# Diffusion Studio

## The professional video editor built for agents.

Analyze, design, edit, generate, and transcribe. Your agent can do all of it, and so can you.

- [Download for macOS](https://github.com/diffusionstudio/editor/releases/latest/download/Diffusion-Studio-arm64.dmg)
- [Open in browser](https://app.diffusion.studio)

## Open source, and open to any way you work.

Work in your browser, on your Mac, or straight from the terminal. Or don't do any of it yourself. Just ask your agent.

## Explore on a canvas. Sequence on a timeline.

Start with an infinite canvas, then edit on the timeline. Everything stays connected, so you can organize and iterate without losing visual context.

- Arrange scenes and assets spatially
- Switch to timeline for sequencing and timing
- Organize without losing visual context

## From raw assets to export, without switching tools.

From import to export, everything lives in one workspace, build scenes, edit on the timeline, and stay focused on the work.

- Import media without friction
- Build and compose scenes visually
- Refine timing with editorial structure
- Export directly from the same environment

## Edit video the way you design.

Editing was overdue for a rethink. We rebuilt it around the way modern design tools work. Familiar, intuitive, and capable.

- **Precise property control**. Adjust timing, position, scale, and layout from a single inspector.
- **Effects and audio built in**. Stack visual effects, mix audio, and apply filters without leaving the editor.
- **Craft the feel**. Bezier curves, spring easing, and motion presets. Every move, intentional.

## Built for creative speed.

Your ideas shouldn't wait. From first frame to final export, nothing gets in the way.

| Measure | Value | Detail |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Tool for everything | All in one | Design, edit, animate, export |
| Canvas response | <120ms | Pan, zoom, and scrub |
| Playback and export | 4K | No proxies, no waiting |
| Creators and counting | 75K+ | Across the globe |

## Diffusion Studio for Mac

The full editor on your desktop. Point your coding agent at your footage and it can watch, cut, and build right inside it.

- Requirements: macOS 12+ with an M1 chip or later.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is Diffusion Studio?

Diffusion Studio is a professional AI video editor built for agents and humans. Edit videos yourself, ask your agent to do it for you, or work together on the same project.

Everything lives on an infinite canvas with a design tool interface, while HTML, WebGL, 3D, and shaders let scenes go beyond traditional video editing.

### What can my agent do in Diffusion Studio?

Your agent can analyze footage, make edits, create and animate scenes and compositions, build motion graphics, generate video, images, audio and SFX, transcribe, localize, add captions, and export. Ask for a change, give it a complete production brief, or keep iterating together from start to finish.

### Can I edit what my agent creates?

Yes. Everything your agent creates stays fully editable. You can change anything it does, and your agent can continue from anything you change.

### Which coding agents work with Diffusion Studio?

Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, and any other coding agents can work with Diffusion Studio. Install the macOS app, activate `dapi` from the Diffusion Studio menu, and add the Diffusion Studio skill once. Then use the coding agent you already prefer. [Get started](https://diffusion.studio/download.md).

### How does Diffusion Studio work for teams?

The infinite canvas can hold hundreds of scenes, formats, languages, versions, and videos in one project. For teams, that means managing entire video productions and campaigns in one place, while agents produce and update variations without repeating the same work. Because compositions are TSX, teams can also keep reusable components and compositions in GitHub as a shared source of truth for consistent, on-brand video production.

### Do I need to install anything?

It depends. You can use Diffusion Studio entirely in your browser with nothing to install. But coding agent support and agentic editing workflows currently run through the macOS app. If you want to edit with agents, [set it up on Mac](https://diffusion.studio/download.md).

### Does Diffusion Studio work on Windows, or only on Mac?

In the browser, yes. The web version works on Windows, macOS, and Linux, and we recommend Google Chrome for the best experience. We don’t have a Windows desktop app yet, but it’s coming soon. Coding agent workflows currently require the desktop app, which is only available on macOS. On Mac, you’ll need macOS 12+ with an M1 chip or later.

### Is Diffusion Studio free?

Yes. Diffusion Studio is completely free and open source, including editing, exports, and coding agent workflows. Credits are only used when Diffusion Studio runs AI models for things like understanding footage, transcription, or generating video, images, audio, and speech. Paid plans give you credits for those AI-powered actions, not access to the editor, `dapi`, skills, or agentic editing workflows. [See pricing](https://diffusion.studio/pricing.md).

### Is Diffusion Studio open source?

Yes. Diffusion Studio is open source under MPL 2.0, including the web editor, desktop app, `dapi` CLI, and skills. Explore the source, contribute, or give us a star on [GitHub](https://github.com/diffusionstudio/editor) if you like what we're building.
