After Effects panel

Generate images, videos and captions from Kritiverse inside After Effects, and put them on your timeline.

This page shows how to use Kritiverse from a panel inside After Effects, so you stay in your edit.

What it does

The panel makes images and videos with your Kritiverse account, then brings them into your project. It uses your own credits and plan, at the same prices as the website. Everything is made on our servers, so your computer stays free to edit.

This panel is coming soon. This page tells you how it will work.

A key for the panel needs a Pro plan.

What you need

  • After Effects 23 or later, on Mac or Windows.
  • A Kritiverse account.

Sign in

  1. In After Effects, open Window, Extensions, Kritiverse.
  2. Press Sign in with browser. Your browser opens.
  3. Check that the code in your browser matches the code in the panel, then press Allow.

You never type your password inside After Effects. To stop the panel later, remove it in Account, API keys on the website.

Make something

  1. Select a layer, or move the time indicator to the frame you want.
  2. In the panel, choose Image or Video and describe the shot.
  3. Tick Frame at the playhead to start from that frame.
  4. Check the cost, then press Generate. With a frame, press See the price first.

You can keep editing while it works. If you close the panel, the job carries on, and it shows in Results when you come back.

Bring it into your edit

Open Results.

  • Add to bin saves the file in a Kritiverse Media folder and adds it to a Kritiverse bin.
  • Place at playhead does the same, then puts it on your timeline.

Place at playhead adds a new layer on top, starting at the current time. Nothing under it changes.

Captions

Select a layer, choose Kriti Caption and a style, then press Place captions in Results. Only the layer's sound is sent, about 25 minutes at most. The captions arrive as a clear video on a new layer over it, in the style you chose, with the word by word highlight.

Other tools

More tools opens the rest of Kritiverse on the website, on the same account. Film Maker and Clip Maker work there, because they need a full page. What you make there shows in Results.

Install

Install the panel from the file we give you, once it is listed.
