Dear Adobe Premiere Pro Team,
I am currently working on developing an AI-powered auto video editing system that integrates with Adobe Premiere Pro. However, I have encountered significant limitations due to the way Premiere exports and represents project data (XML/JSON or other forms).
Specifically:
The exported XML does not fully capture complex effects applied through third-party plugins or native tools.
It is not possible to accurately detect where speed ramps, transitions, and keyframe-based effects are applied on specific clips and time ranges.
Many effect parameters remain hidden or inaccessible, which makes it very difficult for developers to build intelligent tools that interact with Premiere timelines in a meaningful way.
I kindly request that Adobe consider:
1. Providing a richer metadata export format (e.g., JSON with full effect details and time ranges).
2. Documenting and exposing all effect parameters and clip-level transformations, including speed ramps, third-party plugin metadata, and transitions.
3.Opening a more developer-friendly API/SDK that allows AI-driven applications to analyze and manipulate project data without guesswork or reverse engineering.
This would not only empower AI-based editing workflows but also expand Premiere Pro’s ecosystem, enabling developers to create next-generation automation and creative tools around Adobe products.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I believe opening these capabilities would strongly benefit both the developer community and Premiere Pro users.
Best regards,
