For Hands-On Creators
AI does the first cut —
you stay in control
AI clippers are great until the clip is wrong and you're stuck with it. Nova hands you the controls after the cut: choose your own start and end times, fix any caption the AI misheard, shrink or move the captions, turn them off entirely, or rewrite the on-screen hook — then re-render in a click. The speed of automation without losing the final say.

Choose your own clip times
Don't agree with where the AI cut? Set the exact start and end yourself and Nova builds the clip from your window — manual control as an addition to AI detection, not instead of it.
Fix and restyle the captions
Correct a misheard word, shrink oversized captions, drop them lower, change the style or color, or remove them completely. You see every change previewed live on the clip before you commit a single re-render.
Rewrite the on-screen text
The bold hook banner is yours to write. Swap the AI's line for your own, or clear it — your words, your framing, burned onto the clip.

Questions? Answers.
Can I edit an AI clip after it's generated?
Yes. Nova's side editor lets you change the captions (text, size, position, style, color, or off entirely), rewrite the on-screen hook, and re-render the clip in place from the cached source — no re-upload, no re-transcribe. Most AI clippers give you a flat MP4 you can't touch.
Can I pick the clip start and end times myself?
Yes — alongside AI moment detection you can cut a clip at exact times you choose. Nova pulls the captions for that window from the transcript and renders it like any other clip.
Can I make the captions smaller or turn them off?
Both. Caption size (small/medium/large) and vertical position are adjustable per clip, and you can render with no burned captions at all for a clean clip. These controls are free — branding them with custom colors and fonts is Pro.
Do I have to re-render to see my edits?
You preview caption text, size, position, style, and color live on the player first, then bake the change in with a single re-render — instead of rendering blind and hoping like other tools.
