Software from Immersi · In preview
360 video tools for the Mac, made for our own shoots first. Take the tripod out of any finished 360 video, or stitch the Insta360 Pro 2 from scratch and see the few places worth a look.
First in the preview
Take the tripod, and anything else in the way, out of a finished 360 or 180 video, from any camera or stitcher.
For anyone with a 360 video: Insta360 X series, Qoocam, Kandao or GoPro Max owners, or an editor handed a finished file.
In the preview
Stitch the Insta360 Pro 2’s six lenses from scratch, with seams that move round people, and check every place it could go wrong. Includes Patch.
For studios with a multi-lens rig (the Pro 2 for now) who stitch for clients.
Coming later
Send a client a link: they look round, leave notes and sign off, and their notes come back into Unseam.
For studios and freelancers who deliver 360 to clients. On top of Patch or Stitch.

Each feature below says where it stands, and the app shows the same labels next to its options. Most of Patch is experimental for now.
Unseam Patch · First in the preview
Open a finished 360 video from any camera or stitcher, and Unseam finds the tripod on the floor and fills it in. 180 and 180 stereo work too. Your video is never touched: the patched copy goes in a folder next to it, with the original’s sound, timecode and 360 tags.
Most of Patch is experimental: tested on test videos, not yet on real jobs. The fast patch, clean up and the review page are further along.
Beta
One fill for the whole shot, made from the floor round the tripod: AI fill, matching floor copied in, your logo, or plain black. Its brightness follows the room’s light, and someone stepping over it still shows.
Experimental
The fill keeps its detail, but its light follows the floor’s, place by place, every second. A shadow or a patch of light moving across the floor carries on across the patch. Slower than the fast patch.
Experimental
Eyes side by side or top and bottom, from lenses side by side (a Canon VR lens) or round a circle (a Pro 2 in 3D). One fill, placed in the other eye where that eye’s floor is, so it doesn’t shimmer in a headset. A 180 that fades to black at its edges gets a patch that fades with it. Not yet: a dual fisheye file straight off the camera.
Experimental
Walking, a monopod or a car: the rig is filled from floor seen a moment before or after, with AI fill for floor never seen. For a drone above the camera, the patch goes at the top. 360 only for now, tested on made-up shots.
Experimental
Put a 360 sky picture over the drone instead of a fill. Its colour is matched to the clear sky round it, and it turns as the drone turns. With scattered clouds the edge can show, so compare it with AI fill.
Beta
Click round a bag, a light stand or someone standing still, and it is painted out, from the floor when the thing moved away at some point, or with AI fill. Someone walking in front of it still shows. Not on 180 or stereo yet.
Beta
A page to send with the video: your client looks round the shot, adds notes that keep the moment and where they were looking, approves it, and sends it all back to you. Zip it and send it, or put it on any web host.
Unseam Stitch · In the preview
For the Insta360 Pro 2’s six lenses, more rigs later. It works out the stitch, shows you the few places worth a look, and hands over files ready for Resolve, Premiere Pro and headsets. Patch comes with it.
I’ve been stitching 360 for over twelve years. Dragging control points, nudging seams off faces frame by frame, painting out the tripod, rendering, finding the one bad frame, doing it again. Unseam does that part. Less time stitching, more time living.
Ready
Unseam learns the shot once: the background, where people walk, who sits still. It places the seams round them, and as people move the seam moves too, but only when that is clearly better. A seam never goes through the face of someone who stays put.
Ready
Someone close to the rig is seen by two lenses at once, a little apart. Unseam measures the difference and lines them up frame by frame, keeping only the corrections that help. Anyone too close to fix well is left as filmed, not torn.
Ready
Colourists trust a waveform over their eyes. Unseam gives the stitch the same: a timeline of every place a seam moved round someone, every crossing it couldn’t avoid, every person it lined up and every face with a seam through it, and under them a seam meter. Click a spike to go there, mark it fine or fix, and the marks go to Resolve or Premiere Pro as markers. Before a run it checks the lens files too.
Beta
A lane showing how close people came to the camera, the colour of each lens compared across its seams, and an in and out point suggested where the crew is out of shot.
In Stitch · Ready
On a stitched shot, Unseam measures the rig’s footprint and paints the floor in with AI fill, on your Mac. Where matching floor is close by, it copies that instead, with the tile joints lined up. The patch follows the floor’s light through the shot, and gives way when someone’s foot steps over it.
No mask to draw, no logo to place, no clean plate to shoot.
ProRes for Resolve and Premiere Pro, plus files for Quest, Vision Pro and YouTube VR, 360-tagged, with the sound and timecode. Stitch reads timecode from the LTC on the camera’s audio and adds your spots and marks as timeline markers.
Patch and Stitch run on your Mac and need no account: your footage never leaves it, and nothing phones home. Faces and number plates are found and blurred through the shot in the delivered video, so public places can be filmed and shared.
Unseam has its own MCP server, so Claude, or any assistant that speaks MCP, can tell you what failed overnight, queue a shoot, or go through a shot’s spots with you. It only starts a run when you say yes, and only sees a shot’s pictures when you switch that on, never the footage.
Unseam Cloud · Coming later
Not built yet. The idea: the client page and the video behind a link, so your client can look round, leave notes and sign off, and their notes come back into the shot in Unseam. No more big files to send, or feedback by email that says “about a minute in, on the left”. A subscription, on top of Patch or Stitch.
Until then, Patch and Stitch make the client page as a file you can send or put on any web host.
We’re looking for a small group of 360 shooters to try Unseam before it’s released, Patch first. Tell us which one you’re after and a little about how you work, and we’ll be in touch.
It runs on a Mac with Apple silicon. Patch takes a finished video from any camera; Stitch is for the Insta360 Pro 2 to start with. On Windows? Sign up anyway and tell us: it helps us decide what comes next.
