Video Editing
The video editing landscape shows clear stratification: legacy non-linear editors maintain presence through established workflows (Premiere Elements at 65% shortlist rate, Media Composer at 34%), while newer platforms gain traction by solving collaboration pain points (Frame.io at 36%) and introducing AI-driven editing paradigms (Descript at 35%). Canva's 37% shortlist rate signals commoditization pressure as general-purpose design tools absorb basic video editing. With 0% prompt coverage despite 34 consensus brands, the category reflects mature buyer awareness where brand recognition drives consideration more than feature discovery.
