Slicer is an AI editor for vertical videos — Reels, Shorts and TikTok. You upload videos, photos, music or a voice-over and pick a style; Slicer cuts pauses and slips, picks the best moments, frames the shot in 9:16 and adds word-by-word captions, camera motion, emoji, callouts and sound effects. The director reviews and fixes the finished reel itself. In the editor you can fix any detail, and after export the reel goes out to YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and VK by itself. Slicer works in the browser and in the app for iPhone, iPad and Mac.
