What It Does

Color Grade Prompter lets you apply color grades to footage by typing a description, like “golden hour” or “teal and orange,” or by pointing it at a reference image layer. The AI interprets your input and grades the clip accordingly. You can then export that grade as a .cube LUT file and use it anywhere that supports LUTs, including Premiere Pro’s Lumetri Color panel.

Primarily built for After Effects, it also supports Premiere Pro with a subset of features, mainly clip-name-based text prompts.

Key Features

Text prompts. Describe the look you want in plain language. In After Effects, type the description directly into the effect parameters. In Premiere Pro, the clip name is used as the prompt.

Reference image inputs. Drop a reference layer into your composition to copy its color character onto your footage. You can blend up to three inputs simultaneously, whether they’re text or images, and adjust the weight of each for fine control.

LUT export. At any point you can bake the current grade into a .cube LUT file. That LUT works in Premiere Pro’s Lumetri panel, DaVinci Resolve, or any other LUT-compatible application. This also speeds up final rendering since you no longer need the plugin active during export.

GPU acceleration. Runs on NVIDIA CUDA and Apple Silicon with Metal. A CPU fallback exists but will be noticeably slower. Best performance is on Windows with an NVIDIA GPU with 8GB or more of VRAM, or Apple Silicon with macOS Sequoia and 16GB RAM or more. AMD on Windows and older macOS configurations are not officially supported.

Full bit depth support. Works in 8, 16, and 32-bit compositions. Multiple AI models are available to suit different footage types.

Who It’s For

This tool fits editors and colorists who want a starting point for a grade without building it manually from scratch. It’s particularly useful when you have a visual reference, like a film still or a mood board image, and want to approximate that look on your footage quickly. The LUT export makes it practical for handing off grades to editors who don’t have the plugin installed.

Premiere Pro support is more limited than After Effects. If Premiere Pro is your primary application, check the documentation for current feature limitations before purchasing.

A free trial is available, limited to 50 frames per session and one LUT export, which is enough to test whether it works on your system and footage.
