Vrew
Text-based AI video editor: edit footage by editing the transcript.
About
Vrew is a cross-platform AI video editor (Mac, Windows, Ubuntu) built around transcript-based editing. Uploaded videos are automatically transcribed and broken into word-level blocks, so cutting a sentence from the transcript cuts the corresponding footage and audio. This makes it especially efficient for speech-heavy content like talking-head videos, interviews, tutorials, lectures, and webinars.
Beyond text editing, Vrew offers an AI Speech Editor that regenerates corrected words in the original voice without re-recording, auto-captions with subtitle translation into 100+ languages, silence removal, 200+ AI voices for narration, and generative tools for voiceovers, images, and scripts. Reviewer coverage notes a free tier and paid plans, with a document-like interface aimed at beginners.
