Edit video and podcasts by editing text
Edit audio and video by deleting, rearranging or retyping words in the automatic transcript, with a full multitrack timeline available when you need it.
Describe the edit you want in plain language and let the AI assistant assemble a tight cut, add clips and handle repetitive production work.
Remove background noise, level out voices, and fix misread lines with Regenerate Speech using a clone of your own voice.
Generate subtitles and transcripts in a click, translate video into other languages, and reformat long recordings into shareable vertical clips.

Your screen. Perfectly recorded — with local AI editing built in.
Capture a full screen, a single window, a region or just your webcam, with audio and visual settings configured before you start. iPhone and iPad screens can be recorded too.
Trim clips, split layers, add text, images, audio and vector shapes, and adjust layout, typography and colour from one focused control panel.
Auto Zoom Cursor follows cursor activity, and a full graph editor lets you tune easing curves for precise timing, speed and motion.
Captions, filler-word removal, background masking and noise reduction are processed on-device, so your audio and video never leave your Mac.
