Hey Product Hunt,
I'm Saksham, Co-Founder & CEO of Cardboard (Backed by Y Combinator).
A few months ago, we launched Cardboard to make video editing as simple as describing what you want.
Today, we're excited to bring Cardboard to your desktop :)
Introducing Cardboard for Mac!
We've always believed that making a video shouldn't mean spending hours learning editing software or manually cutting clips on a timeline.
You should be able to upload your footage, describe the video you have in mind, and get a great edit in minutes.
And that's exactly what you can do with cardboard.ai
With the new desktop app, you can now:
- Edit videos for free: Get started with a free Lite plan, no credit card needed.
- Bring your own AI agents: Connect your existing Claude or ChatGPT subscription to edit videos.
- Keep your footage local: Your clips stay on your Mac instead of being uploaded to the cloud.
- Edit faster: Less uploading and waiting, with footage processed locally.
- Do more with video: Generate visuals, create motion graphics, and recreate edits from references.
Cardboard is for you if you're a creator, marketer, engineer, founder, designer, product manager, educator, a small business owner, or work in a team who need video without learning the complex timeline.
Would love for you to try the Mac app and tell us what you think!
We'll be here in the comments all day. Ask us anything :)
keeping the footage on the mac removes a pretty annoying upload step
using an existing ai subscription is a useful option too
yess, one of the reasons we launched the Mac app :D
It’s been more than 2 months I’ve been using Cardboard AI for my drone content and believe me it’s a real time saver, it used to take me 1-2 days to edit but cardboard gives me whatever I want within 10 mins !! believe me drone shots are hard to edit especially in 4K but cardboard has made it real easy for color grading and titles etc
Thanks for this amazing app !!
have been using for a month or so now, habitual to prompting it out and letting cardboard do the magic :)
@jhalakkk yay, tysm! always liked your candid feedback
This has become my go-to-tool for all video editing requirements, have been using it for past 2 months and it never disappoints me.
@nrg10x thanks, glad that we are an important part of your workflow now
Social media teams could benefit a lot from this. Repurposing
footage into multiple formats is still unnecessarily time consuming
@aadesh_rawat yeah, you can try clipping with Cardboard and share your feedback :)
Now like a super vivid user of cardboard and have also recommended to my fellow creators.
