Grapple is an agentic video creation environment.
Grapple is a shared workspace for people and AI agents creating videos together. The user can edit the project, and the agents can see those edits. Agents can also edit the project, and the user can see what changed. Assets, plans, scripts, notes, and the video timeline become shared context so the next instruction can build from the current version instead of starting over.
Grapple brings agentic workflows to video creation by letting creators and AI agents work from the same evolving project, not just the latest prompt.
What Grapple does
- Works with existing footage, b-roll, music, references, and other uploaded media.
- Lets creators manage assets in an integrated asset management UI.
- Makes uploaded assets available to both the creator and the agents.
- Uses Plan Mode to create a high-level story arc, structure, pacing, and visual direction before editing begins.
- Includes a Writers Room where the creator can write a script or ask a writing agent to draft one.
- Supports iterative editing: creators can keep talking to agents and refining the same project instead of gambling on one-shot prompts.
- Handles connected video changes where script edits can affect voiceover, timing, clips, music, and other parts of the timeline.
Why it matters
Grapple is built for video creation workflows where speed and control both matter. It gives creators AI assistance without hiding the work inside a black-box generation. The agents understand the project, not just the latest prompt.
