On September 20, ByteDance’s Cutting（JianYing）rolled out a major update that seamlessly integrates AI video generationand and AI editingThis time, the previous workflow break—“generate with AI, then download and export, then import into editing software for post-processing”—has been fully bridged; the most frustrating “tool-switching back and forth” segment for video creators is now eliminated.
CuttingHub: All-in-one AI video creation
CuttingHubis the core of this update, with its entry point located on theCuttinghomepage. It consolidates the entire AI video creation workflow onto a single canvas—you no longer need to shuttle assets across multiple tools:
- Image generation → Scriptwriting → Storyboarding → Final video: First generate a product image, then let AI write a storyboard script; connect the image and script, and characters, props, and scenes are automatically filled in; finally, generate multiple video clips with one click and automatically stitch them into a final video.
- One-click to editingClick once on the generated video to jump directly toCuttingthe multi-track editing interface—no export or import required.
In other words, creating an AI advertisement previously involved four steps: “generate → download → import into editor → assemble.” Now, withinCuttingHub, the entire workflow stays within a single application.
CuttingAssistant: Edit videos by typing

AI-powered editing capabilities explode
- AI Smart ExtensionDrag a segment to extend the video—supports “continue generation” or extension via specified methods.
- Local EditingDissatisfied with a local element in a video clip? Modify it directly in the editing interface—no need to return to the generation canvas.
- Audio-Visual AdjustmentUltra-HD quality, AI frame interpolation, color grading, AI object removal, and voice separation—essentially “Photoshop for AI video.”
- Shoot-and-Edit(Mobile): Upload a few casual photos plus one sentence—generate a lifestyle vlog in one to two minutes.
Summarize
CuttingThis update isn’t merely about “adding a few more AI features”—it consolidates fragmented creative workflows across stages into a unified system. It’s evolving from a tool that “automatically edits videos” into a full-cycle AI Video Workbench— For beginners: “Have an idea? Start right away.” For experienced users: “Let agents handle repetitive tasks, and free up your time for rhythm and creativity.” To discover more useful AI tools, visit AI Dash.
