Where Autessa wins
Why teams pick Video Creator over Tella
Done when you stop recording
Trim and crop are saved as instructions and applied at playback, so saving and publishing are instant.
Private by design
Drafts stay with you and the people you add by email. The public viewer can only ever read published videos.
A key you hold
Your viewer runs on a private, read-only playback key. Rotate it with no interruption, or turn it off from Settings.
Change the recorder itself
Tella’s API and webhooks let developers build around it. Autobot changes the app in plain language: a new field, a publish approval, a new viewer layout, code and all.
MCP that reaches past the video
Tella’s MCP is excellent for editing. The Autessa MCP covers your video library and the rest of your Autessa apps, so an agent can share a walkthrough and log it on the customer’s record.
Trying Video Creator alongside Tella
Open Video Creator, let it link its viewer, and record your next video there.

Can I customize Video Creator?
Completely. Ask Autobot, Autessa’s AI builder, for a new field, an approval step, a report or a change to your viewer and it builds it into your copy of the app. Or open the code and edit it yourself.
Tella has an MCP server. What does the Autessa MCP add?
Tella’s server is a strong way to edit videos from an AI tool. The Autessa MCP covers your video library and the rest of your Autessa apps, so an agent can work across your videos, customers and documents in one conversation.
