🎬 Vibe Editor: AI-Powered Video Editing

Talk to your editor, don't wrestle with timelines.

Vibe Editor brings the power of conversational AI to video editing. Instead of spending hours learning complex editing software, you can:

• Describe your vision: "Make this scene more dramatic with slow motion and dark filters"
• Request specific edits: "Add a zoom transition between these two clips"
• Apply effects naturally: "Give this footage a vintage film look"
• Adjust timing: "Speed up the boring parts and emphasize the action"

The AI understands your creative intent and automatically applies the appropriate:

• ✂️ Cuts and transitions
• 🎨 Color grading and filters
• 🎵 Audio mixing and effects
• 📐 Composition and framing adjustments
• ⚡ Pacing and rhythm changes

How It Works

1. Upload your footage to the Vibe Editor.
2. Describe your edit in natural language
3. Review the AI's work with real-time preview
4. Refine with conversation - ask for adjustments
5. Export your masterpiece in any format

Experience the future of video editing at /vibe - currently authentication is required to avoid the prototype being abused. You also need to bring in your own OpenAI API Key in settings.
