ASUS and GoPro team up to integrate AI into StoryCube and offer six months of GoPro Premium+ with new ProArt laptops

When you spend hours between cameras, files and editing programs, the last thing you want is for technology to hinder you. Therefore, the new alliance between ASUS ProArt and GoPro seems more than an advertisement to me: is a nod to creators who seek fluidity, not complications. The collaboration revolves around a tool called StoryCubewhich functions as an operations center: it integrates the GoPro cloud, 360° files, AI to organize scenes and a direct connection to editing apps such as Premiere or CapCut.

But that’s not all: those who purchase certain ASUS laptops (ProArt, Zenbook, Vivobook) can receive up to six months free of GoPro Premium+with unlimited cloud storage and tools that would normally come separately. The technical protagonist that stands out is the ProArt P16, with an RTX GPU, OLED screen and power to deal with 8K footage without blinking.

StoryCube: the app that wants to combine capture, cloud and editing

What I like most about this play is StoryCube. ASUS describes it as the first Windows application that integrates the GoPro cloud and directly supports 360° video. That means you can view .360 files, preview them, rearrange shots from the cloud, and drag them to the editor of your choice without jumping from app to app.

But he doesn’t do it alone: StoryCube has built-in AI to recognize scenes (surf, bike, snow), locate shots by GPS location, and classify content by activity. Instead of the creator spending hours searching through thousands of clips, they can jump right to what’s important. The app was trained with images captured with action cameras, so it understands the visual patterns most used by those who work with extreme video.

It also integrates with the ASUS ecosystem: StoryCube is accompanied by MuseTree and connection with iCUE Dial / Control Panel so you can control cuts or effects without having to leave the keyboard. A smart idea if your flow demands speed.

ProArt P16: the laptop that can handle your most ambitious projects

So that this system is not just pretty on paper, ASUS puts the ProArt P16 on display as its bet for 360° creators. It’s no coincidence: its setup supports real 8K footage from GoPro MAX2 cameras, and its screen OLED Lumina Pro promises exact color, high gloss and fluidity thanks to the 120Hz panel with VRR.

The hardware: a Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 with integrated NPU (up to 50 TOPS) + an RTX 5090 GPU. That combination delivers CPU power, AI acceleration, and GPU for heavy rendering, simultaneous editing, and demanding projects. And all this with integrated AI tools such as automatic stitching, reframing and real-time stabilization.

Another advantage: 10-bit 4:2:2 color, dual AV1 encoder, smooth 4K/8K multi-track editing and fast export. On a day-to-day basis, this set means you spend less time waiting and more time producing.

Subscription, cloud and beyond hardware

So that collaboration does not remain just tools, ASUS and GoPro launch a very specific offer: selected laptops come with up to six months of free GoPro Premium+. That implies unlimited storage for GoPro videos, 500 GB for external files, automatic highlight generation, camera replacement and more. The idea is that the user has complete tools from the start.

But be careful: this special offer has Limited validity (between October 2025 and December 2027) and applies in selected territories. You have to check if your area is within it. It is also worth seeing which specific laptop models are included: ASUS does not give everything to everyone, but to those who buy from compatible lines.

What it really means for creators

What resonates most with me about this alliance is that reduces the “operational noise” of creative work. Instead of switching between the camera, the cloud, the cataloging application, the editor and repeating the cycle, StoryCube seeks to concentrate that flow on a single axis. If it works as well as they promise, it can save hours of tedium.

Another reading: ASUS not only delivers strong hardware, but also positions itself as a platform for creators. A powerful laptop is not enough; you need tools to harness that power, and here come StoryCube, MuseTree and the ProArt ecosystem. If you get the tools to communicate well, you gain a synergy effect that few others offer.

Finally, the union of ASUS with GoPro makes strategic sense: action cameras are protagonists of 2025 content. If those who use GoPro have a less tortuous path to editing, ASUS gains ground against competitors that only sell hardware. It is more than a technical alliance: it is playing in the same league of visual storytellers.
