The editor for footage that actually happened

Your footage.
Never faked.

Drop in the clips you filmed. A crew of four AI agents shapes them into a polished pitch or demo — without generating a single frame.

02 / The trust test

Perfect is easy. Believable is rare.

In investor rooms, demo days, and judging panels, synthetic polish creates doubt. Drag the blade. Feel how fast “impressive” becomes “did that happen?”

A rough edge is evidence.

03 / Watch the edit argue back

Four minds.
One cut.

This isn’t a scripted pipeline. The Planner makes a case. The Critic pushes back. They revise until the story holds — and the number of rounds changes every run.

04 / Keep the rhythm, not the recording

Every finished cut becomes a reusable recipe.

The Post-production Director extracts cut rhythm, transitions, caption treatment, and mood. Someone else can remix that structure with their own footage. Your clips stay yours.

Footage never leaves your machine.
05 / Say it once. Remember it.

From scop, the Old English storyteller-poet. Before there were editors, there were storytellers. Every video is still a story told in cuts.
