Ava
An AI editor that takes your raw video footage and a short description of what you want, then hands back a publish-ready edit with voiceover, subtitles and B-roll already in place.

Description
If you've ever recorded an hour of footage and then spent an entire evening cutting it down into one usable clip, Ava is built to take that grind off your plate. You upload your raw footage, describe the edit you want in plain English, and Ava studies the clips, picks the best moments, and assembles a finished video — cut, captioned, and ready to publish — without you touching a timeline.
Ava is an AI video editing agent from Avlana AG (founded by Matthias Rossini) that combines footage analysis with automated assembly: it identifies usable takes, adds voiceovers and subtitles, integrates B-roll and sound effects, and can produce several style variants (talking-head, highlight recap, narrated explainer, interview cut) from the same source material. The team's own comparison claims what would take roughly 35 hours of manual editing to produce 5 videos can instead generate 20+ video variations in about 2 hours. It launched on Product Hunt as the #3 Product of the Day. Pricing isn't published on the site — you need to contact the team directly to get a quote, which makes it hard to gauge cost against competitors without reaching out first.
💬 Our review
The short version: if your bottleneck is grinding through raw footage to get a few good clips out, not the creative direction, Ava automates the part you hate most — but the lack of public pricing is a real friction point before you can judge the deal.
Ava sits in a crowded and fast-moving category alongside tools like Descript, OpusClip and CapCut's AI features, all of which promise to turn raw footage into finished, captioned clips faster than manual editing. Ava's differentiator is going further into full agentic assembly — footage analysis plus creative direction plus multi-variant output from one prompt — rather than just auto-captioning or clip-finding. That's a genuinely useful step up if you need volume (many video variants from one shoot), but it also means more trust in an AI's editorial judgment, which is a harder thing to verify from a marketing site alone. The opaque, contact-sales-only pricing is the biggest practical drawback: OpusClip and Descript both publish transparent monthly tiers, so you can compare cost before you even sign up, while Ava asks you to talk to sales first. Worth testing if you produce high volumes of short-form video and want AI to handle first-pass assembly, but budget-conscious creators should get a real quote before assuming it beats a transparently-priced competitor.
