Edit by words, not timelines: Transcribe and edit with AI
Timeline editing can feel like looking for a needle in a haystack: scrubbing footage, playing and stopping a clip, and finding the exact moment to cut. VEED lets you edit videos with text instead of messy timelines. We bring you transcription software and AI video editing on one platform. Transcribe a video and modify the text. Your video will update right away.
Want to tighten an interview snippet or remove an off-topic section? Delete the text in the transcript. You can also move sections around with a simple copy-paste. Or export specific sections by highlighting text. VEED’s text-based video editor saves you hours of editing time. Try it now for free.
How to edit a video by editing text:
Step 1
Upload video
Add your video with speech and click the ‘Edit with Script’ button above the timeline. Click the auto-transcribe button to create a text version of your footage.
Step 2
Edit via text
Edit your video by modifying the transcript: delete unwanted sections or copy and paste to reorder scenes. Click the settings to remove silences (short, long, or custom duration) and filler words with one click.

AI video editing, as simple as editing text
