EditPilot and Interactive Edit on CapCut

By Steven Van ·

CapCut Desktop's EditPilot and Interactive Edit let creators select footage in the preview and extend shots up to 30 seconds.

CapCut Desktop is adding EditPilot, an AI editing assistant, alongside a new Interactive Edit mode.

  • Interactive Edit lets you select footage directly in the preview window and prompt changes to it, rather than hunting through the timeline.
  • AI Extend can lengthen a shot by up to 30 seconds.

The features were announced on 10 September 2026.
