What's New
Increased number of clips generated per request - Now Content Lab creates up to 10 clips per generation. This gives users a broader selection and improves the chances of surfacing clips that truly match their intent. Number of clips created depends on certain factors, including preciseness of topic or purpose (for example, there may not be 10 clips that fit the preset or custom prompt entered) and length of requested clip compared to source video (for example, if the source video is 20 minutes long and 5-minute clips are requested, there may not be enough content for 10 clips).

Improvement to the clips algorithm - We’ve improved the clips algorithm to boost both quality and accuracy, so the output is more relevant and polished.
Create with AI button now available on entries list in KMC - The Create with AI button is now available directly from the Entries list in KMC, making it faster and easier to launch Content Lab.
