# Huko

> Huko is a free AI video editor for macOS and Windows. You submit one idea, script or piece of footage as a job, and Huko runs the whole edit end to end — script, fully animated scenes, AI voiceover, word-synced captions, music and transitions — then renders a publish-ready video. What comes back is an editable project, not a locked MP4: every motion graphic opens with its own element timeline and keyframes, and the characters you design are saved to a library you reuse in every project afterwards.

## What Huko is

- Category: desktop AI video editor and AI motion graphics generator.
- Platforms: macOS 11 Big Sur or later (Apple Silicon and Intel), Windows 10 or later (64-bit).
- Price: free to download and free to use, with paid plans for a larger monthly generation allowance.
- Output: MP4, MOV, WebM and GIF, vertical, square or landscape, up to 4K at 10-60 fps.
- Distinguishing trait: the AI's output stays editable. Generated animations arrive as motion clips with keyframes, not as baked video.

## Editable motion graphics

- Describe an animation and Huko returns a fully editable animated clip in about 30 seconds.
- Every generated clip opens in a motion editor with a per-element timeline, drag, resize, trim and version history.
- Any property can be keyframed, with 30 entrance animations, 13 idle loops and 23 exits available to every element.
- Scenes are composed from text, shapes, animated counters, progress bars, rings and image sliders — each one individually editable.
- Surgical AI editing: ask for one change, such as "make this land harder", and only that element changes.
- A clip can be extended by asking the AI for more scenes, or by appending one from the built-in motion library — offline, in one click.
- Save any clip you want to keep to your own shelf. Saved clips are available in every project afterwards, including projects that do not exist yet, and reopen with no credits spent.

## Character creation and reuse

- Huko includes a character creator. You shape a character rather than prompting for one: head shape, body build, hair from 12 cuts, colours, line weight, and which parts are drawn at all.
- Add your own props and accessories — a hat, a badge, a tool — and pin them to the head or the body so they move with the character.
- Save a character under a name. Up to 60 characters can live in your library.
- The library belongs to the app, not to one project, so a character made today is on the shelf of every project you open from now on.
- Editing a character updates every clip using it at once — the walk, the wave and the jump, including clips already on the timeline.
- One character can be set as the default that every new project starts with.
- A saved character can be applied to a whole project or to a single character inside one clip.

- Automatic music and beat-timed sound effects.
- Green-screen removal and pre-keyed floating props.
- Multi-track timeline with keyframes, snapping and 200-step undo.
- Cinematic effects: film grain, camera shake, colour grades, letterbox.

- One-click export presets for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, YouTube, Facebook, X and LinkedIn.
