As a founder, I know exactly what it means to wear every hat in your business. You're the CEO, the marketer, the salesperson—and increasingly, the video editor. Small businesses everywhere need video to grow, but who has time to learn complex editing software while running everything else? When Dwight Churchill and I started Captions, we wanted to remove the friction from storytelling. And for years, the industry tried to get there by making editing tools more “intuitive.” But we realized something simpler: the most intuitive interface already exists. Sometimes, the best UI is no UI at all. At Mirage, our goal is to make video editing easier for everyone. So we kept asking: what’s the next step? What’s the real unlock? The answer was already in everyone’s pocket. Texting. Today, we’re launching Cappy: the first AI video editor you can text. We built this for the teams of one, the founders, the operators, and the creators who need to ship content—but don’t have time to edit. It’s as simple as it sounds: just text Cappy like you would a friend. Start by sending an idea, some clips, or just say hi. Try it out here → https://lnkd.in/eY_ZvxGW

We built the first AI video editor you can text. Why? Business owners wear a lot of hats. Video editor shouldn’t have to be one of them. So we made it simple: text Cappy like you would a friend… who happens to be really good at editing. Send an idea, some clips, or just say hi. Then chat until your video is exactly how you want it. No apps to download. No learning curve. Text Cappy now → https://lnkd.in/eSueaysA

Spotted in Tokyo: The entire Mirage team 🇯🇵 We just got back from our annual spring offsite… on the other side of the world. A week of strategy sessions, exploring the city, and stepping outside our day-to-day. A chance to reconnect, recharge and remember why we’re in this to begin with. We left Tokyo with a broader global perspective and more energy than ever. Excited for what 2026 holds.

“It’s not just about fully-generated video.” On TBPN, our CEO Gaurav Misra shared why the real opportunity is much bigger. It’s about blending real footage with generated moments and edits to tell a stronger story. That’s what creators and business owners actually want: highlighting what’s real, and using AI to intelligently enhance it. That’s what we’re building at Mirage.
