Free creative engine gives AI agents native tools for video editing, motion graphics, compositing, and sound, all in one editable project
NEW YORK, NY, September 22, 2026 (EZ Newswire) — Mirage today announced Tesseract, a video creative suite built for AI agents. Powered by the native video engine behind Captions, Tesseract lets users direct a video production through the agent they already use.
“Think of Tesseract as Premiere and After Effects, rebuilt for agents,” said Gaurav Misra, co-founder and CEO of Mirage. “We’re giving creators the power to make professional video simply by describing what they want, right where they already work, without paying for another editing subscription or learning a complicated new tool.”
To make this possible, Tesseract gives agents direct access to a creative engine built around video layers, compositions, keyframes, masks, adjustment layers, timing, and sound. Agents work directly with these video concepts rather than clicking through an editor’s interface or constructing video through HTML or React. This native approach helps agents create fluid, layered motion design that feels crafted for video, rather than adapted from a web page.
Using Tesseract, agents can turn user-supplied footage, images, brand assets, and audio into finished videos and create original motion graphics. Projects can range from product-launch films and social ads to animated typography, diagrams, and footage with graphic overlays.
The process starts with users providing their creative direction and any assets. Their agent then builds a project and refines the work through feedback, all without moving between separate editing, motion, and audio applications. Because the project remains editable throughout, users can ask their agent to rework an entire sequence or direct a specific change, such as adjusting a keyframe, changing a title’s timing, or rebalancing the music. Agents can save the project, export the finished video, and reopen it for future revisions.
This entire workflow runs on Tesseract’s free local engine, including previewing, rendering, and export. No Captions account, API key, or Captions credits are required. Users remain responsible for their chosen agent’s subscription or model-usage costs.
To get started, users or their agents can follow the installation instructions on GitHub to install the Tesseract skills for video editing and motion graphics and set up the local engine. Tesseract requires a compatible agent environment that can access local files and execute local tools.
