PromoAI: How to edit the captions of your AI videos

Don't love the captions that AI generated? Rewrite them on your own.

While PromoAI generates videos for you effortlessly, you can still edit the captions on your AI videos to realize your artistic and marketing vision.

There are two ways to do so. The first way is to type to edit - using a conversational chat-based-editor. The second way is via a manual visual video editor.

Type to change captions using the Chat-based-editor, conversational interface

1 Find your suggested AI video in your planner

Navigate to the day your suggested AI video appears, and click on the thumbnail to open it as a Preview.

2 Open the chat-based-editor

Click 'Chat to Edit' to open your suggested AI video and edit it via conversational interface.

3 Type to edit the captions

In the bottom right of the screen, type in how you would like your captions to be replaced. For example, you can ask: "Re-write the captions to emphasize our special friday deals", or "rewrite the captions to be in a more casual tone", or "change the first caption to say "I love you Amy!"

4 Review your new video and change as necessary

After your video is regenerated, the preview will start playing. Review it and see if you like the changes.

5 Click save (or Discard)

You will receive a 'success' message, and your updated AI video preview will start playing immediately. If you like these changes and are satisfied with your video, click 'Save' on the top right to save changes. If you do not like these changes, click 'Discard' and you will retain your original AI suggested video.

6 Use your edited AI video

Once you have saved your changes, you can use your video: download it to your device, or publish it to social media directly from Promo.

Replace clips via online video editor

3 Select the section you would like to replace

In the timeline below your video, click on the text captions you would like to replace. Then click the text itself on the stage above.

4 Type the text you want to see

Write captions as you see fit

5 Click save (or Discard)

On the bottom left, click 'Save & Preview' if you are satisfied with your edits. Alternatively, you can click 'Discard' if you would like to keep your original AI suggested video.

6 Use your edited AI video

Once you have saved your changes, you can use your video: download it to your device, or publish it to social media directly from Promo.
