Text and titles	Title cards, lower thirds, and text overlays
Music	Add a track, duck it under speech, cut to the beat
Motion graphics	Animated lists, callouts, and titles from a description
Masks	Put text behind a person, or reframe with a tracked mask
Presets	Save caption styles and graphics and reuse them across projects
Export	MP4 (H.264) up to 4K on Pro plans, or WebM up to 1080p

Two ways to edit, one project

By hand. Drag clips on the timeline, trim to the frame, type a caption, set a volume. The editor works like any other.

By description. Type what you want and the AI does the clicking. "Cut this to 60 seconds, best takes only." "Make 'eighty percent' bigger and yellow." It edits the same timeline you see, so you can take over at any point.

Most people do both. Let the AI make the rough cut and the captions, then fix the last few things by hand.

Prompts to paste

Build a rough cut from these clips. Keep my best take of each point, cut pauses over half a second, and keep the order I spoke in. No captions or music yet.

Add captions, 3 to 5 words each, bold white with a thin outline, lower third. Then add the track I uploaded at 25% under my voice.

Export 1080x1920 for TikTok and 1920x1080 for YouTube.
