About video-use

browser-use/video-use is an open-source agent-driven video editor from the team behind browser-use (the most-starred browser automation agent on GitHub). The workflow is conversational: drop raw footage in a folder, tell your coding agent what you want, and get final.mp4 back. The agent reads videos through audio transcripts and visual analysis rather than watching them, cuts filler words and dead space, auto color grades, burns styled subtitles, and generates animation overlays via HyperFrames, Remotion, Manim, or PIL — spawning parallel sub-agents for each animation. At 23,000+ GitHub stars, video-use has become the most popular agent-to-video tool on GitHub. It works with Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, or any agent with shell access, and persists session memory so editing projects carry context across sessions. Self-evaluation at every cut boundary catches errors before showing output.

Key Features

  • Conversational video editing — describe what you want in natural language, get a rendered final.mp4 back
  • Automatic filler word and dead space removal — cuts umms, uhs, false starts, and silence between takes
  • Parallel animation generation — spawns sub-agents for overlays via HyperFrames, Remotion, Manim, or PIL
  • Auto color grading and styled subtitle burning — warm cinematic, neutral punch, or custom ffmpeg chains
  • Self-evaluation at every cut boundary — the agent checks its own output before presenting results
  • Session memory persistence — project.md carries context so next week's session picks up where you left off

Overview

video-use is an agent-driven video editor from the browser-use team, currently at 23,000+ GitHub stars. The premise is that video editing is a sequence of decisions that a coding agent can make by reading transcripts and visual metadata rather than watching footage in real time. You drop raw takes in a folder, chat with your agent, and get a finished video back — no timeline UI, no presets, no menus.

Key Capabilities

The technical approach avoids giving the LLM raw video frames. Instead, video-use builds two analysis layers. Layer one is an audio transcript via ElevenLabs Scribe — word-level timestamps, speaker diarization, and audio events like laughter or applause, packed into a compact text representation the agent can reason over. Layer two adds visual analysis for shot composition, motion, and scene boundaries. Together, these give the agent enough information to make word-boundary-precise editing decisions.

The editing pipeline handles the full post-production stack: filler word removal, dead space trimming, color grading (warm cinematic, neutral punch, or custom ffmpeg filter chains), 30ms audio fades at every cut to eliminate pops, and styled subtitle burning. Animation overlays are generated in parallel — each one spawns its own sub-agent using HyperFrames, Remotion, Manim, or PIL depending on the animation type.

The self-evaluation loop is a key design choice. After rendering each segment, video-use checks the output at every cut boundary before presenting it. This catches misaligned cuts, audio artifacts, and visual glitches before the human ever sees them.

Use Cases

  • Content creators editing talking-head videos, tutorials, or interviews without learning a traditional NLE
  • Teams producing montage-style content from multiple raw takes with minimal manual editing
  • Developers building automated video pipelines where editing decisions are made programmatically by agents
  • Anyone with raw footage and a coding agent who wants a finished video without touching a timeline
