Editing is often the most time-consuming part of video creation. AI features in modern editors handle many of the tedious steps.
Text-based editing
Some editors transcribe your footage so you can edit the video by deleting words in the transcript. Rough cuts become much faster.
Common AI features
- Auto captions: styled subtitles in many languages
- Filler word and silence removal: cut "ums" and pauses automatically
- Smart reframing: turn horizontal video into vertical while keeping the subject centered
- Clip finder: pick highlight moments from long videos
- Audio cleanup: remove background noise and echo
- Generative fill and B-roll: extend shots or create filler footage
- Background removal: no green screen needed
Plan the edit with AI
Here's my transcript. Suggest an edit plan: where to cut, where to add
B-roll (and what kind), where to add text on screen and music changes,
for a 60-second vertical version and an 8-minute YouTube version.
Keep the human touch
Pacing, emotion and storytelling still benefit from human judgment. Use AI for the grunt work and your time for creative choices.
