Eddie AI “Scripted” Mode Launched – Upload Script & Footage, Get an Instant Rough Cut

Eddie AI, the AI-powered assistant editor, has unveiled “Scripted” mode, a new feature that automatically cuts video to match uploaded scripts in minutes. This latest development continues the company’s mission to streamline the editing workflow for filmmakers and content creators.

The Eddie AI team continues to develop and add features to their AI-powered assistant editor. When we last reported on this tool, the company had integrated Eddie AI natively into Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and Final Cut Pro, making it accessible across the industry’s leading editing platforms.

Addressing a growing market need

The new “Scripted” mode addresses a specific pain point in today’s content landscape. As scripted formats surge on YouTube and in branded content, editors are losing hours manually lining up takes to scripts. Scripted Mode flips this workflow by pairing an uploaded script with source footage, delivering a clean string-out that’s instantly ready for Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut Pro.

Streamlined workflow features

The workflow is designed for efficiency. Editors can review Eddie’s selects directly on the timeline, with alternate takes just a click away. This approach enables faster decision-making, tighter story structure, and significantly less time spent scrubbing through footage.

“Scripted is the fastest way to get from raw takes to your first cut,” explains Shamir Allibhai, CEO of Eddie AI. The feature is particularly valuable for video editors and YouTube creators working with interviews, scripted pieces, branded content, or any project where there’s a written vision to follow.

Company mission and future direction

The development path suggests Eddie AI remains focused on their core mission: eliminating the tedious aspects of the editing process, from logging to stringouts, allowing editors to concentrate on the storytelling that matters most. For content creators working with script-based projects, this new mode represents a time-saving opportunity, potentially reducing the gap between raw footage and first cut from hours to minutes.

Pricing and availability

The company allows you to test your footage with Eddie AI for free (see the upper slide for more information). Then, a subscription starts at $25/month, and can go up to $250/month for their Pro+ offering, so depending on your editing needs, you might find the level of AI assistant for editing you are looking for.
