Inclusion rule. Video apps whose own pages describe AI features for short social videos. Order. Alphabetical by app name.
1What the grid shows
Automatic captions are the feature listed most often, by 19 of the 25 apps; most people watch short video muted. One app's pages say captions are left off the video on purpose, to be added at the platform. Posting to platforms is listed least, with twelve apps silent on it.
The four columns added in the second reading, reframing, voice, B-roll and cleanup, sort the apps in a different way from the first six. Clip makers reframe; generators speak and fill with stock; editors clean up.
A hollow cell means the pages read did not state the feature. Apps change plans often, and a feature missing from a pricing page may sit on a product page.
