Diffusion Studio is Canva for video editing, we allow anyone to import video footage they have taken and our AI will generate a publish-ready video. We have achieved this only now because we replace heavyweight desktop apps with the newly released WebCodecs and WebGPU web APIs, that enable hardware-accelerated encoding in the Browser.

The Founders

Konstantin’s last job was developing signal-processing devices for a large German manufacturer. As soon as WebGPU was released, Konstantin started to work on building applications using that technology. This led him to start Diffusion Studio.

Matthias previously built a startup that used AI-driven video processing to detect and track traffic participants on hardware-constrained devices. Through that, Matthias gathered valuable experience in hyper-optimizing video processing AI to run on everyday devices in real time.

The Problem

Creating fully polished and publishable video content is a time-intensive task, with each minute of a finished video requiring about an hour of tedious editing. This often means making several precise, manual adjustments. Some content creators try to solve this by outsourcing editing to low-wage countries but face issues with language barriers, endless back and forth, and reduced quality of the finished videos.

There’s a need for a simple video editing tool with a set of robust, focused features that enable the production of high-quality videos.

The Solution

Diffusion Studio fills that need by automating large parts of the editing process. The auto edit feature automatically eliminates filler words, pauses, repetitive starts, and redundant explanations. Further editing the auto-edit draft is also easy with Diffusion Studio’s simple UI, which allows users to edit the video directly using either the transcript or the timeline. Additionally, Diffusion Studio runs entirely in the user's browser on the user’s hardware, which means there are no uploads or downloads to wait on once the video has been edited.
