Frequently asked questions

Which video editor is best for adding B-roll?

Jupitrr is built for it. Most editors give you a stock library and a timeline, so you still search, drag, and time every clip yourself. Jupitrr reads your transcript and places relevant B-roll automatically on upload, then lets you swap any clip in one click.

What is the fastest way to add B-roll to a video?

Upload the video to Jupitrr and the B-roll is already placed when the editor opens. There is no blank timeline to fill and no searching a stock library clip by clip. Reviewing and swapping the few you disagree with usually takes a couple of minutes.

Is the B-roll copyright-free and safe for commercial use?

Not automatically. Getty Images and iStock footage is licensed stock included on paid plans, Pexels footage comes under the Pexels License on every plan, and web images come from the open web, so their rights vary by image. Each source has its own licence terms, and the Jupitrr terms ask you to confirm usage rights for your use case, especially for paid ads or products you sell. Our guide to royalty-free vs copyright-free explains what each licence allows.

Can I use my own footage as B-roll?

Yes. Upload your own clips, product shots, or screen recordings and use them alongside the AI-selected footage. Many coaches mix their own session clips with stock so the video still looks like their business.

How does Jupitrr choose which B-roll to use?

Jupitrr transcribes your video, then matches footage to the meaning of each line rather than to isolated keywords. Saying "most people quit in week three" gets a clip about giving up, not a clip of the number three.

How is the B-roll displayed on screen?

Each clip gets a display style rather than a hard cut away from you. Split screen keeps you and the footage side by side, top and bottom fade blend the clip into the frame, overlay floats it over your video, card frames it, and full bleed fills the screen. Jupitrr picks one per clip and you can change it in a click.

Where does the B-roll come from?

Three sources, all searchable in the editor. Getty Images and iStock for licensed stock video and stills, Google Images for real product shots, charts, and reference images, and GIFs for lighter moments. You can also upload your own footage and mix it with the AI picks.

Do the B-roll clips animate in?

Yes. Every clip animates in rather than appearing flat, with slide, zoom, and fade options depending on the display style, and a sound effect on the cut. Both are applied automatically and can be changed or turned off per clip.

Can I change the B-roll style across a whole video?

Yes. Presets set the overall vibe, cinematic, corporate, energetic, and apply it to every clip at once. Change the preset and the whole video re-styles without you touching individual clips.

Do I need video editing experience to use it?

No. There is no blank timeline to start: Jupitrr brings you the first cut, and no editing experience is required. You upload, review what the AI placed, click, drag, or trim any B-roll on the timeline, swap anything you dislike, and export.

Is there a free AI B-roll generator?

Jupitrr has no free plan; you can try a sample video free to see how the B-roll matching works. Plans start at $15/mo billed annually with a 7-day money-back guarantee. Kapwing has a free plan that runs on a small monthly allowance of AI credits. OpusClip has a free plan, but its B-roll starts on paid plans.

Can AI generate B-roll from my script?

It depends on the kind of tool. Matching tools such as Jupitrr read the transcript of the video you recorded and place existing stock footage, web images, and GIFs that fit each line. Generative tools such as Descript, or Kapwing when no stock fits, create new clips from a text prompt. Jupitrr matches footage; it does not generate new scenes from a prompt.
