The clipping agent

Clip from a prompt — everywhere you work

Give Katto a long-form video and a goal. It finds the strongest moments, writes captions, reframes to 9:16, and schedules — from the app, your terminal, or any AI assistant. A tool needs a person clicking in a dashboard; an agent takes a plain-language goal from a chat, a script, or an AI assistant. Same agent, same quota, everywhere.

From one prompt

“Clip yesterday’s webinar, add captions, and schedule 3 shorts this week at 9am.”

→ First clip in ~4–5 minutes. No manual selection.

One agent, three surfaces

AI assistants
MCP

Connect Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, VS Code or Windsurf to the hosted MCP server. One-click OAuth 2.1 — no key on disk — or an sk_live_ key on the same URL.

Terminal
CLI

Run the whole pipeline from your shell or a cron. Submit, poll, fetch clips — with --json for scripts and an idempotency key on every submit.
