Definition
AI video editing refers to the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms to automate, accelerate, and enhance the video post-production process. This includes tasks like automatic scene detection, silence removal, jump cut smoothing, caption generation, B-roll suggestion, speaker detection, and intelligent clip selection. AI video editors analyze visual, auditory, and contextual signals to make editing decisions that traditionally required hours of manual work by a skilled editor.
How Loopdesk Uses This
Loopdesk is an AI-powered video editing platform built from the ground up around this concept. When you upload footage to Loopdesk, AI analyzes every frame — detecting speakers, emotions, scenes, and narrative structure — then automatically generates a professional rough cut. You can refine edits using natural language prompts like 'Remove all silences' or 'Create 3 vertical clips for TikTok'. The entire workflow runs in your browser with no downloads required.
