Turn a Twitch VOD into a YouTube video.
Give Aqua your VOD. Let the engine take care of the edit, or get involved and make it your own. Here’s how both workflows work.
Option A
Let Aqua handle everything.
From VOD link to finished video.
You’ve already spent hours making the stream. Aqua turns that recording into a YouTube video, handling the story, the cut, and the effects for you.
You can include an optional editing brief with your VOD. Tell Aqua what to focus on, which moments to keep or cut, and what types of effects to add, such as zooms, captions, or sound effects. Aqua uses that direction as it builds your edit.

Paste your Twitch VOD link
Set a target length for the finished video, or let Aqua work out how much time the story needs. You don’t need to map out every moment before you start.
-
Let Aqua find the story
The engine finds a narrative within your stream and builds a rough cut around it. It edits with YouTube in mind: a reason to click, enough context to follow along, and a payoff that makes viewers want to keep watching.
-
Bring the best moments to life
Aqua adds zooms, captions, and sound effects to highlight the funny, surprising, and engaging moments in the cut. The result is a video that gives people who missed the stream a way to discover you.
Option B
Get your hands dirty with Aqua.
Your taste. Aqua’s editing engine.
Start with an optional editing brief to give Aqua your direction before the first cut. Describe what the engine should focus on, what to keep or cut, and the types of effects you’d like it to add.
The first edit is a starting point. If something doesn’t feel right, tell Aqua what you want to change. Bring back a section of the VOD, adjust an effect, or take the whole story in a different direction.
You can keep giving feedback until you’re happy with the result. Small details and big creative decisions are both part of the process.
Tell Aqua what you’re thinking
Keep the fight at 02:14:30. The reaction afterward needs to be in the video.
Lose the zoom here and add a sound effect when I miss the jump.
Make the comeback the main story, and spend less time on the opening rounds.
A timestamp helps Aqua find the moment you mean. A quick explanation of what you like, or what feels off, helps shape the next version around your style.
Finish in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve
Want to make the final touches yourself? Aqua supports XML exports for Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, so you can continue editing in the tools you already use.
Let Aqua build the cut and add the effects, then take over for the details that make a video feel like yours. You keep creative control without spending hours assembling the edit from scratch.

- DaVinci Resolve

Watch the Pokémon Nuzlocke video, then compare it with the original VOD. The finished video was generated by the Aqua engine, with no human edits afterward.
