Video Editor — Scene-based video editing on the design canvas

Video, the design-app way

Instead of a traditional multi-track timeline, photoaicompany treats each design page as a scene. Drop video clips from Pexels stock or your own uploads onto the canvas, arrange text and graphics over them, set each page's duration, and export the whole thing as video.

This makes intros, outros, animated social posts, and ad creatives dramatically faster to build than in a full NLE — and everything you already know about the canvas still applies.

What you can do

Video layers — place video clips as canvas elements, alongside text, images, and shapes.
Trimming — set a start and end point on any clip to use exactly the section you want.
Playback control — mute, loop, and preview clips right on the canvas.
Scene durations — set how long each page holds during video export.
Export — record to WebM and convert to MP4, ready for TikTok, Reels, YouTube, or your ad account.

An honest note about timelines

There is currently no traditional multi-track timeline with keyframes and audio tracks — if you need frame-precise multi-track editing, a dedicated video editor is still the right tool. For motion graphics, social video, and ad creatives, the scene-based approach is faster and stays inside the app you already design in.

Frequently asked questions

Yes — export to MP4 or WebM from the export dialog. Each page becomes a scene with the duration you set.

Search Pexels stock video right inside the app, or upload your own footage.

Not a traditional multi-track one. Editing is scene-based: each design page is a scene with its own duration, which keeps video projects simple and fast.
