Meta is updating its video-editing app Edits with two new features: an AI assistant integrated into the product and a forthcoming desktop version. Multiple outlets report that Meta previewed the changes at an invite-only creator event in Los Angeles. The AI assistant is currently being tested with attendees at the event, indicating it is not yet broadly available. The desktop version is described as “coming soon,” with no specific release date provided in the available coverage. Meta positions Edits as a rival to ByteDance’s CapCut and is also working to keep creators engaged on Instagram amid ongoing competition with TikTok and YouTube for creator attention. The reporting also emphasizes that the company is rolling out the assistant and desktop capabilities as part of Edits’ continued expansion, rather than as a separate standalone tool. Overall, the sources agree on the timing of the previews, the testing status of the AI assistant, and the direction of the rollout toward desktop support.
