What counts as an AI minute?

One AI minute = one minute of source video, no matter how many features run on it. A 5-min clip with silence + captions + B-roll = 5 AI minutes, not 15.

FAQ

Quick answers

One full Auto Edit run on your own footage — silence removal, retake detection, auto zoom, captions, B-roll, and music — all AI features on, full Pro quality. The free tier caps the input clip at 3 minutes so you can see exactly what the tool does without committing to a subscription. No credit card required.

Pro removes limits (unlimited videos, any duration) and unlocks Podcast Multi-Cam, Highlights & Shorts, and standalone tools. Plus 600 AI minutes/month.

No. EditBuddy handles the repetitive first-pass work. You still control pacing, story, and polish. Think of it as getting a 90% rough cut in minutes instead of hours.

EditBuddy falls back to System mode which runs locally without API calls. Handles silence removal and basic editing. Buy top-ups anytime or wait for monthly reset.

Your original project files stay on your machine - we don't upload your video clips, audio files, or Premiere Pro projects to our servers. Some AI-assisted features (transcription, AI analysis, visual understanding) need a cloud provider to generate a result. For those, the extension sends only the minimum extracted data required - for example, compressed audio, transcript text, vocabulary hints, or low-resolution frames - over encrypted connections to secure cloud providers. Basic editing utilities can still run locally in System mode. Full details are in our Privacy Policy.

Premiere Pro CC 2020 and all newer versions including 2025. Windows and macOS supported.

Yes. Cancel anytime and keep access until the end of your billing period. 30-day money-back guarantee on all Pro plans.

Frequently asked questions

Everything about EditBuddy, Premiere Pro auto editing, and how the AI works.

What is EditBuddy?

EditBuddy is an AI-powered extension for Adobe Premiere Pro that auto-edits your videos. It removes silence and filler words, detects and removes retakes, adds captions, places B-roll, edits multi-cam podcasts, and converts long videos into short-form clips — all directly on your timeline without rendering.

Does EditBuddy work with Premiere Pro on Mac and Windows?

Yes. EditBuddy is a CEP extension that runs inside Adobe Premiere Pro on both macOS and Windows. It supports Premiere Pro 2021 and later.

How does EditBuddy remove silence in Premiere Pro?

EditBuddy analyzes your audio track using a decibel-aware silence detector plus whisper-based word confidence. It ripple-cuts silent gaps from your sequence, keeping natural pauses intact. You can set aggressive, balanced, or subtle modes.

Can EditBuddy add captions and subtitles automatically?

Yes. EditBuddy transcribes your audio and burns animated captions into the timeline using MOGRT templates. Word-level timing, custom fonts, positioning, and emphasis styles are supported.

Does EditBuddy detect retakes and filler words?

Yes. Retake detection uses a hybrid AI + system pipeline: a deterministic detector finds meta-speech and prefix chains (~100ms), then the AI reconstructs a clean script. The two results are merged so false positives are rare. Filler words like "um", "uh", "like", and "you know" are detected and removed with a toggle.

How does automatic B-roll work?

EditBuddy analyzes your transcript segment-by-segment, classifies emotion (positive, motivational, neutral), and picks visually diverse B-roll using metaphor-first prompts. Footage is sourced from Pexels, Pixabay, and YouTube, auto-trimmed, and placed on V3 without disturbing your main cut.

Can I edit podcasts with multiple cameras?

Yes. EditBuddy supports up to 8 speakers mapped to tracks V1–V8 / A1–A8. It analyzes each speaker's mic, syncs cameras, detects active speakers, and overwrites the timeline with the right shot. Wide shots and different shots per speaker are supported.

Can EditBuddy turn long videos into shorts or Reels?

Yes. EditBuddy's Long-form to Shorts pipeline finds viral-worthy moments, auto-reframes them to 9:16 for TikTok, Reels, or YouTube Shorts, burns captions, and exports ready-to-post sequences.

How much does EditBuddy cost?

Start with a 14-day free trial (100 AI minutes, full Pro features, no credit card). After the trial: Starter $19/mo or $15/mo billed yearly ($180/yr), Pro $39/mo or $32/mo billed yearly ($384/yr). Every tier gets the same AI quality — the only differences are volume and a few Pro-only perks. See the pricing section for details.

Is my video uploaded to the cloud?

Your original project files stay on your machine. Some AI-assisted features (transcription, AI analysis, B-roll matching) send the minimum extracted data required — compressed audio, transcript text, low-resolution frames — to cloud providers over encrypted connections. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. Paid plans are eligible for a refund within 30 days. See our refund policy.
