Anjin review
A deep production editor for teams that need clip provenance and automation.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Anjin is a web-based AI video editor for podcasters and production teams working from long-form recordings. It transcribes uploaded footage, identifies moments from a written brief, creates a reviewable cut plan, and renders portrait, square, or widescreen clips. Speaker diarisation, named speakers, face-aware reframing, captions, subtitle sidecars, brand kits, multi-camera editing, and source timecodes make it suited to teams that need a documented route from recording to short-form output.
Pricing is aimed at professional production rather than casual experimentation. Essentials costs £99 per month or £990 per year, with 240 source minutes a month, 60 export minutes, 50 GB of active storage, AI, multiple cameras, and one editor. Studio costs £499 per month or £4,990 per year and raises capacity to 1,200 source minutes, 240 export minutes, 200 GB of storage, and unlimited editors. Agency costs £999 per month or £9,990 per year, with 2,400 source minutes, 600 export minutes, 400 GB of storage, and unlimited editors. Enterprise uses individually agreed capacity, accounts, licences, and annual terms. Annual amounts are paid upfront, and prices exclude VAT.
The standout strength is the production workflow: transcript-grounded selection is paired with cut plans, source timecodes, speaker identification, camera-aware editing, aspect-specific reframing, and caption exports in SRT, VTT, and ASS formats. The REST API, MCP server, and webhooks extend that workflow to developers and AI agents, while provenance and edit-decision outputs support review. The trade-off is focus: Anjin is an editing and production system, not a publishing hub, and its starting price makes it a poor fit for occasional creators or teams seeking a low-cost clip maker. Choose it when traceability, automation, and multi-editor production matter more than price or distribution features.
