AI Edit has 116 styles: 21 Premium and 95 Basic. Choosing the right one makes a big difference in how your content lands. This guide explains what the styles actually do and how to pick the right one for your use case.

​
What a style controls

When you pick a style, it determines:
  • Caption appearance: font, color, size, animation
  • Motion graphics: transitions, text overlays, graphic elements
  • B-roll selection: how AI-generated imagery is selected and placed
  • Music and sound effects: the genre and energy of the backing track
  • Overall pacing and aesthetic: the editing rhythm and visual tone
You can customize individual elements after AI Edit runs, but the style sets the starting point.

​
Premium vs. Basic styles

Premium styles are more opinionated and polished. Each has a distinct visual identity. They tend to work best for content that should look intentional and produced. Basic styles are broader and more neutral. They’re great for testing before committing to a Premium style, or for content where you want the edit to support rather than dominate.

​
How to find the right style for your content

The honest answer is: preview a few and pick the one that fits. The style names give some signal but the best way is to browse the library with your clip loaded. That said, here’s a framework for narrowing it down:
Look for styles where the name suggests structure or clarity: Blueprint, Clarity, Lumen, Magazine, Core. These tend toward readable captions and restrained motion graphics. Good for educational, tutorial, or professional content.
Look at the more expressive Premium names (Neon, Rebel, Ignite, Sketch) or browse the Basic library, which has 95 options ranging from minimal to expressive. These lean into big typography and fast-paced editing.
Styles with cinematic or elevated names (Film, Analog, Elevate, Vinyl II, Prime) tend toward a more considered, produced aesthetic. Pick one and use it consistently across all your videos.
Core, Clarity, and Velocity are reliable starting points that work across a wide range of talking-head content. If you’re not sure, start with one of these.
Generate with a 30-second test clip before running AI Edit on your full video. It’s faster and lets you compare a few styles without spending credits on a long clip.

​
How to preview before committing

Tap any style in the AI Edit panel to see a preview before you generate. The preview shows a sample of what the style looks like. Review the caption design, motion graphics, and overall feel before tapping Generate.
If you’re unsure, generate with a 30-second test clip before running AI Edit on your full video. It’s faster and lets you compare styles without burning through credits on a long video.

​
Mixing and customizing

After AI Edit runs, you can:
  • Change the style on a single shot: tap the shot → tap AI Edit → choose a different style
  • Swap colors: tap Custom color to apply your brand color across the entire edit
  • Replace B-roll: tap any media overlay → Replace to swap it out
  • Edit captions: tap any word to fix transcription errors or adjust timing
The style is a starting point, not a constraint.

​
What if none of the styles feel right?

Try a few things:
  1. Run AI Edit with 2–3 different styles on a short clip and compare
  2. Apply your preferred style and then customize the color, caption style, and B-roll manually
  3. Use Chat to Edit to describe the adjustments you want in natural language
