Auto clip generator
find the best moments, cut automatically
Automatically find the best moments in your footage and generate polished clips. EditAssist uses semantic search, audio analysis, and vision to identify highlights, then builds timelines and exports to spec. All local, all private.
Workflow
Ingest your rushes and the agent indexes every frame and transcribes every word. Ask for 'the three funniest moments from the 8-hour stream' or 'the best crowd reactions from the concert' and it searches across the entire project, ranks candidates by audio energy, visual interest, and narrative relevance, then builds a selects timeline.
From the selects it can auto-reframe to vertical, burn in captions, normalise loudness, and batch-export across 32 delivery specs. You review the assembly, give corrections in plain English, and the agent refines. The whole pipeline runs on your own GPU.
