Human-driven agentic film production · Early access
Auteur is an agentic Hollywood studio — a full crew of autonomous agents that takes a brief and runs a full production. You direct. It shoots.
The premise
A film is not one prompt. It is a thousand decisions made by people who know their craft.
Auteur runs the departments you define. A writer's room that argues about structure. A director that holds the intent. A cinematographer that plans coverage. An editor that kills the darlings. Add, remove, or rename roles — the crew works in parallel, hands off, and answers to you.
It is the same shape as an agentic coding tool, pointed at cinema instead of code: long-horizon work, self-review, and a real artifact at the end —production-as-code, fully versioned; not clip, not a cut, a full production.
The pipeline
A logline, a script, a mood, a deadline. Auteur interrogates the brief the way a director interrogates a producer — then writes the treatment back to you.
Structure your studio however you want — writer's room, director, cinematographer, production designer, or custom roles entirely. They break down scenes, plan coverage, generate footage, and review each other's takes.
Interactively refine characters, looks, and more — with defined human-in-the-loop gates along the full production journey.
The system
Build an end-to-end film production workflow once, then apply it over and over again. Swap the story, characters, or key elements — the structure, gates, and delivery stay intact. Versioned, diffable, and repeatable across takes, episodes, and teams.
Place approval and feedback gates exactly where they matter: review a treatment, sign off a shot list, submit pre-authored assets — plates, voice, logos, likeness — then let the crew run to the next gate.
Capture your studio's craft in a powerful declarative, versioned spec. Departments, handoffs, review rules, and delivery specs live in source control — fork a proven pipeline, tune it, and ship it as a house style.
Any model, any provider — the latest open generative video models, local models, and proprietary services like Seedance and Kling. Tap the ecosystem of creator-made LoRAs and specialized workflows for hyper-specific effects and results, without touching nodes or GPU infrastructure. Agents route every shot to the engine built for the result. No ceiling on creativity.
A flexible, open API for custom integrations and your own UIs. Create workspaces, trigger runs, stream progress, resolve gates, and pull artifacts straight into the tools your studio already uses.
Run the entire studio from the command line. Spin up a production, watch agents work, resolve gates, and pull dailies — all without leaving your terminal. A first-class CLI and interactive TUI for directors who live in code.
Example studio
These are just examples — define your own Hollywood studio as code. Add, remove, or rename roles, departments and steps to match your production.
Beat sheets, drafts, punch-ups, and coverage notes with continuity held across the whole runtime.
Scene breakdowns, shot lists, lens and lighting intent, and a storyboard before a frame is rendered.
Shots produced to the plan, with character, wardrobe, and location consistency enforced across takes.
Assembly and fine cut, score and sound design, dialogue mix, and a color pass in one pipeline.
Timecoded notes go straight to the responsible agent. Nothing upstream breaks when you change one shot.
