We landed in Hawaii without much of a plan. I think that was kind of the point. I wanted to go somewhere I'd never been and just see what stuck.

Testimonials

See what our customers say.

Daydream takes hours of footage and breaks it down in minutes, handling the heavy lifting at the start of my workflow so I can focus on the actual storytelling and editing. It easily saves me a couple hours per project. The UI is also amazing!

Daydream has made me fall in love with video editing again! It feels so intuitive and familiar, while using AI to remove the boring, tedious parts of the process. I can't imagine editing a project without it going forward.

Daydream was a lifesaver. I don't know anything about video editing, transitions, or text animation and with a few prompts, it produced an app store preview video that looks like I hired a pro to make it for me.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Q.01

What is Daydream?

Daydream is a desktop video editor that lets you edit videos using your existing AI agents like Claude and Codex in a single, collaborative editing interface. It lets you easily remove silences and bad takes, generate motion graphics, create custom captions and more using just chat. Read the getting started guide.

Q.02

Can Claude or Codex edit videos?

Yes. Daydream connects to your existing Claude Code or Codex account through its built-in chat, so your agent can cut bad takes, add b-roll, style captions, and build motion graphics directly on your timeline. Check out our guide on how to connect Daydream to your Claude Code or Codex.

Q.03

Is there an MCP server for video editing?

Yes. Daydream runs a local MCP server, so any MCP client (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or your own agent) can control the editor: importing footage, placing clips, editing transcripts, generating graphics, and exporting. See more on how to connect an agent via MCP.

Q.04

Is Daydream free?

Yes. Daydream has a free plan that includes full editing capabilities, unlimited watermark-free exports, and monthly AI allowances: 1 hour of transcription, 1 hour of video processing for AI search, and 100 MCP tool calls. Pro raises those limits for $19 per month ($16/mo billed yearly).

Q.05

Is my footage uploaded to the cloud?

No. Daydream is local-first: your footage stays on your device and is never uploaded or stored in the cloud.

Q.06

Can I still use Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Premiere Pro?

Yes. Daydream exports your timeline as an XML file that imports into Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and Premiere Pro, or you can render a watermark-free MP4 directly. How exporting works.

Q.07

Is Daydream for short-form or long-form content?

Both. Daydream supports 16:9 and 9:16 aspect ratios, so you can edit YouTube videos and podcasts alongside TikToks, Reels, and Shorts, with transcription in over 30 languages.

Less time editing, more time creating.
