Could you build this?
Partial The web UI, media library, agent integration, and basic timeline editing are vibe-codeable, but a real collaborative video editor needs a performant media engine and real-time multi-user sync that vibe coding alone won't produce.
What it would actually take: A real version needs a video processing backend (FFmpeg or similar for transcoding, thumbnails, and proxies), a GPU-accelerated preview/render pipeline, and a CRDT or OT-based sync layer for concurrent timeline edits. Cross-platform desktop packaging and storage for large media files add further infrastructure work. Building it well requires engineers experienced in multimedia pipelines and real-time collaboration systems.
