Creation Studio
The fast, uncomplicated editor for social teams.
Creation Studio is Slate’s video and image editor for social media teams, in the browser and in the Slate mobile app (iOS and Android). Cut video, design graphics, caption, reframe, and export for every platform, with your brand loaded, AI tools for the tedious parts built in, and Rio ready to make the first cut.
Inside your brand systemStart for free
Your brand, already loaded.
Open a project and your fonts, colors, text presets, overlays, safe zones, and licensed music are already there. Locked template layers stay locked; the parts that change post to post stay open.
Anyone on the team makes something on-brand without opening a design tool or waiting on a designer.
Rio, built in
Ask for the edit. Rio makes it.
Describe what you want and Rio cuts it from your footage, on your timeline, in your brand. Find the moments, cut to length, caption in your style, reframe for vertical.
A first cut you finish, not a file you fix. It doesn’t generate video. It edits yours.
Video and image, one editorRequest a demo
Every format social needs, in one place.
Vertical video for Reels and TikTok. A carousel for the feed. A game-day graphic, a quote card, a Story, a YouTube thumbnail. Video on a timeline, stills on a canvas, both in the same project with the same brand kit.
Export sized for every platform, from the browser or the Slate mobile app.
Features
Carousels, image editing, and templates
Static posts, carousels, and game-day graphics on a canvas, built from the PSD templates your designers already make. Swap the photo, the name, and the score; the brand stays locked. Same workspace as video, on web and mobile.
Auto captions, translations, and SRTs
AI auto-captions in your brand’s caption style, translated into any market’s language in a click, with SRT files you can download and edit alongside the video.
AI cleanup: reframe, object removal, audio.
Remove a background from a photo or a video. Erase a logo or an object. Strip background noise from the audio. One click each, inside the project, no separate app.
A mobile app pressure tested by the world's biggest events
From the Super Bowl to the Oscars to Coachella, the biggest brands in the world use the Slate app at their biggest tentpole events to crush their real-time coverage.
Get feedback in the same place you edit
Leave comments on the exact frame, set the status, external sharelinks, and hand off a draft without the working file ever leaving Slate.

This tool is incredible. This is actually incredible.
Julia Stern
Social Media Lead at Amazon
We did one season without Slate and it changed our lives when we got it.
Daniel Venn
Social Media Manager at St. Louis Cardinals
We couldn’t have done everything we’ve done without Slate. Our social engagement is up across the board, and more of our team can now contribute creatively.
Slate helps us move fast. When the Knicks won the NBA Championship, I captured their return to New York and edited it in Slate. FOS was first to post, and that speed made all the difference.
Christine Thuruthiyil
Director, Social at Front Office Sports
Slate is a tool that allows us to move very quickly and on brand when it comes to social creation.

More about Creation Studio
What is Creation Studio?
Creation Studio is Slate’s video and image editor for social media teams, available in the browser and in the Slate iOS app. It covers cutting video, designing graphics, captioning, reframing, and exporting for every platform, with your brand’s fonts, colors, templates, and music already loaded.Who is Creation Studio for?
Social media managers and the people around them: heads of social, content coordinators, designers who build the system, and the interns, reporters, and field staff who create inside it. Teams at brands, sports and entertainment organizations, media companies, agencies, and universities who publish daily and can’t route every post through a design queue.Do I need to know how to edit video?
No. Creation Studio is built for the whole social team, not just the editor. Templates, brand presets, and one-tap captions mean a non-designer can produce something on-brand on their first try, and experienced editors get a real timeline with layers, transitions, filters, and audio controls.Can I edit both video and images?
Yes. Video projects open on a timeline; image projects open on a canvas. Both pull from the same brand kit, templates, and media library, and both export from the same place.Does Creation Studio work on mobile?
Yes. The Slate mobile app (iOS and Android) gives your team the same brand kit, templates, and captions on the phone, so content can be made from the sideline, the event floor, or the office.How does it keep content on brand?
Your Brand Hub is loaded into every project: approved fonts, colors, logos, safe zones, templates, and a licensed music library. Locked elements stay locked, so speed never costs you consistency.How is Creation Studio different from CapCut or Canva?
CapCut and Canva are consumer tools your team uses one person at a time, with no brand controls and no shared workspace. Creation Studio is built for teams: brand guardrails enforced in every project, shared projects with timestamped feedback, a licensed music library cleared for brand use, and a Media Hub everyone pulls from.Is there AI in Creation Studio?
Yes, two kinds. Utility AI like auto-captions, translation, audio denoise, and background removal is built into the editor. And Rio, Slate’s editing assistant, can make a first cut from your footage when you describe what you want. It edits your footage; it never generates fake footage.What can I export?
MP4 video and PNG images, sized for every platform, and a direct push to Sprout Social for scheduling. Export from the browser or from the mobile app.
There's even more to Slate
Shared projects, external review links, frame-level comments, statuses, and approvals, all where the content gets made.
Fonts, colors, templates, presets, and licensed audio in one place, applied automatically in every project.
Media Hub
NewA shared media library, connected to your sources, one click from every project.
Auto-captions styled by your brand presets, translated for every market, exported with the video or as SRT.
