Step 1
Upload your recorded footage
Bring in your interview, product demo, webinar clip, or raw footage. Editly handles long recordings and multi-clip projects.
Editly AI
Best InVideo Alternative
Can Editly create videos from a script like InVideo?
No — Editly edits footage you've already recorded. It doesn't generate video from a script or pull stock footage. If you need to create video content from text alone, InVideo is the right tool for that workflow.
InVideo vs Editly: Which Fits Your Workflow?
The right choice depends on whether you're creating from scratch or editing footage you already have.
| Decision | InVideo | Editly |
|---|---|---|
| Input type | InVideo: starts from a script, topic, or template — fills with stock footage and AI narration | Editly: starts from your raw footage — AI edits it according to your prompt |
| Editing approach | InVideo: template builder with drag-and-drop scene editing and stock asset library | Editly: plain-English prompt — describe the cut, receive the video |
| Silence removal | InVideo: not applicable to template workflow; footage-based editing requires manual trimming | Editly: silence removal is a prompt instruction — applied automatically across uploaded footage |
| Pricing for clean exports | InVideo: $30/month Business plan to remove watermark and access full features | Editly: 3 free clean exports; Pro $28/month for 100 exports |
