About rough cutsAI video editor
An AI video editor that works like an assistant editor
An AI video editor uses AI to do the slow parts of editing: transcribing and logging footage, finding the best moments, and assembling a first cut from a plain-language request. Eddie AI is an AI video editor for professionals. You chat, Eddie builds a rough cut on a timeline you can change, and you finish in the editor you already use.
What an AI video editor does
Editing starts with work that is slow and repeats: watching hours of footage, logging it, finding the good lines, and putting a first assembly together. An AI video editor takes that work on. It reads your footage, acts on instructions you write in plain words, and hands back something you can review and change. The creative decisions stay with you.
With Eddie, you import your footage and describe the story you want. Eddie finds the best soundbites, removes filler words and awkward silences, and builds the cut. You ask for changes in chat and review what was removed before you export.
What Eddie does for pro editors
Multicam
Eddie syncs your camera angles from audio and visual cues and cuts to the right angle at the right moment, for interviews and podcasts.
About multicamA-roll and B-roll logging
Eddie transcribes A-roll, picks out selects and tags B-roll with visual descriptions, so your media arrives organized.
About loggingCaptions and titles
Word-by-word captions timed from the speech in your cut, plus animated titles and lower thirds.
About captionsB-roll
Describe the shot you need. Eddie can search stock footage from your transcript, or generate a clip when the shot does not exist.
About stock B-rollSocial clips
Eddie finds the strongest moments in long-form video and formats them as vertical clips with captions.
About social clipsFinish in the editor you already use
Eddie does not lock your cut inside one app. Every export is a project, timeline or video file that your editor opens.
- Premiere ProA Premiere project (.prproj)
- DaVinci ResolveA Resolve project (.drp) or FCPXML
- Final Cut ProAn FCPXML timeline
- MP4A rendered video, ready to share
- Avid Media Composer (beta)An AAF written into your open project
Your original media stays where it is. The timeline points at your files, and your editor relinks to them.
Use it from ChatGPT or Claude
Eddie is also an MCP server. Add it once as a connector in ChatGPT or Claude, sign in with your Eddie account, and ask your assistant for the edit. The assistant gets the tools to work on your footage, and the result saves to your Eddie project.

How Eddie differs from template and auto-clip tools
Many AI video tools apply a template, or cut a long video into short clips without further input. That suits a quick social post. Eddie is built for a different job: turning raw footage into a considered cut, in your own editing software.
Template and auto-clip tools
- Start from a template or a preset style.
- Produce a result with little direction from you.
- Aim at short, ready-to-post video.

- Lets you change the cut by asking, and shows what it removed.
- Exports to Premiere, Resolve, Final Cut and MP4, so a pro finishes the job.
