Tesseract for Claude: your Claude plan, in an app that finishes the job.
Two ways to use them together. In the free Tesseract app, sign in with your Claude Pro or Max plan and the agent runs on it, with no charge added on top. In Claude itself, add Tesseract as a connector and ask in your chat for clips, effects and pictures.
Sign in with Claude. Tesseract does the rest.
Tesseract runs Claude Code, Anthropic’s agent, on your computer and puts the tools around it: a plan you approve, the editors, a terminal and a real browser. Ask in plain words and get back finished presentations, websites, documents and video.
- Download Tesseract. Free for Mac, Windows and Linux; it installs and updates itself.
- Pick Claude Code. On the first-run screen or in Settings. Tesseract installs it for you, or uses the copy already on your computer.
- Sign in. Sign in with your Claude account (Pro or Max), or use an Anthropic API key.
Add Tesseract to Claude. Ask in your chat.
Ask for a clip, a camera move, a long video or one of 250+ effects right in the chat you already use. Tesseract has it made and hands you the finished file.
- In Claude, open Settings → Connectors and choose Add custom connector.
- Name it Tesseract and paste the address. Leave Advanced settings empty.
- Press Add, then Connect. Sign in to Tesseract, check that the page names Claude, and press Approve.
- In a chat, turn Tesseract on under the tools button, then ask.
On a Team or Enterprise plan, an owner adds it once in Organization settings → Connectors, and each member presses Connect. What you ask for is charged to your Tesseract plan, as in the app: your free media is used first, then your allowance or your balance.
