Six clips worth posting, not thirty to sort through. Every one picked over by a person, cut to the word, captioned, and checked against platform rules before it reaches you.
Finding candidates is easy. Deciding which ones you should actually post is not.
One episode will yield a dozen possible clips. Most of them should not go out. Someone has to make that call, and be answerable for it.
Software is good at finding moments. It will not tell you an episode was thin, or that a clip makes you look bad, or that you posted something too close to it last week. Those calls are ours, and we put a name to them. Real clips replace these frames once a client is happy to be shown, never before.
Four steps. You are involved in one of them.
You send the episodeYou
A link or a file. Vertical and landscape both work.
We transcribe it to the wordUs
Every word gets its own timestamp, so captions land on the syllable and cuts land between words instead of through them.
AI reads it, a person decidesUs
The model marks every candidate; a person kills the weak ones and fixes the timings. You get what survived — timecode, the words, and why each one earns a clip — before anything is cut.
You approve, we deliverYou, then us
Reframed to 1080×1920, dead air removed, captions burned in, monetisation checked. Ready to post.

Built for episodes 40 minutes and longer; a typical hour-long episode holds three to four strong clips, more on a big one. Every clip is one a person chose and expects you to post — we do not pad the count. Unused clips roll over one month. How this compares to the rest of the market →
Twenty minutes, and you will know if this fits.
Bring an episode you think has something in it. We will talk through what we would pull from it and what a month would look like.
- ✓Google Meet or Zoom, your choice
- ✓No deck, no pitch
- ✓A straight answer on whether your show suits this

What we know about clipping, written down.
Honest answers to the things people ask before they buy — including the cases where we are not the right answer.
The things people ask first.
How is this different from an AI clipping tool?
We use AI too — it reads every word and marks the candidates. The difference is what happens after: a person culls that list, fixes the timings, and puts their name to what ships. A tool hands you thirty candidates and two hours of work. The long answer, including when you should just use the tool →
What does the monetisation check do?
Every clip is scanned before delivery for language that costs you reach or ad revenue, bleeped in the audio and masked in the captions together, with the strictest treatment on the opening seconds. We work hard to keep every clip inside the platforms’ advertiser guidelines — but we cannot guarantee the outcome. Platforms apply their own rules unevenly and change them without notice. If a clip is limited or claimed within 60 days of delivery, while your plan is active, because of something in our edit, tell us and we re-cut or replace it at no charge. Why both matter →
How does payment work?
After the call we send a secure card link for the tier you picked. It bills monthly and you can cancel from the same link any time. No setup fee, no minimum term.
Do I have to approve every clip?
You approve the list before anything is cut — timecodes, the actual words, and why each moment was chosen. Most clients read it in five minutes, and turnaround runs from your yes. No reply in two business days and we go ahead with our own top picks, so nothing sits waiting. If you would rather we just ship every time, we can do that too.
What if my episodes are longer or shorter than an hour?
Anything 40 minutes and up works. Every episode gets at least three clips whatever its length; a longer episode usually yields more, and simply uses more of the month’s allowance.
Who owns the clips?
You do, outright. We do not post on your behalf unless you ask, and we never use your footage as a sample without written permission.
