Trim, cut and arrange on a pro multi-track timeline, then let AI do the heavy lifting — auto captions, voiceovers, background removal, remove silence, auto reframe and one-tap shorts. All in your browser. No watermark to start.
A real timeline editor with an AI-first workflow built in.
Drag, trim, split, ripple-edit and snap clips across unlimited video, audio, text and overlay tracks — with waveforms, thumbnails and frame-accurate scrubbing.
15 pro transitions (crossfade, zoom, whip, glitch, film burn…) and a full color engine — brightness, contrast, LUT-style grades, vignette, grain, glow — with keyframes.
Generate word-by-word animated captions in TikTok, YouTube and Reels styles. Edit, restyle and export .SRT.
Turn text into natural narration in dozens of voices and accents — preview each voice before you pick, then drop it on the timeline.
Auto-remove silence, AI jump cuts, scene detection, auto chapters, highlights and one-tap AI shorts — you stay in control, nothing runs automatically.
Remove, blur or replace the background on images and video, then composite over a color, image or another clip.
VidMints is an online video editor that runs entirely in your browser. At its core it works like any timeline editor: you add clips, arrange them left to right, trim what you don't want and stack video, audio, text and overlays on separate tracks. The "AI" part isn't a black box that edits for you — it's a set of optional tools you trigger yourself to handle the slow, repetitive jobs, like finding and cutting silent gaps, transcribing speech into captions, generating a voiceover from text, or separating a person from their background.
Under the hood, your media is read from your own device and streamed into the editor, which is why a long or high-resolution file opens without a lengthy upload. When you run an AI tool, that specific step is processed and the result comes back as an editable layer — captions you can retype, a voice track you can move, a masked clip you can composite over something else. Nothing is baked in until you export, so every AI suggestion stays adjustable by hand.
If you only need to grab source footage first, use the video downloader; if you mainly want subtitles, the dedicated captions and transcription tools go deeper. For stills, the photo editor covers image work. Browse everything in the tools directory.
A five-minute path from raw footage to a publish-ready clip.
Open the editor and drop in clips from your device, or start from a VidMints-generated video. Files stream from your device, so large clips open without a long upload wait.
Drag clips onto the multi-track timeline, then trim the ends, split at the playhead and reorder. Snapping and ripple edits keep everything aligned as you go.
Run the tools you actually need — remove silence, jump cuts, background removal or auto reframe. Each one shows its credit cost first and only runs when you click it.
Generate auto-captions, drop in an AI voiceover, add transitions and adjust color. Everything stays editable on its own track so you can fine-tune by hand.
Choose your aspect ratio and quality, render, and download the finished file — or export captions as .SRT to upload alongside the video.
Real workflows the editor was built to shorten.
Turn a long recording into vertical TikTok, Reels and Shorts clips — auto reframe to 9:16, remove dead air and burn in word-by-word captions.
Trim lecture recordings, cut mistakes, add chapters and captions so lessons are searchable and accessible.
Cut product demos and testimonials into ad-ready clips, match brand colors and add voiceover without booking a studio.
Remove silence and filler, generate captions and pull highlight clips to promote each episode.

Every tool shows its credit cost up front and only charges when it runs.
No tool fits every job. Here's where this one has edges, so you can decide with eyes open.
AI tools use credits. Editing, trimming and arranging clips is free, but generation-heavy tools (voiceover, background removal, AI shorts) draw from your credit balance — the cost is shown before each run.
AI results need review. Auto-captions, silence removal and scene detection are strong starting points, not perfect. Accented speech, background noise, music and overlapping voices can produce errors you should proofread and adjust.
It runs in the browser, so your device matters. Very long or 4K projects with many tracks can feel heavy on older phones or low-RAM laptops. A recent browser and a stable connection give the smoothest experience.
Some features require a signed-in account. Saving projects, using credits and exporting in higher quality are tied to your account, so you'll need to sign in for those.
This is not a broadcast NLE. VidMints covers most social, marketing and course workflows, but it isn't aimed at multi-hour cinema color pipelines or advanced node-based compositing.
Editor feels slow or laggy? Close other heavy browser tabs, work with fewer tracks at once, and split very long recordings into shorter sequences.
A clip won't import? Confirm it's a common format and not corrupted; try re-saving or converting it, and make sure the file finished downloading.
Captions are wrong? They're editable — fix the text directly. Accents, jargon and noisy audio cause most errors, so clean audio transcribes best.
Export stalled? Keep the tab open and your connection stable, try a shorter test render, and check the help center if it persists.
• Do your rough cut first — lay clips down and trim the obvious junk before spending credits on AI tools, so you only process the footage you're keeping.
• Run remove-silence early on talking-head footage; it often removes a third of the runtime and makes everything after it faster to edit.
• Keep captions on their own track so you can restyle or reposition them without touching the video underneath.
• Export a short test render before committing to a long final export, especially the first time you use a new aspect ratio or effect.
• Preview AI voices before you generate the full narration — it saves credits and avoids re-doing a long voiceover in the wrong tone.
Desktop editors like Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve are more powerful for long-form, color-critical work, but they mean an install, a learning curve and, often, a subscription. Mobile apps like CapCut are quick for phone edits yet limited on a bigger screen and harder to manage for longer projects. Dedicated caption tools do one job well but leave the rest of the edit somewhere else.
VidMints sits in the middle: a real multi-track timeline you can open in any browser, paired with AI tools and generation in the same workspace so you don't jump between apps. If your work lives on YouTube, TikTok, Reels and Shorts and you value speed over a broadcast-grade finish, that trade tends to be worth it. Compare what's included on the pricing page, and read workflow guides on the blog.
Yes. You can import clips from your device — including content you saved with the VidMints downloader — and edit them on the timeline. You should only edit and publish video you created or have the rights to use.
You can render standard MP4 video and export captions separately as an .SRT file. Common social aspect ratios are supported, including 16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for Reels/Shorts/TikTok and 1:1 for feed posts.
Media you add is read from your device and streams locally in the editor, so large files open quickly. AI tools that require processing (like voiceover or background removal) do send that step to be processed, which is why they use credits and need a connection.
Signed-in projects autosave so you can resume later on the same account. As a habit, finish or export important work before closing, and keep your original source files as a backup.
Auto-captions handle clear speech well but can misread names, jargon, accents and noisy audio. Every caption is fully editable — you can correct text, retime words and restyle before exporting.
Yes. VidMints pairs the timeline editor with its own AI generation tools, so a clip you create can go straight onto the timeline for trimming, captions and export without switching apps.
