What is InVideo AI?
InVideo AI is a browser-based video tool from invideo that pairs AI generation with a full multitrack editor. You describe the video you want, or upload your own footage, and AI agents build or edit it on a timeline. You can take over at any frame and adjust clips by hand. invideo calls it an "agentic" video editor: the AI acts on your instructions instead of just spitting out one-off clips.
Inside one tab you get access to 200+ AI models for video, image and audio — including Seedance, Kling, Veo 3.1, Runway's Gen-4 Aleph, Nano Banana Pro and ElevenLabs voices — plus a library of 16 million+ stock media items. Generation is paid for with credits. Editing on the timeline costs nothing, so you can cut, colour-grade and mix audio without touching your allowance.
The main difference from one-shot AI video generators is the editing agent. You can ask it to remove pauses and filler words, reframe a 16:9 video to vertical, or match the look across shots, and it applies the change across the whole timeline. Teams can edit together with live cursors, and you can connect outside assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini to drive the editor for you.

Key features
Editing agent (Agent Two)
Type an instruction — cut the pauses, mute this clip, swap the voiceover — and invideo's own agent applies it on the timeline. It can also generate new shots. Agent Two's work costs credits, and each message has a menu showing what that request used.
AI video and image generation
Generate clips and images from a prompt with models such as Seedance, Kling, Veo 3.1 and Nano Banana Pro. Every model has its own credit price, and video is charged per second. For anything costing 1 credit or more, the agent shows a price and waits for your go-ahead.
Timeline editor
A multitrack timeline with keyframes, markers and snapping, colour tools such as custom LUTs and a waveform scope, and audio tools like EQ, ducking and a loudness meter. Edits here are free on every plan, which matters because you can finish a cut without spending credits.
Branches and undo for AI edits
You can try an alternative cut without losing the one you like, using branches, version tags and history. You can also roll the timeline back to its state before an AI edit. That is a useful safety net when the agent misreads an instruction.
Captions and translation
Clips are transcribed, and captions can be generated or translated into another language. They stay in sync as you keep editing. Transcripts use credits, so long interviews cost more to caption than short clips.
Voices, voice clones and AI twins
Add AI voiceovers, including ElevenLabs models, clone your own voice or create an avatar of yourself. invideo's help centre says you may only clone voices you have the right to use, and you can't generate a real person's likeness without permission.
Stock media library
Paid plans include standard stock from Storyblocks, Shutterstock, Pexels and Pixabay, plus a monthly allowance of premium iStock clips: 45 on Basic, 150 on Pro and 180 on Ultra. Searching and previewing stock is free; the premium allowance doesn't roll over.
Export to pro editing software
Timelines can be exported to Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro, so a human editor can finish the job in familiar software. You can also export just the audio or a PNG still. Exporting and downloading never use credits.
Bring your own AI agent
Through invideo's MCP connection, assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT/Codex, Gemini or Cursor can drive the editor. Edits made by an outside agent are free; you only pay credits for generation, transcripts and paid stock.
Real-time team editing
Several people can work on one timeline at once with live cursors, and you can share a timeline for review. Pro includes 10 free guest seats and Ultra 20, each with 190 credits — handy for clients or freelancers who only need occasional access.

InVideo AI pricing explained
Credits pay for AI generation, not downloads. Prices are per seat.
InVideo charges per seat. Billed monthly, Basic is $9, Pro $30 and Ultra $80 a seat; billed yearly, Pro drops to $15 and Ultra to $40 a seat a month. Each seat gets a monthly credit allowance — 190 on Basic, 1,000 on Pro and 3,000 on Ultra — plus storage from 100 GB to 800 GB. Basic only gets the Lite version of Agent Two; Pro and Ultra unlock every agent and model.
A credit is invideo's unit for AI work: generating video, images and audio, transcripts, paid stock and Agent Two's own work. Models are priced differently, video is charged per second, and higher resolution costs more. As examples from the pricing page, a Nano Banana Pro image costs about 2.5 credits and five seconds of Seedance 2.5 at 1080p about 96. Timeline editing, exporting and downloading are free.
Plan credits reset every month and unused credits don't roll over. If you run out, you can buy extra credits without changing plan (they expire after a set period or when your plan ends) or upgrade, with the upgrade prorated. invideo says it can change credit costs at any time without notice. Under its terms, refunds are only considered within 24 hours of a purchase or renewal, and only if no credits or premium features were used; iOS purchases are refunded through Apple.

Commercial use, ownership and privacy
invideo's terms say you keep ownership of what you upload and own the outputs you create, subject to the terms, the law and third-party rights. Its help centre adds that you can use, change, share and sell generated media worldwide without royalties, and that media generated for your projects stays available after you cancel. Stock clips remain under their own licences, so you get no exclusive rights to them.
Paid stock shows an invideo mark while it's on your timeline, but exports render clean. You're responsible for not generating a real person's likeness or voice, or another company's logo or character, without the right to do so — and ad platforms may require you to label AI-made content.
invideo's homepage says it is SOC 2 and GDPR compliant and "ISO aligned". Its terms also say invideo may use your user data to train and fine-tune its AI unless a separate written agreement says otherwise; the only opt-out it describes is deleting that data or closing your account, which doesn't undo training already done. SOC 2, single sign-on and indemnification are listed as Enterprise features.
