Vids by Google: A New Kind of Creativity in the Cloud

Google’s best products create a sense of connection, and Vids embodies that fully. Google Drive serves as your media library, Docs becomes your script, and Slides offers a storyboard layout. AI suggestions streamline the process, while Meet integration allows team discussions directly in the editor, using familiar sharing permissions. You can prompt Vids to draft videos, create narrative structures, suggest camera angles, auto-trim silence, align visuals to voiceovers, generate stock scenes, and even rewrite narration. It feels humble, providing a foundation for your creativity. For individuals dealing with anxiety or cognitive load, Vids simplifies video creation, eliminating complexity. For teams, it provides a collaborative space that welcomes contributions from all editing experiences. For creators, it’s a fast way to prototype and produce polished videos.
