AI that edits your video like a professional editor would
Pick a visual style and Captions cuts scenes, adds zooms, overlays B-roll and music, and returns a fully edited video in one pass.
Generate animated word-level captions with stylized fonts, or translate and subtitle content in more than 100 languages.
Create a digital twin or choose from a library of ready-made avatars, then reuse the same presenter across topics with prompt-based changes to outfits and backdrops.

The collaborative whiteboard built for product builders
AI Flowcharts, AI Mind Maps and AI Wireframes convert a short text prompt into structured, fully editable diagrams, branched mind maps, or web and mobile wireflows — no manual drawing required.
Boards host diagrams, flowcharts, mind maps, wireframes, embedded media and documents side by side, so a whole product narrative lives in a single shareable file.
Multiple teammates edit the same board simultaneously with live cursors, thread comments attached to specific objects, and mention-based notifications.
Drag-and-drop UI components let teams sketch screens, link them into clickable flows and iterate on product ideas before engineering commits to a build.
