What is Type Studio?

Type Studio is an AI-powered text-based video and podcast editing tool developed by Streamlabs. It allows creators to edit audio and video content simply by editing the transcript text, rather than working with complex timelines and waveforms.

Type Studio is designed for content creators, podcasters, YouTubers, marketers, and educators who want to produce polished videos and podcasts quickly—without advanced editing skills.

Key Features of Type Studio

Text-Based Video & Audio Editing

Type Studio’s core innovation is edit-by-text functionality. Once your media is transcribed:

This is especially useful for long-form podcasts and talking-head videos.
