Palmier Pro is an open source video editor for Mac. You and your agent can generate and edit videos together inside the timeline.
Swift-native video editor
We built Palmier Pro from scratch with Swift. The north star is Premiere Pro, with our take on integrating AI into the workflow.
Built-in Generative AI
Generate videos and images with SOTA models like Seedance, Kling, Nano Banana Pro inside the timeline editor.
Integrates with your agents
Connects your Claude/Codex/Cursor via MCP, or use the in-app agent to work on the same project together.
MCP server
When the app is open, it exposes an MCP server at http://127.0.0.1:19789/mcp via HTTP. To connect:
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http palmier-pro http://127.0.0.1:19789/mcp
Codex
codex mcp add palmier-pro --url http://127.0.0.1:19789/mcp
Cursor
The easiest way is go inside the app Help -> MCP Instructions -> Install in Cursor, or install manually by adding this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"palmier-pro": {
"type": "http",
"url": "http://127.0.0.1:19789/mcp"
}
}
}
Claude Desktop
We bundle a mcpb with the app that allows a one click install Desktop Extension on Claude Desktop. Go to Help -> MCP Instructions -> Install in Claude Desktop
FAQ
Is Palmier Pro fully open source?
The video editor (without the generative AI features) is fully open source. The MCP server and the agent chat are also open source. The only thing that is closed source is the generative AI processing.
Is it free?
The editor is free. You can download it with no login required, and use it as a video editor like CapCut or Adobe Premiere. You can also use the MCP server for free, and start experimenting using Claude Code/Desktop or Cursor to interact with your timeline editor.
Generative AI features require login and subscription.
What platforms does it support?
macOS 26 (Tahoe) on Apple Silicon only.
