Sekondo Brings ChatGPT and Claude Into After Effects and Premiere Pro

Sekondo, announced September 28, 2026 by designer Jose Manuel Fernández, connects ChatGPT and Claude to six Adobe desktop applications: After Effects, Premiere Pro, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and Lightroom Classic. The plugin aims to let users issue natural-language commands that operate on editable project elements rather than only generating flattened outputs. In After Effects, artists can use AI assistance for layer, composition and animation tasks. Premiere Pro demonstrations highlight editing and graphics operations. These are developer demonstrations and do not independently establish reliability for every professional workflow. Sekondo is listed for macOS and Windows, with integration for desktop AI assistants. Users handling confidential projects should review data handling by their selected AI provider. The approach illustrates a growing shift toward AI assistance inside established creative tools.
