Hi HN - I am building Twick, a React video editor SDK for teams that want to ship video workflows inside their product. Core features: - Drag and drop video editor UI with timeline + canvas (`@twick/studio`) - Auto Caption flow for generating timed captions from video - Asset management for both user uploads and public assets - Modular packages if you want headless/custom UI (`@twick/timeline`, `@twick/canvas`, `@twick/live-player`) - MP4 export in browser (`@twick/browser-render`) or server-side (`@twick/render-server`) Live demo: https://development.d1vtsw7m0lx01h.amplifyapp.com Repo: https://github.com/ncounterspecialist/twick I would love feedback focused on adoption and product direction: 1) Which SaaS categories should I target first with this stack? 2) For those categories, which features are mandatory before production adoption? 3

I have been building Twick, a React video editor library & SDK for building custom video applications. It includes: - AI caption generation (Google Speech-to-Text) - React timeline editor - Canvas-based editing tools - Client-side rendering - Serverless MP4 export - TypeScript SDK The goal is to help developers ship video SaaS and automation tools without rebuilding the entire editor stack. Would love your feedback. Try it: https://development.d1vtsw7m0lx01h.amplifyapp.com/ GitHub: https://github.com/ncounterspecialist/twick

I am working on Twick Studio, an intuitive visual editor for video built on top of the Twick SDK, react toolkit for creating custom video editing experiences. Key capabilities include: - Multi-track, drag-and-drop timelines - Live preview of edits - Canvas editing with drag, resize, and rotate - Undo/redo and controls for text, video, audio, and images - Media utilities for metadata and thumbnail generation Recently added new cloud functions in the Twick SDK to auto-generate captions and export videos as MP4.

Alongside Twick SDK, we have now launched Twick Studio - our new UI for visual video editing. Try it now: https://twick-studio.vercel.app/ Key features: - Multi-track timeline with drag & drop - Live video preview & customizable dimensions - React-based canvas for easy drag, resize, rotate - Undo/redo, element controls (text, video, audio, image) - Media utils for metadata, thumbnails, and more Check out the docs for full details: https://ncounterspecialist.github.io/twick/docs/intro Explore the full source-available toolkit on GitHub: https://github.com/ncounterspecialist/twick If you find Twick useful, please give the repo a to support ongoing development. We would love to hear your feedback and suggestions for new features.

We just launched Twick SDK, an open-source toolkit to help developers build pro-grade video editing tools in React. Features: timeline editor, animations, effects, rich elements (video, audio, text, shapes), and WYSIWYG canvas editing. Docs: https://ncounterspecialist.github.io/twick/docs/intro Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EizgeoxwJsk Would love to hear your feedback & feature ideas! If you find it useful, a star on GitHub would mean a lot

We are seeing a wave of AI video startups — tools that generate product videos, reels, explainers, and more using generative models. But many of them hit a wall. Why? Because after the AI generates content, users want to fine-tune it — but the tools lack the video editing capabilities. We’ve been working on a React-based video editing SDK - Twick that solves this. It lets you: - Auto-generate styled captions - Add effects (fade, zoom, typewriter, etc.) - Build timelines and live-edit canvases - Export videos to the cloud via Lambda. All of this can be easily embedded into your app. If you're interested in trying it out or want to collaborate, feel free to reach out. I'm also planning to open-source it soon for the wider dev community.

I’m building a React-based video editing SDK for apps that generate or enhance video content — especially AI-generated ones like explainers, reels, and product showcases. This SDK solves that by embedding a full editing layer in your frontend. What’s included: Timeline editor (trim, split, sync media) Live canvas editing Styled, AI-generated captions Animations & effects Media utils (resize, extract, compress) AWS Lambda export & S3 support Ideal for AI video platforms, social automation tools, and product video builders. Would love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or feature suggestions.
