Feature Release Veo Editor

New: Football Events🚀

AUTHOR: Veo Product Updates

The Veo Editor has a wide range of tools and features that are heavily used. For example, more than three hundred thousand clips are created by users like you every. single. month.

You have also (rightfully!) been asking for improvements. An Editor that is simpler. Smarter. More capable.

To make those kinds of improvements, we realized that we would first have to change some of the foundational elements of the Veo Editor. Elements like:

  • Veo automatically generating hundreds of thousands of clips of goal kicks, freekicks and corners that people don't use. This leads to increased video storage costs and a cluttered user interface.

  • Highlights being dual usage: for education and sharing and for managing stats and analytics features. Trying to be both-in-one resulted in a sub-optimal clip experience and a sub-optimal analytics experience.

  • Being unable to edit some AI analytics results, such as the shot map.

The first major change is now ready to share with you: Football Events. We will roll it out gradually over the next week, for new football recordings. We think it will open the door to many more improvements.

What are Events?

Football match events such as goals, shots (previously ‘shots on goal’), corners, free kicks, period starts/ends, penalties and goal kicks are detected by Veo AI, for more efficient video navigation.


Fewer clicks for critical data
You can quickly add missing goals or other critical events. You can also filter them by type, team, player, and period.

Better recording of the facts
A player can be assigned to an event, as the person who did it. (Coming soon: You can also say who got the assist.)

Less clutter in clips
Clips no longer affect your match stats and data - use Events for that. Use Clips to create shareable and teachable moments. Veo will automatically generate clips of shots and goals, to get you started. Veo will no longer automatically generate clips of other match events, but will still detect and display them in the Events menu.

Improved Veo Analytics

Analytics customers can now enjoy a fully editable shot map. Adding location data to events means you can now move shots around as you like! If you see a shot in the wrong position, drag it to the correct place. In addition, assigning player to events will help to populate the soon to be released Player Data feature in the Analytics Studio.
