SUNRISEThe difference
Most AI editors sell you tokens, then meter what you make with them. Chalchitraz sends you to the provider instead.
To be exact: this is about the AI features. Chalchitraz is paid software — ₹1,000 a year, further down this page — and the AI services you connect charge their own price for whatever you generate. What we never do is stand between you and your provider with a credit meter.
BYOK
Connect the AI services you already use. Chalchitraz only offers you the ones that can actually do the job you asked for.
ChalchitrazYour creation
Your keys stay on your PC, and a "Test my keys" button checks each one for free before you spend anything.
The editor
Not an AI toy with a timeline bolted on. Pick a feature and watch the window follow.
SUNRISETimeline
Video, audio, images and titles on as many tracks as the edit needs — with the ruler, the playhead and the drop modes an editor actually works with.
Trim, split, slip, ripple-delete and drag clips between tracks. Drop modes decide what happens when a clip lands on another: overwrite, insert, crossfade, replace or snap to a marker.
Just say it
Tell Chalchitraz what you want in your own words. It does it on your timeline — and you can undo it like any other edit.
put all my videos on the timeline
Those are the program's own examples. It reads the instruction, carries it out on the timeline, and every change it makes can be undone.
Picture
The image side of the editor: colour correction and grading, chroma key, transform and speed, all on the clip you selected.
SUNRISESound
Audio is a first-class track, not an afterthought: levels, effects and denoise, plus speech turned into subtitles you can edit as text.
SUNRISEText and motion
Titles, stickers, transitions and templates — dropped onto the clip and dragged where you want them.
SUNRISEMade in India
The whole interface in Hindi or English — not a half-translated menu. Switch it here and watch the window change.
SUNRISEThe Hindi labels here are the ones in the program's own translation file. Speech to text handles Hindi and English too.
Create with AI
Make a video, a picture or a voice-over without leaving the timeline. You choose the service, the model, the length and the shape; the result lands in your library, ready to drop into the edit.
Why Chalchitraz
Multi-track editing for video, audio, images and titles, with the trimming and ripple tools an editor expects.
Scripts written and filmed with your own AI account, with your actors' faces kept from shot to shot. Already have a script? Import it, and it is split into shots without any AI account.
Even several steps at once, in your own words, and the editor carries them out. Anything that costs money or closes your project is checked with you first.
Made on your PC from the best frames of your film, in 11 ready-made sizes or any size you choose. Titles, hashtags and chapters can be written with your own AI account.
Work on your film from the last shot towards the first, while the film itself stays as it was. The Visual Editing Map lets you drag shots into a new story order.
Connect the AI services you already pay for. The provider bills you directly for what you generate.
The whole interface, in either language, switched whenever you like.
Grading, chroma key, transitions, stickers and templates, all built in.
Video enhancer, denoise and speech to text on your PC; generation through your own AI account.

What's new in 1.2.0

Thumbnails made on your PC, splitting a finished script into shots, Reverse Edit and the Visual Editing Map need no AI account.
Questions
It means Chalchitraz never sells you AI credits. The AI generation features run on your own account with the provider you choose — OpenAI, Google Gemini, Google Veo, Kling, Runway, PixVerse, Seedance, Stability AI, ElevenLabs and others — and that provider charges you directly, at their price, with no limit invented by us. Chalchitraz itself is still paid software: the licence on this page is what you pay us.
No. The editor, the timeline, grading, chroma key, titles, transitions, speech to text, the video enhancer, video denoise, thumbnails made on your PC, splitting a finished script into shots, Reverse Edit and the Visual Editing Map all work without any AI account. You only need a key for the features that write or generate: new video, pictures, voice-overs, scripts, and titles or descriptions for publishing. Your AI provider charges you for those.
No, and we would rather say so here than surprise you. Your editing happens on your PC, but the program needs the internet to activate and for a silent check-in when it starts, at least once a month. Generating with AI also goes out to the provider you connected.
Everything. Download the installer, create your account with your email, log in and press "Start my free month" — no code and no payment for 30 days on your first PC. If you buy during the free month, your paid year starts when the free month ends.
One activation code runs on one PC for a year from the day you activate it. If you change PCs, log in on the new one and release the old one from inside the program — you do not need to contact us. The code is tied to the email address you paid with, so use that same address in the program.
Yes — the whole interface, not a few menus, and you can switch between Hindi and English whenever you like. Speech to text handles Hindi and English too.
