Mimic
Mimic (trymimic.app) is an AI video editor built for UGC. You pick a UGC style, either one of its built-in styles or any UGC video you import as a reference, then drop in your raw clip plus any product shots or screen recordings. Mimic transcribes what you say, trims pauses, ums and false starts, times captions to every word in the style's font, highlight and position, and adds the zooms, cards, pops and whooshes that style uses. You can then change captions, cuts, timing and sounds by tapping them, or tell the editor what to change in plain words. It runs in a phone's browser and on a laptop, and markets to UGC creators, brands and agencies.
Best for: UGC creators, brands and agencies who want a raw clip turned into a styled UGC video that copies the look of a reference ad, with word-timed captions, zooms, sound effects and product demos added.
- Cuts dead air automatically: pauses, ums and false starts are trimmed
- Captions timed to every word, in the chosen style's font, highlight and position
- Import any UGC video as a style reference and match its caption look, pacing, cuts and effects
- Twelve named built-in styles, including Split screen, Bold keywords, App demo, POV hook and Headline hook
- Places product shots or screen recordings you drop in alongside your clip
- Adds punch-in zooms on key lines plus pops and whooshes where the style uses them

How ClipEasy and Mimic handle a raw talking-to-camera take
The whole raw take, edited for you
ClipEasy cuts pauses and filler, removes retakes and false starts, adds captions, cleans up the audio, blends it across each cut and tightens the opening. Mimic's site names pauses, ums, false starts and captions.
Up to 10 product videos at once
Add one raw take per product and ClipEasy edits up to 10 different videos at once while you do something else, so a batch of product videos gets cut in one go.
A teleprompter that follows your voice
Film in ClipEasy with a script that waits when you pause, keeps up if you skip a line and stops the take three seconds after your last line. The cut then keeps the take where you got each line right.
No style to pick before every edit
ClipEasy edits the take as you filmed it. Every Mimic edit starts from a built-in style or an imported reference video, a choice you make for each video in a day of many takes.
Built as an app for iOS and Android
ClipEasy is coming soon as an app on both iPhone and Android. Mimic runs in a phone's browser, which you add to your Home Screen to use like an app, and on a laptop.
Change anything yourself afterwards
After ClipEasy edits, you adjust anything in a few taps. Mimic also lets you tap captions, cuts, timing and sounds, or type a request in plain words.
