What's new in Sollestro
Last updated: June 2026
The road from the first AI video editor to today's video and photo release. Newest first.
3.0
Photo selection & commercial launch
Current
The big one. Sollestro now selects photos as well as editing video - and it's a proper, installable product with a free trial.
- NewPhoto Mode. Point Sollestro at thousands of photos and Claude AI keeps the best, sets aside the misses, and picks the winner of every burst - all from a plain-English brief.
- NewTwo photo workflows. Work inside DaVinci Resolve (green / yellow / red flags + a Keepers bin), or write XMP colour labels + star ratings straight to a folder for Lightroom, Capture One and Bridge - no Resolve needed.
- NewRAW support for photos - Canon, Sony, Nikon, Fuji and more.
- NewPrompt Builder. Describe what you want in everyday language and Sollestro writes the prompt that drives the edit or selection.
- NewLearn my selection style. Point it at photos you've already picked and it learns your taste.
- NewPer-genre knowledge (wedding, portrait, landscape, event and more) plus a cheaper Batch mode for large photo jobs.
- ImprovedAnalyse once, reuse everywhere - the analysis is cached and shared across video and photo, edits and selections, so you never pay to analyse the same media twice.
- ImprovedFaster, more reliable analysis - parallel processing, a persistent thumbnail cache, and resume-after-stop.
- NewWindows installer, licensing & a 14-day free trial. Sollestro is now a finished product you can buy and own. macOS is coming next.
2.0
Edited-video remix & workflow polish
Faster, calmer, and able to remix finished videos - not just raw footage.
- NewEdited-Video Shot Mode. Drop in a finished, rendered video and Sollestro breaks it into its shots, ready to remix into shorts and reels.
- NewDestination bin. Put new timelines into any media-pool bin, not just the Master.
- ImprovedThe Stop button now interrupts AI Edit, cutaways and re-edits promptly - and keeps whatever's already done.
- FixedStability and persistence - your prompt, settings and splitter positions stay put between runs.
1.0
The AI video editor
The first Sollestro - an AI editing assistant living inside DaVinci Resolve Studio.
- NewAI footage analysis. Claude scores every clip for content, quality and editorial value.
- NewOne-click AI Edit. A complete first-cut timeline assembled from your plain-English brief.
- NewInterview & speech editing. Finds the best soundbites and snaps cuts to clean sentence boundaries.
- NewB-roll cutaways. Lays cutaways over interview clips on a second track.
- NewBeat sync. Lands every cut on the beat of your music track.
- NewRe-edit. Regenerate just the shots you want to change, not the whole timeline.
- NewPro camera support - BRAW, RED, ARRI and more, via proxies.
- NewLive Claude model picker, in-app cost tracking, and analysis caching.
