Underlord, its AI co-editor, plus Studio Sound, voice cloning and screen recording turn a single tool into a full production pipeline for creators and teams.
Text-based editing
Edit audio and video by deleting, rearranging or retyping words in the automatic transcript, with a full multitrack timeline available when you need it.
Underlord AI co-editor
Describe the edit you want in plain language and let the AI assistant assemble a tight cut, add clips and handle repetitive production work.
Studio Sound and speech regeneration
Remove background noise, level out voices, and fix misread lines with Regenerate Speech using a clone of your own voice.
Captions, translation and clip export
Generate subtitles and transcripts in a click, translate video into other languages, and reformat long recordings into shareable vertical clips.
強み・メリット
+Editing video by editing a transcript is dramatically faster than timeline scrubbing for interview, podcast and talking-head content
+Audio and visual AI features (Studio Sound, Eye Contact, Green Screen, Regenerate Speech) cover fixes that would otherwise need several tools
Recording, editing, captioning, translation and clip export all live in one workspace, reducing handoffs
+Remote Rooms recording and link-based review with time-coded comments suit distributed teams
+Strong enterprise story: SOC 2 Type II, SAML SSO, SCIM and GDPR-compliant data handling
制約・デメリット
–Heavy AI features and exports are gated behind paid plans, and free-tier limits are tight
–Long or complex projects with many tracks can feel heavier and slower than a dedicated non-linear editor
–Best results still come from clean source audio, so noisy recordings may need manual attention
–Advanced users who need granular effects and color work may still finish in another editor
–Billing is per seat, so costs add up quickly for large teams
YOUS
YOUS is a messenger with an AI-based translator built into audio and video meetings, phone calls and text chats, so two people can each speak their own language and still understand each other.
AI translation inside audio and video meetings
Create a one-to-one online meeting and select your language and your partner's; YOUS translates each side's speech live and shows a running transcript in the text panel.
Phone calls with a translator
Call mobile and landline numbers and have the AI translate telephone speech during the call, with transcription of what is said on both sides.
Multilingual messenger
Send and receive messages in your native language and let YOUS translate chat messages both ways, so neither person has to type in a second language.
Speech transcription in chat format
The words spoken by participants are recognised and displayed as text, giving a readable record of what was said during the conversation.
強み・メリット
+Translation is embedded in meetings, calls and chat rather than being a separate tool
+Works on iOS, Android and in any browser with no install required for web use
+Generous free tier with a messenger plus monthly translated meeting minutes
+Broad language coverage across 17 widely spoken languages
+Chat messages are encrypted and call content is stated not to be retained
制約・デメリット
–Meetings are limited to one-to-one; group meetings are not yet available
–Free plan only includes 5 translated minutes a month, with extra minutes at $0.25 each
–Phone calls require the paid Plus subscription and are billed by tariff
–Some site copy is machine-translated, which can read awkwardly in places
