8 Best AI Video Editing Tools to Use in 2024
By esantiago@hubspot.com (Erica Santiago)
I’ve been editing videos for almost a decade, both professionally and for my passion projects. So, believe me when I say I know how tedious editing even the shortest videos can be.
Fortunately, many AI video editing tools can help speed up the process of editing, whether you’re a beginner or an expert videographer.
Here are 8 of the best AI video editing tools I’ve found and what I like most about them.
Best AI Video Editing Tools
1. Adobe Premiere Pro
I’ve been using Adobe Premiere Pro for work and for my own passion projects for 10 years, so I was intrigued when the video editing software announced that new AI tools are available on its platform and that more are on the way.
These are a few of my favorite AI tools within Adobe Premiere Pro:
- Text-based editing
This feature allows users to auto-generate their transcripts, highlight text to add clips to their timeline, edit, reorder, and refine their clips like they would a text document.
- AI audio category tagging
I love this feature because it makes audio editing a breeze by recognizing if a clip is music, sound effects, dialogue, or ambient sound and providing access to relevant tools for editing based on the sound type.
- Speech to text
To make your videos more accessible, Adobe Premiere Pro‘s speech-to-text feature automatically generates transcripts in up to 18 languages. It can also distinguish between speakers and create captions that match the video’s cadence and speech pattern.
Price: Plans start at $22.99 per month.
Best For: Intermediate to professional video editors. Though beginners can use Adobe Premiere, it does have a bit of a learning curve.
2. DaVinci Resolve
DaVinci Resolve has many AI tools and has incorporated AI into its platform for years. The one I find the most interesting is its facial recognition. Now, bear in mind I have very minimal experience with DaVinci Resolve, so I don’t have much experience with this feature.
That said, its facial recognition allows users to group clips based on the people who appear in them. All I’d have to do is select a group of clips and right-click to select “Analyze Clips for People.” From there, DaVinci Resolve will scan the clips, assess the faces that appear, and group clips with the same faces together.
If you’re editing video of an event with a lot of people and you want to narrow down your clips to include a specific group, this feature will save time and effort.
Price: Users can download DaVinci Resolve for free, or buy the studio version for $295.
Best for: Beginner to expert video editors.
3. CapCut
I can‘t scroll through TikTok for over a minute without seeing a video edited with CapCut. I’ve never used CapCut, but I’m truly amazed by the quality of the videos people churn out using the app.
