What used to take you hours.
Done in a few clicks.

01 Media Finder

Every media you need. Without leaving Premiere.

Search images, videos, GIFs, SFX and B-rolls on the web and drop them straight into your edit.

Connect your own B-roll folders too: the AI reads and indexes them so you find the right shot in a few words.

Remove a background in one click or open an image in Photoshop: your changes update in Premiere automatically.

Paste a YouTube, TikTok or Instagram link and the content imports directly.

02 AutoCut

The silences? Gone in one click.

AutoCut finds and cuts the silences straight in your timeline. In seconds your footage is shorter, tighter and ready to edit, without slicing every gap by hand.

And for what silence does not reveal, Cleanup AI rereads the transcript: « um », retakes, false starts, stumbles, tangents. Every detection carries a confidence level, you approve, it cuts.

03 Ask AI

What if the AI could really edit for you?

Connect your Claude account directly and turn it into a real editing agent inside Premiere.

Ask it whatever you want. It can use every tool in the plugin and chain them to build your edit: trimming, cleanup, transcription, captions, B-rolls, motion design, SFX and much more.

Need advice rather than an action? It can also read your video, answer your questions and suggest ideas.

You ask. The AI picks the right tools and handles the rest.

Transcript AI

Studio-grade transcription. Not a word to fix.

Tired of captions that butcher proper nouns and have to be fixed one by one? Here every word is reliable and locked to the millisecond. Add your script: the transcript corrects itself. And after the trim, the AI rereads your edit and flags the extra takes.

Frequently asked questions

?Can the AI really edit a video inside Premiere Pro?

Yes. The AI agent can use the plugin's tools directly to trim, remove silences and repeats, transcribe, create captions, add B-rolls, SFX or motion design. You can drive each tool by hand or ask the AI to chain several jobs for you.

?Do I stay in control of what the AI changes?

Always. You can preview changes before applying them and undo if you don't like the result. The point is to automate the repetitive work, not to take creative control of your edit away from you.

?Can I connect my Claude account straight to Premiere Pro?

Yes. You can connect your Claude account to Ask AI and use it as an agent right inside Premiere Pro. It can read your edit, answer your questions and use the plugin's tools to act on your sequence.

?Can the plugin remove silences, hesitations and repeats automatically?

Yes. The plugin reads the speech to find silences, hesitations, repeats and false starts, so the trim goes faster. You can review everything it found before removing it from your sequence.

?Can it create animated captions automatically in Premiere Pro?

Yes. CaptionFX generates captions locked to the voice with over 80 animated styles, plus word animations and emojis placed automatically on the important moments.

?How does AI B-roll generation work?

B-Roll Studio brings several AI generation models together to create images and videos from text, an image or a video. The AI can also read part of your edit, suggest the B-rolls that fit, write the prompts and generate the shots for you.

?Are my videos and footage sent to a server?

Your edit and your footage stay on your machine. Only the data a given AI feature needs may be sent to that service, such as the audio required for a transcription. Your full videos are not uploaded just to use the plugin.

?Does the plugin work on Mac and Windows?

The plugin works with Premiere Pro 2025 and later on macOS. The Windows version is currently in closed beta and still being tested and improved.
