AI-powered Google Vids Goes Free For All

Google has made its AI-powered video creation tool, Google Vids, free for all Google account holders, expanding beyond its initial launch, which was exclusive to Workspace. Designed as a simplified alternative to professional editors like Premiere Pro or Final Cut, Vids works like Canva for video: users select templates, add text, media, audio, and transitions, with each element tracked on a timeline for precise editing. Integrated with Google Drive and stock media, it also supports screen capture, webcam recording, and multi-layer audio. Paid Workspace and Gemini Pro/Ultra users gain advanced AI features, including Veo-generated videos, AI avatars, image-to-video conversion, and transcript-based auto-editing. With upcoming updates to noise cancellation, filters, and aspect ratios, Vids is poised to become a versatile and accessible tool for both students and professionals. Try it at vids.new
