VEED is an online video editor that many teams use to cut real footage, add subtitles and translate videos. Filmagic does one job: launch videos for apps, SaaS and AI products, made from your product link. Both run in the browser, but they solve different problems.
How each one works
VEED is a browser-based editor. You upload or record footage, trim it on a timeline, add auto subtitles, translate them and use AI tools to clean up audio or generate content. Teams can share and review projects. The free plan's exports carry a watermark, and paid plans are billed per editor.
Filmagic starts from your product link. It reads your site for your name, tagline, colours, fonts, logo and screens, writes the scenes and cuts the film to music. You edit any line, then export 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1 from one edit, rendered in your browser.

When VEED is the better choice
- You are editing real footage: a founder video, an interview, a webinar or a screen recording.
- You need accurate subtitles, or the same video translated into other languages.
- Several people need to review and comment on the same edit.
When Filmagic is the better choice
- You don't have footage yet and want a launch video built from your site.
- You need a launch trailer for Product Hunt or a feature announcement for X and LinkedIn.
- You want your brand colours, fonts and logo applied automatically.
- You want one edit to export 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1 without re-cutting.
Use them together
Use Filmagic for the launch trailer, and VEED for the founder video or demo recording that follows. If you only need captions on a clip, our free add subtitles to video tool does it in your browser.
