What Katana AI Brings to Reference Editing

Starting from a clip whose cuts and pacing you like, Katana AI reconstructs the same video with your own subjects, stock, and apparel — all without leaving Claude.

  • Rebuild From a Reference Clip
    Hand Katana AI a clip worth mirroring, either your own upload or a preset from the library, and it reconstructs the whole sequence with media pulled from your account.
  • Five Photo Slots for Your Assets
    Supply as many as five pictures of people, products, or garments, and Katana AI drops each subject into the matching shot of the new cut.
  • Notes That Steer the Result
    Add optional direction so Katana AI knows what to protect, whether that is a hero product angle, a logo, or a detail that must stay untouched.

Katana AI in Three Quick Steps

Follow three short steps to produce a fresh cut from a reference clip, entirely within the Claude chat.

Core Capabilities of Katana AI

From shot order to credit usage, here is everything Katana AI takes care of when it rebuilds an edit inside Claude.

Shot Order and Timing Preserved

The new cut follows the source's shot sequence, how long each beat runs, and the overall shape of the finished edit.

Cuts Locked to the Beat

Transitions land on the same musical hits as the original, so the rebuilt version keeps its rhythm instead of slipping off tempo.

Library Sorted Two Ways

Presets are grouped by Category, covering Personalized edits, Style transfer, and Motion transfer, and by Source, whether Higgsfield or the Community.

Publish Presets to the Community

From the Katana page you can share your own preset: a motion clip of 3 to 30 seconds, as many as 40 images, and an @-tagged prompt tying them together.

Runs Through the Higgsfield MCP

Katana AI operates inside Claude over the Higgsfield MCP link, works on any active paid plan, and never requests an API key.

Upfront Cost Card and MP4 Export

A cost card appears in Claude before anything renders, and the finished file arrives as an MP4 matching the source's length, aspect ratio, and frame rate.

FAQ

Katana AI Questions, Answered

Straight answers about running Katana AI inside Claude through the Higgsfield MCP connector.

1

How does Katana AI recreate an edit?

Inside Claude, it analyzes how the reference is cut and paced, then inserts your people, products, or garments into that identical structure.

2

What do I need to connect Katana in Claude?

Link Higgsfield within Claude, sign in to authorize it, and keep a paid subscription active. No API key is involved.

3

What reference files are accepted?

A video file or a library preset, plus up to five photos. Profile links are not supported.

4

Does Katana AI cost separate credits?

No extra charge: rebuilds draw on the Higgsfield plan you already pay for, with no MCP markup added.

5

Can I refine a generated Katana edit?

Absolutely. Keep replying in the same thread; changes that trigger fresh renders may consume additional credits.

6

Can I share my own Katana preset?

Yes. Publish it from the Katana page using a motion clip of 3 to 30 seconds and up to 40 images.
