Best AI Tools For Video - After Testing 300+ AI Tools
These are the video creation platforms that made the cut (and why they matter for modern marketers)
If you’ve ever typed “best AI video tools” into Google and immediately regretted it…
I get it.
There are hundreds of tools promising to streamline, automate, or “revolutionize” your content creation process. Most are clunky. Some are confusing. A few are pretty good.
After testing 300+ platforms across the video and content ecosystem, here are the few I actually use daily—tools that are fast, intuitive, and actually help move the needle.
🎬 VEED.IO – User-Friendly Editing That Packs a Punch
Whether you’re just getting started or you’re a pro who wants something lean, VEED.IO is one of the best all-in-one platforms out there. It’s intuitive, fast, and loaded with AI-powered features like subtitles, background removal, and voice transcription.
It’s perfect for:
- Quick social edits
- Short-form repurposing
- Clean, simple timelines that won’t overwhelm you
It’s my go-to when I want quality edits without the technical headache.
🎙️ Riverside.fm – The Virtual Recording Upgrade
Zoom and Google Meet were never built for content creation. Riverside.fm was.
I use Riverside to record podcast episodes, virtual interviews, and remote video sessions—without sacrificing quality. It captures local audio/video in high-definition, even if the internet lags.
That said, the UI could be a bit more user-friendly. But the trade-off in quality is worth it.
💡 GetKlippie.com – Instant Video Ideas From Your Website
This one’s pure magic. Drop in your website URL, and Klippie spits out dozens of smart video content ideas in seconds.
It’s perfect for:
- Overcoming content planning blocks
- Aligning video with your product/service messaging
- Getting out of your own head and into execution mode
If you’re a marketer or founder constantly asking, “What should we talk about next?” — this is for you.
📁 Foreplay.co – Swipe File Organization, Reimagined
Gone are the days of saving Instagram Reels in your Notes app or screenshotting Facebook ads. Foreplay lets you save, tag, and organize ad creatives from any platform—and yes, it’s great for competitor research too 👀
It’s like a digital inspiration board meets spy tool. And if you’re in paid media or content strategy, it’ll save you hours.
🎥 OpenAI’s Sora – Text-to-Video (The Future Is Here)
Okay, this one isn’t a daily use tool yet—but it’s coming.
Sora is OpenAI’s breakthrough in text-to-video generation. Just type a prompt, and it creates realistic video output. The technology is still in early development, but the results are mind-blowing.
Bookmark this one. It’s the direction everything is headed.
📈 vidIQ – Grow Your YouTube Channel the Smart Way
YouTube success isn’t just about good content—it’s about strategic publishing. vidIQ helps you optimize your videos with real-time keyword suggestions, competitor analysis, and trending topic insights.
Think of it as your SEO assistant for video. Especially useful if you’re trying to grow authority in a niche or rank for specific terms.
🎞️ RunwayML – Hollywood Tools for Advanced Creators
This one’s a beast—and definitely built for creators who know their way around a timeline.
Runway offers next-gen tools like AI video editing, object tracking, background removal, motion capture, and more. If you want cinematic polish and full creative control without a studio budget, this is your playground.
