Frequently asked questions
Is Submagic a manual-only editor?
No. The official product sources linked here describe AI-assisted tools. Choose by the workflow and controls you need rather than assuming only Cubix offers AI editing.
Which one is faster or produces better results?
That depends on the source footage, requested edit and corrections needed. No same-footage benchmark is reported here. Compare your recording and the final outputs before deciding.
Where can I check plans and export limits?
The pricing page lists current plans, AI credits, storage and export resolution. Choose the plan for the footage and output you need; a higher export resolution cannot recover missing source detail.
Start with your recording
Bring your footage into Cubix, choose the editing task and review the result before exporting.
