The Last Penalty: Eleven Metres Through the Keeper's Eyes
A 30-second hand-drawn Claude video: Claude Opus 5.5 wrote, animated, narrated and scored it from one prompt in 19 minutes. Make your own Claude video at KitCut.
Made for a series, not a one-off
An explainer is rarely needed once. A channel needs the next episode, a help center the next article's video, a newsletter next week's briefing. KitCut keeps a series' brief, look, narrator, characters and brand in a project, so each new episode is a topic, not a production.
For YouTube channels
- Explainers on what you know: a sport, history, science, money, the news
- A long episode, then a week of Shorts cut from it
- Cartoon series with the same characters and catchphrases every time
- Titles, thumbnails and the channel's calendar, done by KitCut
For companies
- A film for every help article, from screenshots of your app
- A short film with every release
- A customer-education series that teaches the job your product does
- Market and data briefings, every chart with its source

Not a video model. A video written in code.
Video models such as Seedance, Sora, Veo and Kling generate pixels: a few seconds per clip, with words that warp and charts, maps and posts that only look right. KitCut runs Claude Opus 5.5 the way Claude Code works on software: it looks the topic up, then writes the whole video as a program, every chart, map, label and caption drawn in code and timed to the narrator, and checks stills of its own work before it is rendered. So an explainer can show the real thing. Every frame below is from a KitCut video on YouTube.






| Seedance, Sora, Veo, Kling | KitCut | |
|---|---|---|
| One video | a few seconds a clip, joined by hand | minutes long, planned as a whole (up to 8 on Pro) |
| Words and numbers | often warped or invented | typed, spelt as written, from sources it names |
| Charts, maps, posts, pages | imitations that look plausible | the real ones |
| Narration | a voice per clip, if any | one narrator for the whole video, each word timed to the picture |
| Next week's episode | faces and styles drift | the same characters, look, voice and music |
| A change | prompt again and hope | a note on the spot; Claude changes that and keeps the rest |
| Photoreal footage | yes | no: hand-drawn, painted or collage |
A series that publishes itself, in minutes a day
Your AI assistant is the producer and KitCut is the studio: the assistant finds the topic and writes the brief, and KitCut makes the video and puts it where it goes. It works the same for a channel's next episode and a help center's next article.
- Start a seriesA project with one brief: who it is for, the tone, the narrator, how each episode opens and ends, your logo or your whole brand. Every episode reads it, and its characters come back.
- Connect where it goesConnect your YouTube channel, and KitCut writes each video's title, description, tags and four thumbnails and schedules it on the channel's next free day, or every new episode goes out by itself. Or download each film for your site, product or emails.
- Connect your AI assistantClaude, ChatGPT, Grok, Meta AI (Muse) or Claude Code researches topics with real sources, or reads your docs and release notes, brainstorms the next episodes from what worked, and has KitCut make the ones you pick.
- Put it on a scheduleA scheduled task in Claude or ChatGPT makes and schedules the next episode every day while you are away. Each one waits on the calendar until its day, so there is time to watch it first.

The right model for every part, chosen for you
A KitCut video is made by several AI models, each doing what it does best, and KitCut decides which one does what. You never compare models, keep API keys or pay any of them separately: one credit is one second of finished video.
Directs: the research, the script, every drawing, animation and chart, the music's score, and the review of its own frames.
The narrator's voice, in KitCut's voices.
Your own cloned or designed voice, once you connect it.
The scenes of painted videos.
The cut-outs of collage videos, and people drawn from their photos.
Times every spoken word, so the picture can change on it.
The image and timing models come through OpenRouter, so when a better one ships, KitCut can switch to it with nothing changing for you. If you have a preference, say so: pick the narrator's voice or bring your own, and choose how a series is painted on its Style tab.
