What it does

Record your screen, camera, and mic, then turn rough footage into polished videos with Auto Edit, transcript editing, captions, B-roll, motion, music, and 4K export. Edit hands-on or let MCP-compatible AI agents prepare reviewable changes.

One click turns raw footage into a finished edit on your Mac. Now connect AI agents through LazyReel MCP Preview, with review and undo.

Edit video as fast as you can read. One click turns any footage - a screen recording, a phone clip, a talking head - into a finished edit with captions, cuts, B-Roll and music. All on your Mac. Export 4K, no watermark, no cloud round-trips. Free forever, no credit card required. LazyReel is a macOS-native AI video editor built for short-form creators. Drop in raw footage and it generates animated captions in 13+ styles, drops in matching B-Roll from a 45+ template library, composes a punchy trailer or teaser, and lays kinetic text over every beat. Color grading uses 11 cinematic presets, and the Forge AI builder turns a single prompt into a full video draft. Everything renders locally with…from lazyreel.app

Creating professional videos still takes days or weeks per piece. Current AI video tools help, but they still make you juggle everything – you write scripts, choose visuals, pick music, make hundreds of micro-decisions. It's faster than agencies but nowhere near fast enough for scale. Our Background We started as an AI avatar company in 2023 and were the first startup to automate custom avatar…
