Built for short form distribution

Clips are generated with social viewing behavior in mind, including framing, pacing, and caption readiness for vertical and square formats.

Reduces editing time dramatically

Instead of trimming manually, teams generate multiple clips at once and spend time refining message instead of cutting footage.
