Open the AI Editor
Open the AI Editor on a computer, pick a video size on the welcome screen, and learn where every panel of the editor screen is.
#What it is
The AI Editor is a video editor that runs in your browser, inside Infinall. You pick a size for your video on a welcome screen, then edit on a timeline with a media panel, a preview, an inspector and an AI chat.
#Who can use it
Everyone. The app does not check your plan to open the editor, so Free and Pro see the same screens. On a team, creating or changing a project needs the Editor role or higher. A Viewer can look but not save changes.
The editor needs a computer. It will not open on a phone or a tablet. See the next sections for the exact rules.
#Cost
Free, no credits. Opening the editor, choosing a size, and starting a project never use credits. Some AI tools inside the editor are different. See AI tools.
#Where to find it
Click AI Editor in the left menu. It sits between Distribution and Brand Brain.
You can also open a saved project directly from the Projects page: projects with the mode Editor open in the AI Editor.
#Buttons and controls
This is the welcome screen. It always comes first.

#The editor screen
When a project opens you see the editor screen.

| 3 | Canvas shape: (for example 16:9) | Top bar, centre. Changes the shape of the video. Hidden on narrow screens. | Both |

| 12 | Editor sections | The rail, the narrow strip at the far right. It picks what the panel next to it shows. | Both |
| 13 | Timeline | The timeline, the wide band along the bottom, under everything except the rail. | Both |
The AI chat is not a separate column. It is the AI Editor section on the rail, and it opens in the same panel as Media.
You can drag the dividers between the inspector, the preview, the panel and the timeline to change their sizes.

Smaller screens. If the editor area is 1,100 pixels wide or less, the editor switches to a compact layout. It shows the preview on top and one panel below it. A strip at the bottom, named Editor workspace, switches the panel between Timeline, Media, Edit and AI. The Edit tab is the inspector.
First visit tour. The first time you open a project in a browser, a short tour points at the media panel, timeline, player and inspector. Use Next and Back, or Skip Tour. The last step button reads Get Started.
#Limits
- The editor needs a screen at least 1,024 pixels wide.
- The editor does not open on a device that only has a touch screen, or on a phone or tablet. A laptop with a touch screen and a trackpad or mouse is fine.
- The compact layout starts when the editor area is 1,100 pixels wide or less. The editor area is the part next to the left menu, so it is narrower than your browser window.
- Custom size accepts a width and height from 16 to 7,680 pixels and a frame rate from 1 to 120 frames per second.
#When something goes wrong
| Message in the app | What it means | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| The AI Editor works on a computer | Your device looks like a phone or a tablet, or your window is narrower than the minimum width. The page also shows Open infinall.ai on a laptop or desktop to edit videos. Your projects are saved and will be waiting there. | Open Infinall on a laptop or desktop and make the browser window wider. Click Back to Home to leave. |
| The editor couldn't start | The editor failed to load. | Click Try again. |

#Questions
#Can I use the AI Editor on my phone or tablet?
No. The editor shows The AI Editor works on a computer on phones and tablets, and the editor code is not loaded there. Your projects are saved to your account, so they wait for you on a computer.
#Why does the editor look cramped on a small laptop?
The editor area sits next to the left menu, so it is narrower than your window. When it is 1,100 pixels wide or less, you get the compact layout with the Timeline, Media, Edit and AI tabs. Make the window wider to get the full layout.
#Do I need Pro?
No. The app does not check your plan to open the editor or to start a project.
#Can I change the size after I pick a card?
Yes. Use Canvas shape in the top bar to switch between 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:5, 4:3 and 21:9.
#Where is the AI chat?
On the rail, choose AI Editor. The chat opens in the panel next to the preview.
#Why does the welcome screen show every time?
When you open AI Editor from the left menu, the size screen always comes first. If you have unfinished work, Continue editing at the top reopens it in one click. A link to a saved project, such as one from the Projects page, opens that project directly.
