Conclusion

NOVA A.I is a newer software company and seeing their roadmap it looks like many new features are in the process of being added sooner or later. This could potentially become a very powerful software within the field of video editing software. 

We like the fact that there’s no need to download any heavy software, and that it can be used by everyone regardless of previous experience because it’s offering straightforward basic video editing tools. 

This means it’s also a good option for beginners. And with their short and topic-specific YouTube tutorial videos it doesn’t take long to understand how to use different parts of the platform that might not be clear to a beginner right away. We hope this will keep up if they start to advance the software further!

The subtitle feature is super cool and really useful! And if you are looking for an all-in-one software that can create automatic subtitles as well as translate them NOVA A.I. is definitely a good choice.
