Orkas-AI /Orkas-VideoStudio

Editable video plans from a plain-language brief, rendered by your coding agent

About Orkas-VideoStudio

Describe a video in plain words, and your coding agent builds it. OrkasVideoStudio writes an editable plan.json, then renders the result. Compose and edit are free; generation runs on your own provider keys. It's early development, so install from source for now.

Best for: Agent users who want to build videos while keeping the result as an editable local file.

What it does

  • Composes a script into HTML motion graphics and mp4 with no paid keys
  • Edits your footage: trim, join, cut silence, remove filler words, burn subtitles
  • Generates image, video and voiceover with your own provider keys
  • Runs an auto pipeline that weaves compose, edit and generate into one plan
  • Checks the finished cut with ovs plan promise-check before you ship
  • Re-renders only the piece you changed when you edit one line of the plan

Reviewed Oct 1, 2026. Started as the built-in video agent inside the Orkas desktop app, then extracted into this standalone toolkit. We write these descriptions ourselves. The repo's own docs are the final word.
