Apple’s AI-infused Final Cut Pro 11 is now available

With its biggest update to Final Cut Pro (FCP) in years, Apple may be re-embracing the professional video creator crowd it has neglected since the launch of FCP X in 2011. The company finally unveiled its successor,

(FCP 11), an update that leans heavily on AI tools. At the same time, it introduced spatial video editing to produce content for the Vision Pro headset.

The key AI feature is Magnetic Mask, which lets you cut out people and other moving subjects, then stylize them or put them in another location altogether. “This powerful and precise automatic analysis provides additional flexibility to customize backgrounds and environments,” Apple wrote. “Editors can also combine Magnetic Mask with ****** correction and video effects, allowing them to precisely control and stylize each project.”

The other key new AI feature is Transcribe to Captions, which automatically analyzes interviews and other timeline audio, transcribes it and places the captions directly on the timeline — effectively automating the entire process. That feature uses an Apple-trained large language model (LLM) designed to transcribe spoken audio, the company said.

Final Cut Pro 11 also joins other pro editing apps like Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve in offering VR/AR video editing. “Spatial video editing” allows users to import and edit AR/VR video directly in the app, while adding effects, ****** correction and more. Footage can be captured from an iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 16 models, along with Canon’s R7 mirrorless camera paired with the new RF-S 7.8mm F/4 lens. Users can choose from different viewing modes to preview left- and right-eye angles, or bring their edit directly in to Apple Vision Pro to get a 3D preview.

and view the “Content and social-media partners” setting to do so.

Apple also unveiled Final Cut Pro for iPad 2.1, further optimizing it for Apple silicon. The app also offers enhancements to the “light and ******” feature that let you quickly improve the ******, contrast and overall look of your video. And finally, the company released a new version of Final Cut Camera, which includes the ability to ****** in compact but high-quality HEVC files with Apple Log, rather than using storage-gobbling ProRes.

As a professional tool, Final Cut Pro 11 is still missing features found in Resolve and Premiere Pro like text-based editing and certain advanced ****** correction tools. Still, the new version and features will no doubt be welcomed by FCP diehards. It’s now available to download for $299 for new users (following a free 90-day trial) and is free to existing Final Cut Pro owners.
