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.

An AI video editor you talk to, not click through
Describe the result you want in everyday language — pacing, framing, captions — and Selects performs the edit, letting you keep giving notes the way you would to a human editor.
Paste a link to a reference video, add your own footage, and Selects recreates the cuts, pacing, captions and effects of that style around your content.
Every camera angle and microphone is lined up automatically, and Selects knows who is speaking so it can cut between the right shots.
Selects watches the footage — shots, faces, best takes — so edits are grounded in what was filmed, not only the spoken words.
