Tell the story in words. We do the mix.

Three hours of rushes, and the story is in there somewhere. Write the dramaturgy you want — phases, mood, length, style — and the engine assembles a story-driven cut for your review on the timeline. The mapping was the long part. It's done.

How it works

Three steps. No timeline required.

  1. 01

    Import hours of footage

    We transcribe the words and the visuals — so the engine knows who said what, about which moment, and what was on screen while they said it.

  2. 02

    Write the story you want told

    Phases, mood, target length, editorial style. A real brief, like you’d give a cutter — not a template, not a checkbox.

  3. 03

    Review the assembled cut

    The mix lands on your timeline in story order. Every cut is visible, movable, and yours to keep or kill.

What you get

Built in, not bolted on.

  • Two-pass story analysis

    First the engine maps every statement in the footage; then it arranges — picking the strongest telling of each phase before a single cut is placed.

  • Cross-speaker dramaturgy

    Five people telling one story? The best telling of each beat can come from a different voice — the stories attach to each other, not just follow.

  • Audio and visual understanding

    Not just the transcript: the engine also reads what was on screen, so the cut can follow the pictures as well as the words.

  • Length and style you set

    A duration target the cut actually honours, and editorial styles including documentary pacing. Three hours of webinar became one watchable hour this way.

The mix is a draft cut for your review, not a finished film — and its quality follows the quality of the footage. What the engine saves you is the mapping and the first assembly; the judgement stays yours.

One suite, every tool

The same engine, other doors.

Each tool here is the same production suite, entered where you need it. Start with one; the rest is already there.
