What is Editly?
Editly is an open-source video editing API and automation framework designed for developers building video generation pipelines, content automation systems, and programmatic video creation workflows.
It provides a declarative specification for video compositions sequences of clips, transitions, text overlays, audio tracks that can be assembled and rendered programmatically without manual editing tools.
The API-first design makes Editly suitable for building video generation into software applications platforms that automatically create recaps, summaries, social clips, or personalized video messages at scale. Developers define video specifications in JSON and Editly handles the rendering, producing output files that can be stored, distributed, or further processed.
Editly is used by product teams building video features into SaaS applications, content automation companies processing large volumes of source material, and technical creators who want to automate repetitive video editing workflows. Its open-source nature allows customization and self-hosting for applications where output control or data privacy prevents use of commercial cloud video services.
