Dispatch redefines the role of mobile in AI workflows. It is not for doing the work, but for orchestrating multiple, independent AI task sessions running on a powerful desktop. The phone becomes a remote 'command chair,' directing heavy-lifting tasks from anywhere.

Move beyond simple AI editors by using a plugin like Remotion that connects to a large language model such as Claude. This allows you to provide editing instructions in plain English, describing the desired B-roll, captions, and cuts, letting the AI execute your creative vision.

Ben Tossel, a non-technical person, codes from his phone by using a GitHub app to manage pull requests and a Telegram bot to trigger his AI agent to make fixes or add features. This creates a powerful mobile coding workflow, treating the AI like a remote human programmer.

Marco Casalaina used natural language to instruct an AI agent to re-encode a 1.7GB video file using the powerful but complex command-line tool FFmpeg. The AI handled the specific command generation, reducing the file to 13MB. This makes highly technical tools accessible for tasks like file manipulation without requiring deep expertise.

When asked to edit a video from disparate sources, Claude CoWork found no existing tool, so it wrote and executed its own custom script to extract the clips. This highlights AI's ability to create bespoke, single-use software on the fly, automating niche tasks that previously required manual work or specialized tools.

Delegate the robotic task of removing filler words and bad takes to an AI tool. This creates the initial rough cut, saving your professional editor's time and budget for higher-value tasks like motion graphics, creative pacing, and strategic storytelling.

Video editing can be automated without technical skill by using an AI as an orchestrator. By giving Claude access to a plugin like Remotion, you can use natural language prompts to direct it to access raw video files and perform complex edits, turning a creative brief into a near-finished video automatically.

To begin automating work with AI, record yourself performing a task on video (e.g., using Loom) while narrating the process. An AI can then analyze the transcript to identify the repeatable steps and logic, which forms the basis for building a custom, automated "skill" that mirrors your workflow.

Marketers without video editing skills can now produce high-quality videos. By instructing an AI agent to use an open-source library like Remotion, you can generate and edit complex, animated videos entirely through text commands.
