AVE - Local-first AI video editor for Mac

by•
AVE is a local-first AI video editor for Mac. It helps creators import footage, analyze transcripts and visual notes, search by what appears or is said in clips, then turn selected footage into reviewable timeline work. AVE is useful for launch videos, B-roll search, interview highlights, generated-footage assembly, and private local editing where the project should stay on the Mac by default.

Hi again Product Hunt, I built AVE because I kept wanting the AI layer in a video editor to understand my own footage before trying to make anything. The first wedge is asset intelligence: import local clips, analyze transcripts and visual notes, search for moments by intent, then turn selected shots into reviewable timeline edits. It is Mac-first and local-first, so projects, media, analysis, timeline edits, and exports stay on the Mac by default. AVE is early, but the shape is finally right enough to start showing.
