B-Roll
B-Roll is supplementary video footage that enhances the main content, used to add visual interest and context to clips.
In short-form video, B-Roll can dramatically increase engagement by adding visual variety to talking-head or podcast content. AI-generated B-Roll uses contextual analysis to suggest or generate relevant visual overlays.
AutoClip's B-Roll AI Enhancement (available on Pro and Scale plans) automatically adds contextually relevant visual elements to clips, making them more engaging without manual editing.
