Tellers

What is Tellers?

Tellers is an AI video editing agent for creators and studios. You describe the video you want, or bring footage, and the agent builds a timeline, edits it and renders the final cut. One subscription also gives access to generative tools for video, images, voice-overs, music and sound effects, with models from providers such as Google Veo, OpenAI Sora, Runway, ElevenLabs and Seedance, plus stock media from Pexels. Its tool set includes scene analysis, transcription, dubbing, voiceover cleanup, cut detection and reframing. For developers, the Tellers API manages sources and assets, triggers exports and can generate a video from a prompt, authenticated with API keys or OAuth, and a CLI covers scripts and CI. A hosted MCP server lets Claude, Codex and other MCP clients create, edit, preview and export projects while a live timeline stays visible. Access is through subscriptions or pay-as-you-go tokens, and API use consumes credits, but the pricing page lists no amounts, so check the vendor's site.
