Overview

The CaraOne AI search tool integrates with Adobe Premiere via an extension, enabling communication between their REST APIs. This allows you to search for clips in CaraOne using low-res proxies, adjust AI-generated in/out points if needed, and send them to Premiere. CaraOne links Premiere to the high-res media without creating sub-clips, using pointers instead. While metadata or markers can't be exchanged yet, you can search your open Premiere project directly from CaraOne by clicking the "Project" button. 


Applicability

Adobe Premiere 2023 and newer.  If you have an older version in mind please contact us, it probably works but we have focused any testing on 2023 and newer.


Usage Example

After installing Premiere, the CaraOne Client app, and the "Pymiere Link" extension, the integration is complete. "Pymiere Link" is available through our support downloads after purchasing CaraOne (not yet on the Extension Exchange). To confirm it's active, check Premiere → Window → Extensions. The screenshot below shows "Pymiere Link" as the loaded extension. 


With a Premiere project open, use ALT-TAB or a third monitor to run CaraOne alongside Premiere. CaraOne operates as a standalone app for performance and future 3D features using Unity, so it can't be a Premiere panel yet. In this example, a "test" search shows the AI generating in/out points to save editing time.  

Use J, K, L, or the space bar to play back the AI-selected clip. Adjust the in/out points if needed, then click the "Arrow" action button to send the clip to Premiere. The arrow icon is located at the bottom of the CaraOne playback window, as shown below. 


After clicking the send to Premiere action button the clip is sent to Premiere.  Here you can see CaraOne create two folders and import two clips.  The high-res clip is also imported and ready instantly in Premiere.  

In the Premiere Project window, CaraOne creates two folders: CaraOneClips and CaraOneMedia.

  • CaraOneClips: Contains folders named after your CaraOne search terms. More searches create more folders. Future updates will allow grouping clips into a favorites list for bulk export.
  • CaraOneMedia: Stores entire master clips for full access in Premiere.

The screenshot shows how CaraOneClips references AI-selected (or adjusted) in/out points, while CaraOneMedia contains the full 11-minute clip.


You can reverse the search by letting CaraOne search into your open Premiere project.  Find the "Project" button in CaraOne and now you have results coming to you based on your open Premiere project.
