AI Tools for Video Creation and Editing
AI video editing has made professional-quality output accessible to teams without a dedicated editor. The key shift is from timeline-based editing to transcript-based editing — you edit the words, the video follows.

Best AI tools to create and edit video
The most transformative video editing tool for non-editors. Edit video by editing the transcript — delete a word from the text and it disappears from the video. Overdub creates AI voice-overs from your own voice model.
Best for creating professional presenter videos with AI avatars — no camera, no studio. Ideal for training content, product demos, and corporate communications at scale.
The leading AI video generation and editing platform. Gen-3 produces original footage from text or image prompts; the editing tools handle motion, inpainting, and stylisation without a compositor.
