What's new

Release notes for the Plentake panel for Adobe Premiere Pro.

Get the latest version

Free download for macOS and Windows. It includes every change below.

The panel can't update itself. After the download starts, follow the short install steps that appear below the buttons (on a Mac you'll use the free ZXP Installer; on Windows, the included installer), then reopen the Plentake panel in Premiere. Your settings are kept.

Version 3.1

Latest28 October 2026

A-Roll Full is now close to a finished edit. It catches the takes you repeat or restart far more reliably: whole sentences you re-recorded, restarts in the middle of a sentence, lines you re-record after saying "stop, from the top", and off-camera chatter before and after the take. For the best result, use Premium transcription.
Cuts follow the actual sound. The first letter of a word you keep is no longer clipped, and the start of a word you cut no longer lingers. Pauses are trimmed to a consistent length (a short beat before you speak, a little more after), and tiny leftover clips are gone.
Straight to the cut when the AI is sure. If it has no doubts, the cuts are applied right away. If it isn't sure about some, you see just those, tick the ones you want gone, then choose Apply cuts or Review the list. Prefer to always see the full list first? In Advanced settings, switch from Apply cuts immediately to Show the cut list.
Cut filler sounds. Full mode now cuts "uh", "um" and "eee" sounds. Ones that stand alone, with a pause on both sides, are ticked for you; ones inside a sentence show up as suggestions. It needs Premium transcription, since Standard doesn't write those sounds out. You'll find the checkbox in Advanced settings under Full mode, switched on by default.
Add your script. In Full mode you can attach the script you recorded from (.txt, .md, .docx, .doc or .odt). The AI uses it as a loose guide to tell which take is the intended one — it never cuts speech just because it isn't in the script.
Raw videos up to 2 hours. Full analysis now works through long recordings in parts, so a one-hour raw take is no problem.
Word files for style guides. The B-Roll and Thumbnail style guide pickers now accept .docx, .doc and .odt files too.
No filler sounds in subtitles. "Uh", "um" and "eee" are left out of your subtitles and animated captions automatically, even though they are in the transcript.
Pick groups in the cut list. The Gaps, Retakes and Fillers buttons now work like switches: select several groups at once, and click again to undo one. Sure and unsure fillers have their own buttons.
A clearer "not sure" list. Each suggestion says what you say and when, and where the version that stays is. Click a row and the playhead jumps there so you can listen.
No more silently skipped cuts. Overlapping cuts are merged before they are applied, and after cutting the panel checks that the timeline got shorter by the expected amount and warns you if it didn't.
Premium transcription is more accurate. It now uses a newer speech model. In our tests it was noticeably more accurate in Turkish, and it writes out filler sounds like "uh" and "eee", so Full mode can cut them.
Better subtitles from AI polish. Beyond regrouping lines, it now fixes words that were misheard in context, capitalization and punctuation.
The subtitle list follows your playhead. Play from the timeline and the highlighted line scrolls into view.
Motion Graphics: fewer layout re-checks. The automatic layout check now repairs only clear problems (overlapping, clipped or unreadable elements), not minor style notes, and stops after two repair rounds, so you spend fewer credits on repairs.
Warnings and errors are pop-ups now. When something needs your attention — a missing frame, a missing transcript, a failed step — it appears in a pop-up you can't miss, instead of a line at the very bottom of the panel.
Thumbnail concepts offer to transcribe first. Press Suggest 3 concepts with no transcript and the panel asks whether to transcribe the video now (or use a saved transcript), then carries on by itself.
Title & Description: a big Export button. Export sits at the bottom of the result as a large button, with the file format right next to it.
Free transcription no longer wastes your minutes. Standard transcription checks the sequence length before it starts. If the sequence is longer than the free minutes you have left, it stops right away instead of using them up halfway.
You see what each action costs. Every credit charge or refund shows up briefly at the top of the panel, buttons for rewriting a concept, regenerating Motion Graphics or rewriting titles show their price, and A-Roll Full shows an estimate per minute of video.
Cheaper Motion Graphics with GPT-6.1 Sol. The default quality now costs 35 credits (was 50), and every extra 15 seconds beyond the first 20 adds 15 credits (was 25).
Saved transcripts are found automatically. Every tab now checks whether this exact sequence (same name and same length) already has a saved transcript, and offers to use it instead of transcribing again. A-Roll Full, B-Roll, Captions, Highlight, Summarizer, Thumbnail and Title all work this way, so the Select Transcript buttons are gone. If the name or the length differs, it is treated as a different video and transcribed fresh.
No minimum for the AI review. The repeat-take review in Full mode is now simply 3 credits per minute of video, so a short clip costs a few credits instead of a flat 10.
B-Roll plans start from "Build plan". The separate "Generate transcript" step is gone. Press Build plan and it checks for a saved transcript of this exact sequence: if there is one it asks whether to use it, and if not it asks whether to transcribe first.
Highlights are rated with stars. After the clips are found, the AI reads the actual transcript of every selected clip in one go and gives each one 2 to 5 stars for how well it holds attention (opening hook, surprise, clear takeaway, payoff). No more than half of the clips can get 5 stars, so the ratings tell your clips apart. It is an estimate from the words only, not a promise of views. Click a clip to jump to that moment in your timeline (the checkbox still selects it), and a button sorts the list by rating.
New highlight sequences are easy to find. The sequences you create from your highlights are gathered in a "Highlights" bin next to your source sequence, instead of landing in whichever bin happened to be open. (Takes effect after you restart Premiere once.)
Highlight clips reframe on their own. When you create vertical sequences from your highlights with auto-reframe on, the panel now finds the video track and a good frame inside each new sequence by itself. And if reframing can't be done for one of them, the sequence is still created and the message tells you which one to reframe by hand.
Reframe is clearer. The camera track is now a list of the video tracks in your sequence instead of a number box, the card says the same crop is applied to every clip on that track, and if there's no clip under the playhead the message tells you which track it looked at and what to do.

Version 2.0.1

16 October 2026

Animated captions. Karaoke wipes, sliding pills, one-word bounces and more — 13 styles that land on your timeline as a transparent overlay on a new top track. They're drawn on your computer, so nothing is uploaded. Hover a style to see a live preview, pick a font and colours, and open Advanced settings to fine-tune each style: box colour and opacity, outline, shadow, words per caption, text case, entrance motion and speed.
Check your subtitles before they touch the timeline. Create subtitles now opens them in a list first. The line at your playhead is highlighted and the list follows as you play; click a time to jump there. Add them to the timeline when they read right, or go straight to animated captions.
Spell names your way. Add key terms (names, brands, jargon) and the subtitles use your exact spelling. A find-and-replace in the same list fixes a word everywhere at once.
A faster, cheaper Motion Graphics option. Pick the new fast quality (20 credits) when you want a quick draft of a motion graphic before spending more on a polished one.
Animated captions on Windows. They're now saved as a single transparent movie file, in the same kind of format Premiere uses on Mac, instead of an image sequence.
Motion graphics keep the space you reserve. The layout check now reads your style guide and request, so an area you ask to leave empty — for example room for subtitles — is no longer "fixed" by filling it in.

Version 1.6.0

8 October 2026

Very long videos, transcribed in parts. Premium transcription now handles sequences longer than 90 minutes by splitting them into parts and stitching the result together at natural pauses. You see the part count and the credit total before it starts.
Keep going past the free limit. When your free monthly Quick A-Roll runs or minutes are used up, you can now continue with credits (1 credit per minute) instead of waiting — you're asked first, and only when you've hit the limit.
Find your saved transcripts. Select Transcript now tells you where they live: the Plentake › transcripts folder next to your Premiere project file.

Version 1.5.1

4 October 2026

Longer sequences with Premium transcription. The audio sent for Premium transcription is now smaller (about 50 MB per hour), so sequences up to roughly 110 minutes upload without errors. If a file is still too large, you now get a clear message with what to do instead of a bare "Upload failed" error.

Version 1.5.0

3 October 2026

Captions, now its own tab. Subtitle creation moved out of A-Roll Cleaner into its own Captions tab, right between A-Roll and B-Roll — same free subtitle generation and AI polish, easier to find.
A new motion graphics option. GPT-6.1 Sol joins the motion graphics quality picker — near-flagship quality at a lower credit cost.
Style guides use their full length. A loaded style guide for motion graphics is now used in full (up to 8,000 characters) instead of being quietly cut down further.

Version 1.4.11

1 October 2026

Stock B-Roll places more reliably. Placing a freshly downloaded clip on your timeline no longer fails right after it finishes downloading.
A cheaper way to tweak a plan. After a B-Roll plan is built, Plentake now points you to Revise entire plan for a different take — it costs less than rebuilding from scratch.

Version 1.4.10

1 October 2026

Clear answers when the AI says no. If the AI declines a request because of its safety filter, Plentake now says so plainly — in every tool — and refunds the credits.
Know what to change. When a request can't be processed, for example a section that's too long, the message tells you what to change instead of asking you to try again.
Automatic refunds for failed AI images and videos. If an AI image or video stops partway through, the credits come back on their own.

Version 1.4.9

1 October 2026

Transcripts keep going. If Premium transcription is ever temporarily unavailable, Plentake finishes the job with Standard transcription automatically instead of stopping — and those minutes don't come out of your free Standard allowance.
A backup AI behind every tool. If an AI service behind a tool has an outage, the request now moves to a backup automatically and your work carries on. For motion graphics, if the backup costs less than the quality you picked, you're only charged the lower price.

Version 1.4.8

30 September 2026

Your account, one click away. Manage subscription now opens your Plentake account page already signed in — your plan, what's left this month and your invoices in one place. Changing your subscription from there opens the billing page without asking for a login code.
Clear when an update is required. If a Plentake update is ever required, the panel says so and links straight to the download, instead of failing with a vague error.

Version 1.4.7

30 September 2026

Your free Quick runs, in plain sight. On the free plan, Quick silence removal includes 10 runs or 90 minutes of video each month — whichever comes first. What's left shows right under Find cuts, and running the same sequence again on the same day counts only once. Paid plans are unlimited.
Stock B-Roll allowance. The free plan includes 10 stock searches and 20 imports a month in the Stock B-Roll tab. Searching the same words again on the same day, or paging through results, doesn't count twice. B-roll that the B-Roll Editor finds for your plan doesn't count at all.
Everything in one place. Click your account to see what's left this month — credits, Quick A-Roll, Stock B-Roll, Standard transcription and Standard AI — and the date each renews.
Everything else stays the same. Automatic camera switching and Full analysis work exactly as before.

Version 1.4.6

29 September 2026

Never stuck on credits. If a step costs more credits than you have, its button tells you and opens your plan options in one click. And if a job stops for lack of credits, "Get more credits" sits right next to the message.
A heads-up before you run out. A small bar appears at the top of the panel when you're down to your last 50 credits.
From clean cuts to b-roll. When the A-Roll Cleaner finishes your cuts, one click takes you to the B-Roll Editor to add b-roll to the same edit.

Version 1.4.5

29 September 2026

A simpler, clearer panel. Every tab now tells you what you get, the next step is always obvious, and fine-tuning sits under "Advanced settings" with a one-click "Reset to defaults". Each tool's options moved out of Settings and into its own tab.
Costs on the buttons. Buttons show what they cost before you press them — for example "Build plan · 10 credits" or "Find highlights · free".
A-Roll Cleaner: Quick or Full. Quick removes silences for free, right on your computer. Full also removes filler words and repeated takes.
B-Roll in three steps. Transcript, plan, review — then "Generate & place" with the total cost on the button. Plans now suggest AI images more often and AI video only where motion really matters, so the same edit uses fewer credits.
Transcription quality picks itself. Premium on paid plans, Standard (free) otherwise. Change it any time with one click.

Version 1.4.4

26 September 2026

Design thumbnails from your own photo. Besides capturing the frame at the playhead, you can now upload any photo (PNG, JPG or WEBP) — for example a portrait shot separately from the video. It works for one image across all thumbnails and for a different image per thumbnail. Large photos are resized automatically.
Revise looks at the right image. When each thumbnail has its own image, "Revise" now uses that thumbnail's image instead of an earlier one.
A new look in Plentake orange. Buttons, tabs, checkboxes and highlights now use the same orange as plentake.com.

Version 1.4.3

25 September 2026

Finds leftover copies. If an older copy of Plentake is still installed on your computer — for example one installed under a different folder name — the panel tells you where it is, with a "Show in Finder" (or "Show in Explorer") button so you can delete it. Premiere Pro runs only the newest copy, but an old one would quietly come back if you ever removed the current one. The list also stays in Settings › About.
Cleaner installs on Windows. The installer now removes every older copy of Plentake from your user folder before it installs, whatever the folder is called, and the uninstaller removes them all. Copies installed for all users are pointed out, because deleting those needs admin rights.
Install guide with video. A 30-second video and a one-page PDF walk you through installing. On Windows both are inside the download; on the website they appear right under the download buttons.

Version 1.4.2

25 September 2026

Motion graphics can draw. For illustrative topics (a process, a diagram, a scene) the AI can now draw with code instead of stacking text boxes — smoother, more visual results.
Pick your motion graphics AI. Settings › B-Roll now offers Claude Fable 5, GPT-6 Astra, Claude Opus 5.5 and Gemini Flash (default), each with its credit cost shown.
Buy extra credits in one click. On a Starter or Power plan, click your credit balance in the sidebar — "Buy extra credits" is right there. When you drop below 100 credits the balance turns red so you can top up before a job stops.
Safer previews. The motion graphics preview now runs in a locked-down frame, so nothing in a generated animation can reach the rest of the panel.
Fewer failed renders. Motion graphics that asked for a font our renderer can't load used to fail. Those fonts are now swapped automatically and the render retries.

Version 1.4.1

23 September 2026

If you are reading this because the panel told you, that part is new. Update notices were supposed to appear from late August, but a missing server setting stopped the panel from ever reading the version file — so nobody was told about the last five releases. That is fixed.

B-Roll plans no longer fail on long videos. Some plans stopped after about two minutes with a service error and refunded your credits. The request is now streamed, so a long plan keeps going until it finishes.
You now hear about new versions. The panel checks once a day and shows a banner when an update is out.
The panel tells us which version it is. Just the version number, sent when the panel loads your account. It lets us see who is stuck on an older build and reach out, instead of guessing.

Version 1.4.0

22 September 2026

You can stop a long job now. Until this version, once a generation started there was no way out except closing the panel — while credits kept being spent.

A Stop button on every long job. Summarizer, Highlight Selector, B-Roll generation and Thumbnail Designer all show it while they work. The step that is already running finishes — it is already paid for — and nothing after it starts, so you are never charged for work you cancelled.
Long transcripts no longer come back half-analysed. On a long sequence the AI's answer could be cut off mid-way. You would still get a plan, with a warning that part of the transcript may have been skipped, and no way to fix it. Now the panel notices the cut-off, splits that section in two and asks again automatically. Three separate causes were fixed, including one where our server reported a truncated answer as complete.
B-Roll images with GPT Image were broken and are fixed. Picking GPT Image 2.5 for B-Roll images failed outright — the panel was calling an address that does not exist. It also showed 25 credits per image in the confirmation box when the real price was 10. Both fixed.
Thumbnail image models: three choices instead of one. GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst (more detail), GPT Image 2.5 Flare (faster) and GPT Image 2 are now selectable separately. Before, the picker said "GPT Image 2.5" without telling you which variant ran.
Gap removal now really defaults to the fast method. "Default" was printed next to the wrong option.
Clearer messages when something blocks you. Errors used to show raw codes like credit_spend_failed. Every message now says what happened and what to do about it — and if you have run out of a free monthly allowance, it tells you when it resets.
Your monthly free credits now actually arrive. We promised 100 extra credits each month you use Plentake. The mechanism was missing. It exists now, and the panel tells you when they land.

Installing on macOS has changed. The Mac download is now the extension file itself (.zxp), installed with the free ZXP Installer. It is one extra step the first time, and in exchange every fix reaches you the day it is ready instead of waiting on Apple's notarisation queue.

Version 1.3.1

11 September 2026

Motion Graphics no longer asks you to install anything. That was the one place in Plentake that needed extra software on your computer, and it's gone.

Motion Graphics works on every machine now — no Node.js, nothing to install. Before this version you had to install Node.js from nodejs.org before a single graphic would render, and the first render quietly downloaded a browser engine in the background. Both the render and the layout check now run on our servers, so Motion Graphics behaves identically on every computer with nothing to install.
The layout check now watches the finished graphic. It used to screenshot a preview before rendering. Now an AI watches the actual rendered clip — the exact frames you get — and if something overlaps or runs off the edge it rewrites the layout and re-renders. Same 2 credits per pass, up to 3 passes, and you can switch it off in Settings.
A dropped connection no longer breaks a render. A brief network hiccup could silently push Motion Graphics onto your own machine, where it failed with a cryptic spawn npx ENOENT. It now stays on our servers and tells you plainly if something is temporarily unavailable.
Vertical sequences get vertical graphics. Motion graphics in a 9:16 sequence were being rendered as 16:9 and squashed.
The Motion Graphics quality picker names the actual model — Claude Fable 5, GPT-6 Astra or Gemini Flash — with what each one really costs, instead of Max/High/Medium.
Subtitles no longer drift out of sync. On longer sequences, standard-quality subtitles slid earlier and earlier the further into the timeline you got — about half a second lost per chunk. Transcripts made before the fix are no longer reused, so you get a correct one next time.
Pick your transcription quality in Title & Description and Thumbnail Designer too, not just in Summarizer.
Sharper AI images. Thumbnails and b-roll stills now use a newer image model at full HD, for the same credits as before.
Don't want AI video? There's a switch in Settings > B-Roll to stop the planner from suggesting generated video, so a plan only uses stock footage and images.
Your account on the website. Sign in at plentake.com to see your plan, credit balance and subscription, and to reset your password.

Server improvements

8 September 2026

Your credits now unlock every paid feature. Some tools still asked for a paid plan even when you had credits — including premium transcription, AI caption polish, premium titles, and saving your B-roll plan. Credits are the only thing that matters now, so the 200 you get on sign-up work everywhere.
AI video generation is working again and it no longer stops when the day has been busy.
AI images keep working even if the daily limit on our image provider is reached — requests switch to a backup automatically, at no extra credit cost.

Version 1.2.0

7 September 2026

AI video works again — and costs less. Video generation had been failing outright. It's fixed, and it now runs on a provider without a daily ceiling, so it won't stop working just because the day has been busy. The default quality dropped from 8 to 5 credits per second.
B-roll clips no longer go missing. A generated clip could be created, charged for, and then never land on the timeline — while the panel reported success. The panel now verifies the clip is really placed and tells you plainly if it isn't.
Subtitles in one step. Press the subtitle button and it just works: if the sequence hasn't been transcribed it offers to do it, then adds the subtitles for you. Previously it ran a full cut analysis you never asked for.
Cleaner motion graphics. If a logo in a scene can't be fetched, the scene now uses no logos at all instead of leaving broken boxes next to real ones.
Sharper AI caption polish. Names and brands are now checked against the web, so they come out spelled correctly.
Windows setup. Plentake now installs on Windows as well as macOS.
