Instagram Edits Adds 100x Speed and Fonts
Instagram has updated its Edits tool by introducing a Speed feature that lets creators accelerate clips up to 100x, enabling trend cuts, transitions, and timelapse reels to be paced directly within a project without exporting to external apps. The update also expands typography with new Korean fonts and anticipates additional languages, with Valentine’s Day–themed fonts and sound effects added for short‑term campaigns. This release continues a broader shift in Edits from a standalone editing tool toward an all‑in‑one creator workflow that blends content creation, analysis, and strategy. Earlier updates included a Copy‑and‑Paste feature and automatic adjustments across multiple tracks, while January’s Insights Tabs enable Reels performance comparisons, data sharing, and AI‑assisted comment analysis. Together, the changes reflect Instagram’s aim to position Edits as a more comprehensive creator hub within the platform.
Edits Adds Freeze Frame & Voiceover Teleprompter
Meta’s video editing app Edits rolls out three new creator-focused features to improve Reels storytelling: Sound Effects for you (a personalized audio suggestions tab), Freeze Frame to freeze specific frames for emphasis, and a Voiceover Teleprompter that displays script text on screen during recording. Initially available to iOS users, the update follows Edits’ prior enhancements such as automatic caption highlights and faster Reels playback (up to 100x). The features are presented by Instagram’s official Creators account, underscoring Edits’ role as a CapCut-like option within the Meta ecosystem for content creation across Instagram, Facebook, and Threads.
LinkedIn says don't treat leads as finish in B2B
At LinkedIn's B2Believe event in its new Empire State Building space, executives and practitioners called for a shift from lead-centric B2B marketing to a 'full journey' approach that links signals, targeting, creative, full journey, and measurement. Jae Oh, senior director of product management, revealed that fewer than 10% of upper-funnel audiences make it into bottom-funnel campaigns, urging marketers to connect awareness with demand capture. Research from LinkedIn's B2B Institute with eMarketer showed 77% of marketers say they no longer target individuals, yet only 31% have a playbook for activating audiences down the funnel. Practitioners from Canva, SAP, Mastercard, and others shared examples of aligning marketing and sales on common signals. LinkedIn also outlined a product roadmap focused on cost-per-opportunity targeting, multi-format campaigns, agentic workflows, and incrementality forecasting.
