From Hundreds of ClipsTo Client-Ready in Minutes
Lightroom-style culling, built for video. Pull a shoot straight off your iPhone, rate, flag and filter at keyboard speed, then deliver — sequentially renamed selects for the client, or a finished reel for the feed. Your original files are never touched.
Client Delivery Eating Your Weekend?
After a shoot you're left with hundreds of clips, and the client is waiting. Wrestling them off the phone through Image Capture, scrubbing each one in a player, dragging keepers into folders, renaming files by hand so they arrive in a sensible order — the wade through your own footage costs more hours than the shoot did.
- ✗Slow preview loading in traditional file browsers
- ✗Constantly switching between apps to rate and organize
- ✗No quick way to mark selects and rejects
- ✗Renaming delivery files one by one so they land in order
- ✗A second app just to cut a 30-second reel
Like Lightroom, But for Video
If you cull stills in Lightroom, you already know how this works. Star ratings, picks and rejects, filter down to what survived, then export the set — except here it's video, previewing instantly, and the export arrives at the client sequentially renamed and in order.
- ✓Import a shoot straight off your iPhone, by the day
- ✓See all your clips in a horizontal timeline at once
- ✓Instant preview without opening external apps
- ✓Rate, select and reject using keyboard hotkeys
- ✓Deliver selects renamed in order, with your own prefix
- ✓Cut a reel with music and colour, up to 4K
- ✓Non-destructive — your originals stay untouched
Everything You Need, Cull to Delivery
Purpose-built features that take you from raw footage to a client handover, without ever changing your original files
Import from iPhone
Plug the phone in and pull clips straight across into a named shoot folder. The grid splits by the day each clip was shot, so taking Saturday off a phone holding a month is one click.
Visual Horizontal View
Browse all your video clips as thumbnails in a responsive layout. See everything at a glance.
Instant Preview
Highlighted videos instantly preview in the dedicated view as you move through the clips.
Star Ratings
Rate clips with 1-5 stars for quick sorting. Find your best footage instantly.
Pick/Reject Selection
Simple binary selection for fast culling. Mark keepers and rejects with a single keystroke.
Keyboard Hotkeys
Navigate, rate and select without touching the mouse. Built for speed and efficiency.
Lossless Trimming
Trim any clip without leaving the app. Save over the original keeping your ratings, or save the trim as a new clip.
Snapshots Mode
Swap the filmstrip for every frame you have captured, shown full size, and step through them with the arrow keys.
Client Delivery
Export your selects renamed in sequence, in the order you arranged them, with your own prefix. Copy to a delivery folder or move them out to clear the card, stills following alongside.
Edit Mode
Join your picks into a reel, trim, split and drag to reorder, then export one file. Cut as many reels from a folder as you like.
Stills That Move
Drop captured frames into a reel, or build a slideshow from them, each with a slow Ken Burns zoom or pan.
Score With Music
Lay a track under the whole reel, trimmed against its waveform and set to sit under your clips.
Colour Grading
Grade each clip, match one to the next in a click, and save looks to reuse on every shoot.
Dissolves & Fades
Set a dissolve cut by cut, open or close your reel on black or white, and crossfade the sound so a change in room tone never jolts.
Export up to 4K
Deliver in 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9 with length guides for Reels, Shorts and TikTok, or guides of your own.
Automatic Backups
Your ratings and reels are copied quietly beside your clips, and restored if anything goes wrong.
