Vidmoat

Vidmoat is a hosted video editor whose AI agent can cut footage, add captions and work on an editable timeline, with optional chat and MCP access.

Vidmoat combines a browser-based video timeline with an AI editing agent. Give it footage and an editing brief, then review the cuts, captions and other changes on the timeline. Manual editing remains available after the agent finishes.

Start with footage and an editing brief

Vidmoat describes prompt-driven edits that remove silence, add word-synced captions and change the video's format. Its published feature list also includes background removal, green screen and effects. Auto-Cut is intended to review longer recordings and assemble selected takes into an editable cut.

For a podcast clip or filmed lesson, a practical brief might specify which speaker or section to keep, where to cut pauses and how captions should look. Check the resulting timeline for misplaced cuts and text before exporting, especially if a caption could change what a speaker meant.

The homepage shows demonstrations of short-form and multi-platform edits. Those examples describe the vendor's workflow; their processing times and finished-video counts should not be treated as promises for your footage.

Work through chat or connect another agent

Vidmoat offers Telegram access through @vidmoat_bot, using the same projects and credit balance as the web editor. Its homepage also describes WhatsApp and Discord access.

An MCP connection lets compatible clients import media, edit the timeline, request frame previews and render MP4 files. The site says MCP sign-in works on every plan. Personal API keys for your own servers are a separate Studio feature, so an ordinary connector login and server-side API access should not be confused. A preview frame gives an external agent a way to inspect an edit, but you still need to judge the final video.

Match the plan to the output

The pricing page lists Hobby at $0, with three projects, eight monthly exports up to 720p, 40 monthly AI credits and a watermark plus a two-second end card. Creator is listed at $19 per month with 4K exports, no watermark and unlimited projects and exports.

Studio is listed at $49 per month and adds image and video generation, personal API keys and larger upload and storage limits. Day Passes provide temporary Creator access without renewal, but generation and personal keys still require Studio.

Manual timeline work does not spend AI credits. Agent edits, captions and other AI features do; included plan credits refresh every 30 days, while purchased credit packs do not expire. For an occasional editing project, compare the pass allowance with the AI operations you expect to use, rather than judging the plan by export resolution alone.

Frequently asked questions

Can I manually change or undo Vidmoat's AI edits?
