  • Recommended assets for each scene

The AI analyzes the text information and extracts keywords, and then displays the recommended asset that matches each video scene. You don’t need to enter keywords in the search box to search for an asset but instead, you can select from the recommendation to speed up the video editing process. You can also refine your search by the type of asset (image or video), by price (paid or free), or by each service provider.
