Eddie AI – Desktop Assistant Editor for Professionals
Eddie AI is a downloadable assistant video editor built for professionals who edit longform video content: interviews, documentaries, podcasts, and promotional material.
Eddie is a local app for Mac and Windows that integrates into professional workflows with support for Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, and DaVinci Resolve.
This is not a “make a video in 2 minutes” gimmick. It’s an actual productivity tool designed to eliminate the grunt work of editing: logging, syncing, rough cuts, and clip tagging.
Features
- Desktop application for Mac (M1 & Intel) and Windows
- Imports interviews and generates rough cuts with AI
- Logs A/B rolls into searchable bins and stringouts
- Auto-selects podcast camera angles during editing
- Exports edit-ready files to Premiere or Resolve
- AI-powered B-roll tagging based on dialogue
- Fast turnaround on longform content
- Supports large file formats and pro codecs
Key Applications
- Longform interview editing
- Documentary assembly edits
- Multi-camera podcast productions
- Social media clip creation
- Corporate and branded video workflows
- Agency-level video post-production
Who It’s For
- Freelance editors, documentarians, and agency post-production teams
- Podcasters with multi-angle setups
- Creators who need to turn long footage into usable content fast
- People working with professional NLEs, not mobile-first apps
How It Works
You install Eddie on your machine. Feed it raw footage, such as interviews, screen recordings, podcast multicam, etc. The app analyzes the content, generates rough cuts, creates searchable metadata, and builds project files you can continue editing in your existing software.
It’s fast, local, and accurate out of the box.
Pros
- Works on your machine. No uploads or cloud lag.
- Strong integration with pro editing environments.
- B-Roll tagging and multicam editing are genuinely useful.
- Export formats are editing-friendly, not just final MP4s.
- Saves real hours in pre-edit workflow.
Cons
- 2 exports/month on the free plan with watermarks
- Requires existing knowledge of editing tools
- Limited value for creators who don’t work with longform or multicam
