What is Submagic?
Submagic is an AI video editor that turns raw footage into short-form videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, Facebook Reels and LinkedIn. It adds AI captions in 123 languages, and you cut and trim a video by editing its transcript.
Its Magic Clips feature pulls key moments from a long video and turns them into several shorts. AI auto edit removes silences and adds B-roll, sound effects, transitions and zooms. The editor also covers AI avatar videos, post scheduling and publishing, and a shared team workspace. Exports go up to 4K at 60fps on the Business plan.
Submagic suits creators, social media teams and businesses that publish short videos often. A Video Editing API lets developers automate editing workflows. Paid plans start at $12/month billed yearly.
