FoxCut

FoxCut is an AI-powered creative production studio designed to take users from an initial creative brief to a directed shot and eventually a finished video sequence. Unlike a simple prompt-to-video generator, FoxCut organizes AI media generation around filmmaking concepts such as camera movement, shot composition, character continuity, visual references, storyboards, sequencing, and editing. Its goal is to give creators more control over how AI-generated media is directed and assembled. The platform supports both AI image and AI video generation. Users can create media from text prompts, reference images, existing footage, or combinations of these inputs. For video generation, FoxCut provides explicit camera-direction controls. Users can direct movements such as orbit, dolly, crane, pan, zoom, handheld, drone, and other cinematic movements instead of relying exclusively on generic text prompts. FoxCut currently advertises 81 camera moves, 29 video effects, and 94 image looks. These presets provide repeatable creative controls for directing shots across different projects. The platform also supports multiple AI generation engines through one interface. Its current catalog includes video models such as FoxCut DoP, MiniMax H3, Seedance, Kling, Sora, Veo, Hailuo, and Wan, alongside image models including FLUX, GPT Image, Seedream, Nano Banana, Grok Imagine, Recraft, and others. This multi-model architecture allows creators to select an engine based on the requirements of a particular shot rather than being locked into one generation model. FoxCut's Character Lock capability is designed to maintain consistent characters across multiple images and video shots. Users can reuse characters, references, styles, and scene direction across a production so that individual generations can form part of the same visual world. The platform supports image-to-video generation, where an existing photograph, generated image, keyframe, product shot, or character reference becomes the visual anchor for a moving sequence. Users can then direct camera movement while attempting to preserve the source identity, composition, styling, and scene geometry. FoxCut also supports text-to-video generation, translating scene descriptions and camera instructions into directed video workflows. Users can specify subjects, actions, environments, lighting, framing, camera movement, aspect ratio, duration, and model selection. Beyond generation, FoxCut includes an AI video editing and post-production workflow. Generated clips or uploaded footage can be arranged on a timeline, reordered, transformed, restyled, extended, upscaled, regenerated, combined with transitions, and finished with audio. This makes the product more of an end-to-end creative environment than a standalone generation API. FoxCut also provides storyboards and multi-shot direction, allowing creators to plan a sequence before generating individual shots. The platform emphasizes preserving successful creative decisions so that users can continue refining a production instead of restarting from scratch. Voice and lip-sync capabilities are also included within the broader creative toolset. The platform additionally exposes speech and voice-related generation capabilities through its AI model catalog. A distinctive part of FoxCut is its inspectable Shot Library. The public library contains recorded generations with prompts, routes, settings, and observed results, allowing creators to examine how specific camera movements and generation configurations behaved. FoxCut is designed for filmmakers, creators, brands, marketers, and production teams. Current use cases include AI short films, product and brand films, social-media campaigns, music and fashion visuals, storyboard animatics, product photography, creator videos, and marketing content. The platform is also designed to operate outside its web interface. FoxCut provides a remote MCP server, CLI, and reusable agent skills so compatible AI agents can access FoxCut's media-generation capabilities. Through MCP, connected AI clients can inspect available models, workflows, presets, voices, assets, characters, and jobs; estimate generation costs; generate images, videos, speech and commercial media; manage reusable identities; and monitor asynchronous jobs. The production MCP endpoint is https://mcp.foxcut.ai/mcp, and authentication uses browser-based OAuth rather than requiring users to expose a traditional API key to the connected AI agent. FoxCut also provides an official CLI distributed as @foxcut/cli. The CLI supports authentication, model and workflow discovery, media uploads, image/video/speech generation, product photoshoots, marketing-video workflows, and asynchronous job management. FoxCut uses a credit-based generation model. The platform displays the expected credit cost before a billed generation is submitted, while model-specific generation rates are displayed in the live catalog. Failed generation jobs are protected according to the platform's published pricing approach. The product is therefore positioned as a unified creative workspace where users can move through the complete workflow: define a creative brief, select or create visual references, direct the shot, generate multiple variations, preserve successful characters and visual decisions, assemble the shots, and finish the final sequence.
