let's go guys - super bullish on Cardboard - think this might actually get the DaVinci users to move over

Pieces for Developers
Ishan is a wonderful person. For quite a long time, ever since we used to speak a lot about WebAssembly and we also met at JSConf India in 2023. He is a super, super talented person, and I'm just so glad to see him launch such an amazing product, which is live today now. Kudos to the team for building this and this overall user experience of having an authentic video editor and how that should look. This is the tool; so much thought and effort has gone into the UI/UX and just being able to create videos on the fly, having that chat-like prompt to be able to distribute the videos and have really, really slick, clean UI for doing editing on the fly. It's just massive, right, so proud of what they've been able to do and support this launch throughout.

@joeharrison Thanks Joe, there's so many exciting things we're shipping every week.
Excited for what's next!
This looks really exciting! I’ve been waiting years for a product like this, but with pricing starting at $60 a month, obviously this is aimed at businesses and not at individuals. I hope you are successful and there is some path towards launching a consumer product with a much lower price point. It would also be exciting if there was a local client, something that didn’t force customers to upload gigabytes of video footage. Not everyone has a fast pipe so this could be limiting in some scenarios.

@jasonrdunn
I hear you Jason, we don't have to upload the entire footage to get started with editing, we only upload that for collab/cloud sync so that it is accessible on all of your devices.
For our ingestion pipelines we just upload small byte sized chunks of the footage.
