Exporting from Adobe apps often means huge files, missing codecs or a detour through other tools. AfterCodecs, made by Autokroma, plugs straight into After Effects, Premiere Pro and Media Encoder and adds the export formats editors actually ask for. You can render ProRes, H.264, H.265 and HAP files in MP4 or MOV wrappers, with settings that balance quality and file size, and without relying on old QuickTime components.

Key Features

• Exports ProRes, H.264, H.265 and HAP codecs from Adobe apps
• Works inside After Effects, Premiere Pro and Media Encoder
• Saves renders as MP4 or MOV files with no QuickTime needed
• Supports MultiRender Markers to batch export sections in Premiere Pro
• Shows render progress in the taskbar icon while After Effects works

How to Download

1. Get the installer from Download from the official site and pick the macOS version.
2. Run the installer and let it add AfterCodecs to your Adobe apps.
3. Open your Adobe app, choose AfterCodecs in the export settings, and render.

System Requirements

The vendor lists macOS 11.0 Big Sur as the minimum for the current version, running on Intel or Apple Silicon Macs, with a supported Adobe Creative Cloud app such as After Effects, Premiere Pro or Media Encoder installed.

FAQs

Why use AfterCodecs instead of the built in exporters?

It fills gaps the built in tools leave, such as ProRes on demand, HAP for live visuals, and smaller H.264 and H.265 files.

Does one licence cover all three Adobe apps?

AfterCodecs is one exporter suite for the Adobe apps it supports. Check the licence terms on the official page for how many machines you can use.

Can I try it before buying?

The vendor offers a trial mode, and the installer writes a short note file with your exports that explains which licence removes the trial limits.
