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.
