"Several premium Google Vids features are now open to everyone. You can edit photos, add voiceovers, and remove filler words. The features should make things easier for beginner editors. Google is unlocking some AI features in its popular video editing platform and letting anyone with a Gmail address test them out. Previously, these features were only available to paid users."
"Transcription trim is a feature designed to polish recorded clips by removing filler words and long pauses (Google defines anything over one second as a long pause). To test the feature, I recorded a video in which I read part of a recent article I'd written. I added copious filler words, stumbles, and periods of silence. When the video was finished uploading and I selected "Edit with transcript," I was greeted with a pop-up telling me I had five filler words and nine long pauses."
Google Vids has opened several formerly paid AI editing features to anyone with a Gmail address, including AI-generated voiceovers, AI image editing, and audio cleanup tools. Transcription trim removes filler words and long pauses, with Google defining long pauses as over one second. One-click removal can eliminate “ums” and “uhs” and trim silences, shortening clips and producing a more polished result. Most edits are nearly seamless, with roughly 95% of cuts barely noticeable, and any removed words can be restored individually. The tools aim to simplify editing for beginners and speed up basic post-production tasks.
