8. First edits in the editor

First edits of the finished reel — playback, fixing a caption, deleting an extra clip, the AI assistant and undo. All manual edits are free.

Step 8 of 9 · 2–4 minutes

The reel is ready, but the last word is yours. The Editor section is simple: the preview on top, a full-width timeline, and at the bottom the tools for whatever is selected. All manual edits are free, show up in the preview right away and are saved automatically — the project header says Saved.

Let's make three typical edits: fix a word in the captions, remove an extra clip and ask the AI assistant to clean up the speech.

Step 1 of 5
  1. The editor on a wide screen: preview, timeline, tools; Space plays the reel
  2. Double-click a phrase on the captions track — the “Caption” sheet
  3. Fix the text and click “Done”
  4. Click a clip and press Delete — the clip is removed
  5. ⌘ Z — the edit is undone

Watch the reel

Tap ▶ under the preview or the preview itself. The timeline moves under the playhead in the middle; scroll the strip to seek. The tracks, top to bottom: video, captions, elements, audio, music.

iPhone and iPad

Space — play and pause, ← → — one frame, the wheel scrolls the strip, Ctrl or ⌘ + wheel zooms.

Fix a word in the captions

  1. Tap a phrase on the captions track — the phrase tools appear at the bottom.
  2. Tap Edit text. The Caption sheet opens with the phrase text.
  3. Fix the text and tap Done.

The words keep the timing of the spoken ones — timing and highlights stay. Changed your mind — Restore the original text.

Faster: double-click or right-click the phrase on the captions track, or select it and press Enter.

Remove an extra clip

  1. Tap a clip on the video track — it is selected and the clip tools appear.
  2. Tap Delete. The neighbouring clips close the gap.

Want to remove only part of a clip? Drag the handle at its edge, or put the playhead there and tap Split. Details — Clips.

Undo if something is off

Undo and Redo are in the control row under the preview (⌘ZCtrlZ and ⇧⌘ZCtrlShiftZ). Any edit can be undone, including one made by the AI assistant.

Ask the AI assistant

Clear the selection and tap AI assistant on the toolbar — the AI mode opens.

  • Remove filler words (free) — cuts “uhm” and similar words across the whole reel.
  • A command in your own words — for example, Make it more dynamic or Cut to 30 seconds. A command is charged at cost — exactly what the AI service charges; the price and its limit are shown above the input field. It is charged only if the assistant changed something; otherwise — No changes — no tokens charged.

Details — AI assistant.

Style lives in Settings

Font, accent and caption style are changed in the project's Settings section — free and visible in the editor right away. The finished video is updated by export — that is the next step.
