The AI Upgrade — Kapwing Adds Three New AI Models

Kapwing has upgraded its AI Studio with multiple leading AI models, giving creators faster, easier ways to produce on-trend content.

Instantly generating a fully edited video with subtitles, b-roll, and voice-over has long been one of Kapwing’s standout features.

But with short, viral AI clips taking over social media, we knew it was time to evolve our studio so creators could keep pace with the latest AI trends.

“I’ve been covering trending content for over a decade, first as a journalist and now in marketing,” said Liam Curtis, Kapwing’s Head of Content. “Right now, the big trend is jaw-dropping realism — whether that’s animating your pet or snapping a selfie with a celebrity."

"The fact that you can now replicate these trends in Kapwing, and edit the clips afterwards... it's a real game-changer. But replicating AI trends is just the start, and I can’t wait for what’s coming to the AI Studio on November 11."

Generate Viral AI Video Clips — In Seconds

Now you can create human-realistic 3-12 second video clips inside the studio using both text-to-image and image-to-video technology, powered by the latest AI models from Bytedance and Minimax.

You'll see Minimax Hailuo, Lightricks, and Seedream available alongside existing AI models like Kapwing, Pika.

Whether it's AI-generated animals, babies, or cartoon characters, Kapwing's new partners give creators direct access to the latest viral trends.

Stay Tuned for November 11th

The AI revolution has only started.

The next release on November 18th adds AI audio capabilities alongside video and image improvements — all rolled into a chatbot that can handle all of your editing demands while preserving branding.

"This is our most exciting product launch of 2025,” said Julia Enthoven, Kapwing CEO. 

"We’re building the fastest, simplest way to generate and edit with AI — using the latest models for quality and trend participation.”

"I can't give away too much right now, but the likes of Google's Nano Banana, Sora AI, and VEO 3 will all be part of the project."

Julia says that the feature is designed for creators who want to generate and edit with speed and simplicity, but need all of the latest AI models available to them for unrivaled quality and trend participation.
