TEMPLATE = a shipped template, filled in from your words. SESSION = directed with Claude over a working session. The tiles play compressed web previews; your renders are full 1080×1920 files. Most demos are silent here; the 28-second ad and the podcast clip have sound.

The problem

The feed wants a video every day. Editors charge per video.

Hire an editor.

$50

Posting every day, that's $1,500 a month. Studio is $99, once: less than 2 edits at your price.

Do it yourself.

An evening in a timeline for 30 seconds of video. Then again tomorrow.

Try an AI video app.

Credits that run out. Words that come out warped. A logo that's almost yours.

Or type /vstudio.

One payment from $49. Your Mac does the rendering, so there's nothing to meter and nothing to pay per video.

How it works

Claude on the left. Your studio on the right.

Install it with a double-click. Then keep talking to Claude like you always do: the V LAB Studio window builds what you say, live, and plays it the second it's done.

01 / 05

Install. Type /vstudio.

Double-click the file and it adds itself to Claude Desktop. No terminal, no code. The first run downloads the render engine (about 1 GB). Type /vstudio and the studio opens beside your chat.

02 / 05

Tell it who you are. Once.

Creator, café, salon, agency… Your name, colours and logo are saved, and you get templates and ready prompts for your niche.

03 / 05

Describe the video.

Say it the way you'd brief an editor. Add a screenshot, a logo, a product photo or a clip. Here, Mila, a fitness creator, launches her own workout app from one screenshot.

04 / 05

Watch it build.

Scenes appear. Preview frames fill in. An AI art director checks the frames before anything renders. Then your Mac renders it.

05 / 05

Change anything. Post it.

Say it, or tap it: format, text, colours, versions. Every version renders again, with no credits. Try the four versions in the window.

No timeline. No keyframes. Render credits used: 0.

Illustration of the studio. The four videos are real V LAB Studio renders of the same project, shown as compressed web previews (the renders are 1080×1920).

You'll need a Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or later) on macOS 13.3 or later, and Claude Desktop for Mac with a Claude account. The first run downloads the render engine (about 1 GB) and needs the internet. We recommend a paid Claude plan (Pro, about $20/month, billed by Anthropic): a video takes many steps. New to Claude?

For you

Made for people who post.

Creators and influencers first, and anyone who needs video. “What do you do?” is the first thing V LAB Studio asks you. Pick yours: a week of posts you could make, what it replaces, and prompts you can paste today.

Post a pro video every day. No editor.

Talk to camera, drop in the clip, get the edit. Hooks, captions and 3D openers for the days you don't film.

Your week · 7 posts you could make

  1. MonHookWhy nobody finishes your videos

What it replaces

  • A freelance editor at $50–300 a video
  • Evenings in CapCut cutting pauses and timing captions by hand
  • Hunting for music and sound effects you're allowed to use

  • Hook for tomorrow: 'Why does nobody finish your videos?' Purple, punchy.
  • Here's my raw clip. Cut the pauses, caption it and zoom on the key words.
  • Turn 'Stop posting. Start telling.' into a 3D opener.

An example week and example prompts: brands, names, numbers and places in them are invented, and your words replace them. Moving tiles are watermarked samples made with V LAB Studio.

You'll need

A Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or later) and macOS 13.3 or later, with about 2 GB free (the on-device transcription for Edit my video is built for macOS 13.3+) · the internet on the first run, which downloads the render engine (about 1 GB) · Claude Desktop for Mac with a Claude account · we recommend a paid Claude plan (Pro, about $20/month, billed by Anthropic), because a video takes many steps and free-plan limits run out fast · if your company has 4 or more people, a Remotion company licence. Windows: not supported yet.

Other costs, said plainly

What you pay us: once, plus the Club only if you want it. What you might pay others: your Claude plan (Anthropic), and a Remotion company licence if your company has 4+ people. From us: no credits, no per-video fees. After the 12 months of included updates, we may offer further updates for a fee: buying them is optional, never automatic, and the version you own keeps working without them.

FAQ

Questions, answered straight.

What is V LAB Studio, exactly?
The video studio for Claude: a paid plugin for Claude Desktop on Mac. Type /vstudio in a Claude chat and the studio opens next to it. You say what you want, pick a template or drop in your own clip, and the studio makes the video on your Mac. Unlike CapCut or Premiere, you don't edit by hand. Unlike AI video generators, there are no credits and no random results. It's something you install, not a website you log into.
How long does a video take?
Measured on our test Mac (M1 Pro, 16 GB): an 8-second video renders in about 12 to 17 seconds. A custom video adds about 2 to 5 minutes while the AI art director checks the preview frames. With Edit my video, a 74.5-second raw selfie clip was transcribed on the Mac in about 14 seconds and rendered in 9:16 in about 2.5 minutes. Your chat with Claude comes on top.
Do I need Claude? How much of my plan does it use?
Yes. V LAB Studio runs next to Claude Desktop for Mac, and you need a Claude account. Claude is the director: it plans the scenes, writes the words and checks the frames. We recommend a paid Claude plan (Pro, about $20/month, billed by Anthropic, not by us), because a video takes many steps and free-plan limits run out fast. How much it uses depends on the video: a template takes a few messages, a custom video takes more because Claude plans every scene and the art director reviews the frames. We haven't measured a fixed number of videos per plan, so we won't promise one. Quick edits in the studio window (format, text, colours, versions) and every render run on your Mac and don't use Claude at all.
Will it work on my Mac?
You need a Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or later) and macOS 13.3 or later, plus about 2 GB free and the internet on the first run, which downloads the render engine (about 1 GB). The on-device transcription behind Edit my video is built for Apple silicon on macOS 13.3 or later, so please don't pre-order on an Intel Mac or an older macOS. If your Mac turns out not to be supported, you get a full refund before delivery or within the 14 days after it. On Windows? Not yet, so please don't pre-order yet.
Why not just use CapCut?
CapCut is a good editor, and if all you need is captions on clips you cut by hand, it may be enough. V LAB Studio is for what a timeline doesn't do from one sentence: motion-design videos built for you (3D products, kinetic type, launches, listings), your brand applied to every video, and changes you ask for in words instead of dragging clips. Plenty of creators will use both.
Can I edit videos I filmed myself? In which languages?
Yes, with Studio or Agency. Drop your raw clip into Edit my video: it cuts the pauses, adds word-by-word captions, zooms on the key words, and adds effects, music and sound effects from our own library. Speech is transcribed on your Mac with Whisper, an open-source speech model, and the language is detected automatically: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian and most widely spoken languages. If it mishears a name, tell Claude the right spelling and it fixes it.
Which edition should I pick?
  • Creator if you want to try it on your own channels: 10 essential templates and custom videos.
  • Studio if you post every day, talk to camera, want all 20 templates and your brand on everything. That's most creators and businesses, and with the Club it's also the cheapest first year.
  • Agency if you make videos for clients.
What's the V LAB Club, and why is it cheaper with Agency?
An optional monthly add-on with the same content for every edition: 10 new templates every month, new sounds in the SFX library and new 3D effect packs. With Creator, the sounds go on your templates and custom videos; with Studio and Agency, on the clips you edit too. Club templates are new designs: they don't unlock a bigger edition's templates. The price depends on the edition you own: $50 with Creator, $35 with Studio, $25 with Agency. The more you paid upfront, the less you pay each month. It opens on ship day, Oct 16, and you need an edition to join.
If I cancel the Club, what do I keep?
Everything you received while you were in it. Templates, sounds and 3D packs already in your studio stay unlocked. You just stop getting new ones.
What if a Claude Desktop update breaks it?
Compatibility updates are included for 12 months from delivery (from your order date if you buy on or after Oct 16, 2026), and fixing V LAB Studio when Claude Desktop changes is exactly what they're for. After 12 months, the version you own keeps working. If we offer further updates for a fee, buying them is optional, never automatic. We don't control Claude Desktop, so we can't promise every future change can be worked around. Details in the Licence.
What does it cost after I buy?
Nothing from us, unless you choose the Club. Your edition is one payment and keeps working: no credits, no per-video fees, unlimited renders on your Macs. The V LAB Club is optional: $50, $35 or $25 a month, depending on your edition. After the 12 months of included updates, we may offer further updates for a fee: optional, never automatic, and your version keeps working without them. Outside us there are two possible costs: your Claude plan (Anthropic; we recommend Pro, about $20/month), and, only if your company has 4 or more people, a Remotion company licence.
What if I don't like it?
Reply to your receipt within 14 days after delivery, counted from the day after: until the end of Oct 30, 2026 for Creator and Studio, and Nov 6, 2026 for Agency (its 14 days start when its tools arrive). You get a full refund. No form needed, no call. Before it ships, you can cancel any time for a full refund. The Club is separate: it renews monthly until you cancel, and you keep everything you received. Your first Club payment is refunded in full within 14 days if you haven't used any Club content yet; after that, months already paid aren't refunded.
Is this just another AI video generator?
No. Generators invent footage from a prompt. That's great for cinematic shots and unreliable for exact words and logos. V LAB Studio builds motion design. Your logo is your file, your text is typed and your colours are your codes, so nothing melts or morphs and your words come out exactly as you wrote them. Plenty of people use both.
What happens when I pre-order?
You pay today and lock the founding price. Your licence key comes with your receipt. On Oct 16, 2026 (Paris time), every edition gets an email with the download link and install steps: double-click it and it's in Claude Desktop. Agency's extra tools (Brand Engine, Batch, Content Calendar, client brand kits) arrive by Oct 23. Until it ships, you can cancel any time for a full refund. New to Claude? Start here.
Can I use the videos commercially, or sell them to clients?
Your own business, channels and ads: yes, on every edition. Making videos for paying clients needs Agency's client licence. Music and sound effects come from our own library, licensed for your videos. You need the rights to any logo, photo, footage or music you bring in.
Does my footage leave my Mac?
Rendering and caption transcription happen on your Mac, and we never receive your videos. What you type or attach in the chat goes to Claude, as in any Claude conversation, and so do the preview frames the studio shows Claude so it can check them. With Edit my video, your clip and its audio stay on your Mac, but the transcript (the words you said) and the clip's file path go to Claude so it can plan the edit. When Claude looks for an image you mentioned, it sees small thumbnails of your newest images in your screenshots folder, Desktop, Downloads and Pictures. Privacy policy
Is this made by Anthropic?
No. V LAB Studio is an independent plugin, not made by or affiliated with Anthropic, and not endorsed or sponsored by it. It's built for Claude Desktop by one maker. Claude is a trademark of Anthropic, PBC.
