Features

Everything, in plain words.

Nine capabilities, each explained the easy way — no jargon, no buzzwords, no course required. Pick one; every page opens with the whole idea in a sentence.

Browser NLE

A real multi-lane editor in a tab: lanes, cuts, fades, speed ramps, transforms, titles. Five ideas — that's the whole vocabulary.

The whole editor, explained

Text-based editing

The transcript is the timeline. Select the words you don't want, press cut, and the video follows. Fillers and silences go in one click.

Edit at the speed of text

Auto-captions & titles

Captions read the same transcript as your edit — synced by construction. Style once, burn in at export, safe-zone aware.

Styled, not generated

Collections & tags

Folders you arrange, smart collections that maintain themselves, tags with bulk operations, and a library that cleans up after itself.

Folders vs. saved searches

Stock import

Pixabay, Pexels, Wikimedia in one panel. Import is real ingest — searchable and cuttable seconds later, not a download to sort.

Three sites, one search bar

Watch folders

Drop files into an S3 prefix; they appear in the library fully processed — proxies, transcript, tags — with resumable uploads.

Ingest that runs itself

Guest review links

A key you can take back: expiry, passphrase, view counts, PREVIEW watermark. Guests need no account; you can revoke any second.

Share without losing control

Review threads

Comments pinned to a frame, conversations in threads, decisions marked resolved. Internal notes stay separate from guests.

Four words to learn

Versions & compare

New cut? Stack it, don't overwrite. Side-by-side compare, comments that remember their version, approval on record.

Stack it, don't overwrite

API & automation

Every UI action has a REST path: tokens, signed webhooks, rules, audit export, usage metering. Your media pipeline, programmable.

Read the API story

Fast upload

Drag, drop, done — multi-file with progress and duplicate detection. Proxies and transcript are ready when you land in the editor.

The uploader story

Platform

Built like a platform, not a toy.

Audit trail

Every mutation recorded — actor, action, subject, IP, trace id. Admin view plus NDJSON/CSV export when compliance asks.

API tokens & webhooks

Machine clients get apt_… Bearer tokens. Rules react to events (ingest → transcribe, tag); HMAC-signed webhooks deliver them. Via API today.

Open formats

EDL, FCPXML 1.11, OTIO, and project JSON — hand off to Resolve, Premiere, or FCP whenever you want. Realtime co-editing with presence.

Everything, in one list.
