EditLab Alter

For the Mac. Updated for version 1.1.

Fix the one thing that ruined your AI clip. Keep the rest.

An AI clip can be exactly what you wanted, and then one thing gives it away: her face turns into someone else's halfway through, a stranger walks in, or the sign says nonsense. Generating it again costs credits and usually loses the take you liked. Alter fixes that one thing on your Mac and leaves the rest of the shot as it was.

Get it on the Mac App Store

Free to download. Opening clips, finding what's wrong and fixing it are free, and so are your first 10 exports.

The App Store preview, 17 seconds: real AI clips, fixed in Alter's own window.

What it fixes

These are the films on Alter's start screen. Each one is a real AI clip: the flaw first, then the fix.

And when a few seconds glitch or an ending falls apart, cut them out and keep the sound.

How a fix works

  1. Open your clip. From Veo, Sora, Kling or any other generator. Alter looks it over as it opens and tells you what it finds.
  2. Point at what's wrong. Click it, draw round it, or say it in your own words: "his face changes from 8 to 12 s", "remove the ball at 3 s".
  3. See the fix before it lands. Every fix says what it will do, over which frames and how long, before you press Go. Then compare Before and After, and undo anything.
  4. Review, then export. Play each fix once more, then export. Your original clip is never changed.
Her face drifted. Alter keeps it hers. Alter's window flags the café woman's face changing at 3 seconds, beside close-ups of the drifted face and the kept one.
A stranger walked in? Click him. Gone. Before: the man walking through the garden, outlined after one click. After: the garden with him gone.
Add an explosion. It rides the car. Before: a red toy car clicked. After: an explosion and sparks on the car as it moves.
Put your own picture on any screen. Before: a phone in a car mount. After: the phone showing a new picture.
Check every fix. Then export. The review lists five fixes, each with a Play button, before Export.

Save a project to keep the clip, your notes and every fix in one file, and pick up where you left off, on this Mac or another one.

Works with Claude

Link Alter to the Claude app and talk the clip over: Claude looks at it, finds what's wrong and fixes it with you, and every fix shows up in Alter's window. Edit ▸ Undo takes any of it back, and your original file is never changed.
