openfilm

by openfilm

OpenFilm lets a coding agent such as Claude Code or Codex build videos as web pages, with a local browser-based editor for changing anything it makes. It is for making and editing films, motion graphics and launch videos, and exporting them as MP4 or to professional editing software.

New and promisingUnder two months old. Expect rough edges and fast changes.

What you can do with it

  • Ask a coding agent to make a short launch or explainer video with music, then watch it take shape in the editor
  • Edit text, layers, clips, timing and subtitles by hand on a timeline
  • Export to MP4, GIF, transparent video, or a timeline for Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve

Make money with it

A freelancer could offer fast, low-cost promo and explainer video production for small businesses, using an agent to draft and the editor to polish.

An idea, not financial advice. Check the licence before charging for anything built on it.

Ways a business could use it

  • Produce product demos, launch videos and social clips in-house without paying for a video editor or agency
  • Create branded motion graphics and explainer videos for clients, and hand over editable projects

Can you use it commercially?

Free to use, change and sell, including in paid products. Keep the copyright notice.

Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.

Getting it running

Needs Node 22.2+ and ffmpeg, then run "npx skills add openfilm/openfilm" so your agent can use it, or download the desktop app for macOS or Windows, which bundles everything.

Follow the official instructions in the project README.

Things to check

  • Needs a coding agent, which may itself require a paid subscription or API key
  • Generated voice, music, images and video need your own paid provider keys (ElevenLabs, OpenAI, Google, fal)
  • Studio works best in a Chromium-based browser
