Text overlays, placed by AI

Callouts and reactions that land on the right moment

VIDIO reads what happens in your video and adds titles, labels, captions and emoji where they help, then times the whole edit for the platform you post on.

Tell it what to point out

Describe the overlays you want, like step numbers for a tutorial or prices for a product video, and VIDIO places them.

Add a step number at each new step and label the tools

Every moment, listed

VIDIO lists the moments it found with its picks marked. Switch on the one it skipped to give it an overlay of its own.

NO WAY 😱

Refine by hand

Move a cut and the text overlays follow

After AI creates the edit, add or remove cuts, overlays, titles, and beats while matching transitions, captions, and music update automatically.

I tried your compositing software and I think it is terrific! It works really well in the preview that I did. Blown away, actually.
