Cut raw footage into finished video edits as text files
Turns raw footage into finished social or ad-ready video by working from text files: cut lists, captions, and on-screen graphics are numbers and labels you edit, then a script re-renders the whole video, using ffmpeg and speech-to-text under the hood.
Good for
- Cut a long take into a short video
- Add captions and on-screen graphics from a transcript
- Rebuild a video edit after a note
