FAQ

›What is a chat video editor?

An editor that takes natural-language instructions and turns them into timeline edits — cuts, captions, reframes — instead of requiring every action by hand.

›Can I export a chat-edited timeline to Premiere or Resolve?

Some can. Filter by export format below; only formats confirmed on the vendor's own page are shown.

›Which ones can an external agent drive?

Look for the MCP or API control-surface badge. Descript, Kapwing, Cardboard and Eddie list MCP access on their official pages.
