Record, edit and publish. One app. Your AI.
The desktop video editor for creators who ship. Screen, camera and remote-podcast recording, transcript-fast editing, captions and motion graphics — driven by your hands or your AI agent. No subscription, no upload queue.
The whole loop, one window.
Record
Screen, camera, or a remote guest by link. Full quality, captured locally.
Edit
Delete words from the transcript and the video follows. Fillers and silences gone in a click.
Publish
Captions, zooms, AI titles and thumbnails, then straight to YouTube.
The whole thing, in two minutes.
Connect your ChatGPT. Edit like a pro.
Plug in your own ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini account and edit by asking. Titles, captions, cuts, whole videos. Your AI, your quota — no markup, no extra subscription.
If you can delete a word, you can edit a video.
Every recording is transcribed on-device. Delete text and the video re-cuts to match. Strip "um", "uh" and dead air across the whole timeline in one click — no scrubbing, no razor tool.
- Remove filler words automatically
- Remove silences over a threshold
- Search and delete across the transcript
The first editor your AI can actually drive.
