Frequently asked questions
What does Glide do?
It is one Premiere Pro panel. Clip presets has 321 camera-move presets in Basic motion (zoom, pan, overshoot, pulse, continuous drifts and fades), plus 54 that start at the playhead; Advanced motion to chain moves as nodes; and AI, where Auto-pilot gives moves to a whole edit, with your own AI or without it. Element presets animates icons, logos and b-roll that come in and leave, one at a time or many at once. Keyframes shows every keyframe of the selected clips on a Timeline, and its Curve Editor shapes the easing. Beats finds the beats in your music so motion can land on them, and Captions transcribes and translates offline, in Animated or Fast styles. Motion is written as ordinary keyframes on your clips; captions are Premiere templates on their own track.
Are the results real keyframes?
Yes. Glide writes ordinary Premiere keyframes on the clip's built-in Motion and Opacity, so you can see and edit them in Effect Controls. It adds no plugin effects, and adds an adjustment layer only when you choose one (such as On an adjustment layer, As one clip or Add adjustment layer): the move then sits on Premiere's own Transform effect on that layer, and the clips stay untouched.
Does it work on vertical or square videos?
Yes. It works in landscape, vertical (9:16), square and 4:5 sequences, and with clips of a different size or shape than the sequence. It adjusts the scale so no black edges show.
Which versions of Premiere Pro are supported?
Premiere Pro 2022 (22.0) or newer on Windows 10 and 11. macOS is planned but has not been tested yet.
Can I undo what Glide did?
Yes. Undo and Redo at the top of the panel cover the motion Glide wrote. After each change the status line offers Undo too; for adjustment layers, As one clip and the AI tabs' Apply it puts the whole sequence back in one go, from a copy Glide keeps in a bin named Glide undo copies. Remove Motion restores the clip's original scale, position and anchor. On the Captions and Beats tabs, Ctrl+Z is Premiere's own Undo.
Do I need ChatGPT or Claude?
No. Glide works without AI: Clip presets › AI has Auto-pilot without AI, and Element presets › AI has Add without AI. If you have ChatGPT or Claude, those two tabs can use it: on your own plan through OpenAI's Codex or Anthropic's Claude Code, or with your own API key. Glide pays nothing and passes nothing on, so the use is on your own account, and it never sees your sign-in. Only text, and a still picture when a feature needs one, goes to your AI: never the video or the sound.
Do captions need the internet or an account?
No account, and nothing is uploaded. Transcription (54 languages) and translation (49 languages) run on your computer, free. The speech program and its model download once, on first use, and each translation language the first time you pick it. After that captions work offline. Translating needs a Premiere newer than 2022.
How does the licence work?
Glide is a one-time purchase of $39: no subscription. You get one licence code, in your receipt email. It activates Glide on up to two of your computers: the first time you open Glide it asks for the code (or open the ⋯ menu › Enter licence code). The panel checks the code online about once a day; if you are offline it keeps working for 14 days after the last check.
How do I move Glide to a new computer?
On the old computer open the ⋯ menu › Deactivate this PC, then enter your code on the new one. If the old computer is gone or broken, email us and we will free the code.
I bought Glide but the code says it is already in use.
The code is already active on two computers. Deactivate it on one of them (see above), or contact support and we will reset it.
What if Glide is not right for me?
Glide has a 7-day money-back guarantee. Use it in your own projects, and if it is not right for you, ask within 7 days of your purchase for a full refund. See the next question for how.
Can I get a refund?
Yes, a full refund for any reason if you ask within 7 days of your purchase. Email support@motionvisionfx.com with your order number, or use the link in your Creem receipt. The refunded licence code is switched off. After 7 days purchases are final, except a double purchase by mistake, a problem that keeps Glide from working on your computer which you report within 30 days and we cannot fix, or where the law requires a refund. Refunds are paid by Creem, our reseller, back to your original payment method. Details are in the refund policy.
Who processes my payment?
Creem, our online reseller and merchant of record. It handles the payment, sales tax, VAT or GST, and your invoice. We never see your card details.
What data does Glide collect?
None about your projects or footage, and there is no analytics or tracking in the plugin. The only thing the panel sends to us is the licence check: your code and a short fingerprint of this PC, a hash of Windows' own machine id, never its name. If you connect your own ChatGPT or Claude, the AI options send text (and a still picture when a feature needs one) from your computer to OpenAI or Anthropic, on your own account; we never receive it. Details are on the privacy page.
Something went wrong. What do I send you?
Email support@motionvisionfx.com with your Premiere Pro and Windows versions and what you were doing when it happened; a screenshot helps. We answer within 3 business days. Nothing is sent from the panel automatically.
