Local-first · Your footage never leaves your machine
AI video editor
EditAssist is a local-first AI video editor that operates DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, After Effects and Final Cut directly. Describe the cut in plain English and it searches every frame, builds timelines, matches colour, and delivers to spec. Your footage never leaves your machine.
Natural language video editing
Edit video by describing what you want in plain English. EditAssist understands natural language commands and operates DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, After Effects and Final Cut directly. No scripting, no macros, no memorising shortcuts.
Auto clip generator
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.
YouTube Shorts generator

Sync multiple camera angles automatically using audio waveforms, clap detection, and visual analysis. EditAssist builds multicam sequences in DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, and Final Cut without requiring timecode or slate metadata.

AI auto captions
Generate accurate captions automatically from local transcription. EditAssist transcribes every word on your own machine, times them precisely, and burns them into the video or exports as SRT/VTT. No cloud upload, no per-minute fees.
AI B-roll finder
Find the perfect B-roll by describing it in plain English. EditAssist indexes every frame locally and uses semantic search to locate cutaways, establishing shots, inserts, and atmosphere across your entire media library.

Reframe horizontal video to vertical 9:16 automatically with subject-aware cropping. EditAssist tracks faces and action to keep the important content in frame, then exports to TikTok, Reels, Shorts, and Stories specs.
