Before you
press record.

What kinds of video can I use?+

Upload common video formats or paste a link to your own YouTube video. Long-form interviews, podcasts, tutorials, and talking-head content work especially well.

How does AI choose the best clips?+

The editor studies the transcript and the shape of the conversation to find strong hooks, complete ideas, emotional moments, and clean endings. You always choose what gets published.

Yes. Adjust the cut, edit by transcript, change the crop, pick a caption style, apply filters, and fine-tune the final result before export.

Does it make captions automatically?+

Yes. Captions are generated from the transcript, timed to speech, and can be styled for your brand or the platform you're posting to.
