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.
AI podcast and video summaries delivered to your inbox
Paste an episode URL from Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Pocket Casts, Overcast or Castro and receive a written summary by email, usually in a couple of minutes per hour of audio.
Instead of a link you can upload your own audio or video file and have it summarized the same way.
Follow shows and get an automatic summary each time a new episode is published, without checking manually.
A chat interface attached to each summary lets you ask follow-up questions and explore concepts raised in the recording.
