# Welcome to Ponder Docs

> Ponder is an AI video editor you direct. Tell it what you want, and it edits your footage to match. Start with the video below to see it in action.

When you're happy with the edit, you can render it, send someone a link, or open the whole thing in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or CapCut and keep going there.

## Where Ponder fits in your workflow

You can let Ponder take the edit all the way, color, titles and captions included. Or use it like an assistant editor: have it organize and sync your footage, build stringouts and a rough cut, then send it all to your editing app and take over from there.

[See how that works](/docs/start-here/what-ponder-is)
