Eddie AI is an AI-assisted video editor built for professional editors and video teams. You describe the story you want in plain language, and Eddie turns raw interview footage into a structured rough cut. It runs on the web, on Mac and Windows, and on iPhone. The company says more than 60,000 video professionals use it.
Rough cuts are where Eddie started, but the product now covers color grading, music with audio ducking, lower thirds, motion graphics, voiceover, dubbing and captions. Its stated specialty is interview-driven work such as documentaries, corporate video and podcasts, with finished timelines exported to the editing software a team already uses.
You upload footage and Eddie transcribes every word, syncs camera angles, logs A-roll and tags B-roll by subject and movement. Speakers are identified and named in each clip, so the footage becomes searchable before any editing starts.
Next you chat with Eddie. It finds the best soundbites, removes filler words, false starts and awkward silences, and builds a cut around the story you describe. You can review what was removed before exporting, so nothing is cut without your approval.
Finished work leaves Eddie as a rendered MP4 or as a timeline for Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve. Larger imports and edits show a credit estimate before they run.
The editing core includes rough cuts, multicam that cuts to whoever is talking, scripted edits that follow a script take by take, and social clips that turn one long video into captioned vertical clips. A-roll and B-roll logging produce searchable transcripts and tagged shots.
The polish tools include word-timed karaoke captions, titles and lower thirds, color grading, motion graphics templates, stock B-roll and video generated from a one-line description. Sound tools cover generated music, voiceover, dubbing and transcription in 97 languages.
For automation, Eddie runs as an MCP server and the company lists 117 tools for its API and MCP. That lets Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or Cursor call edits directly.
