In 2026, the "AI Revolution" in video editing has officially moved past the stage of flashy tech demos and into the era of the daily grind. With the recent release of Adobe Premiere 26 and AI-based plugins like FireCut AI, the conversation has shifted: it's no longer about what AI could do, but what it actually does for your delivery date. 

You no longer have to spend hours on a single project going through the entire footage multiple times just to make the right cuts, and you still might miss out on some point. It is frustrating, right?  Imagine adding a caption manually: transcribing, styling, and aligning. How long would it take? More than an hour for sure, and don’t even get me started on finding copyright-free stock footage or music relevant to your video. You can easily spend an entire day or even two on one project if you do everything yourself manually.

That is where FireCut AI comes in to save the day. FireCut AI is an AI-powered plugin, available for Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, that automates the time-taking and boring tasks of your video editing workflow. Let's look at some of the amazing features FireCut AI has to offer:

Silences, Filler Words, and Repetition Removal:

You do need clean footage to begin with, so start with removing silences, filler words like “umm”, “aahh” etc., and any repetition. Just select a few simple settings and let FireCut AI take charge by cutting out the unnecessary parts in a few minutes. You even get an advanced mode for silence and repetition removal features so you have greater control over what you are removing. 

Automated Captions:

You can add captions in more than 50 languages or even translate your video by adding captions in another language with FireCut AI. You get presets for famous caption styles like hormonzi, boxpop, boxfollow etc., or you can style your own captions by choosing your favorite font, color, size, and animation.

B-rolls, Music, and Zooms:

FireCut AI gives access to multiple libraries like Storyblocks, GIPHY, and Pexels etc., where you can get high-quality royalty-free stock footage for your videos. You can also add background music to your videos using FireCut’s AI technology. If you need to add emphasis at a certain point in your video you can also add zooms. AI picks the important points and adds zooms there. You can also enable facial recognition to zoom in on the people in the video.

Chapters and Highlights:

FireCut AI can also help you with posting the videos you make on social media. You can add chapters and titles to post on social media. It increases the visibility and improves SEO for your video. You can also create highlights from long videos which are ready to post short videos for your social media platforms. This feature adds B-rolls, captions and even changes the orientation of your video to vertical form so it is suitable for social media platforms.

FireCut AI is an absolute must for any video editor using Premiere Pro to edit their videos. It makes you highly efficient, saving up hours of your time and letting you focus on the creative side of content creation. You can do multiple projects in a single day with the help of AI.
