STAGES / RATE 24 FPS

One route, four stages.

Every engagement covers the whole route from card to published post. Most teams start with the stage that hurts most and grow from there.

FLOW 01 / INGEST

Ingest & Organise

Every camera, drive and cloud folder lands in one structured library: named, tagged and transcribed before anyone opens an editor.

  • Watch-folder and API ingest from cameras, drives, Frame.io, Dropbox and Drive.
  • Automatic naming, proxies, transcription and speaker labels.
  • A single source of truth you can search.
FLOW 02 / ASSEMBLY

Assembly

Transcript-driven rough cuts, silence removal, multicam sync and selects: a starting point in your house style, ready for an editor.

  • Paper edits generated from transcripts and approved in a browser.
  • Multicam sync, silence and filler removal tuned to your pacing.
  • Selects and b-roll pulled by semantic search across your own library.
FLOW 03 / FINISH

Brand & Finish

Lower thirds, captions, colour, loudness and motion templates applied consistently to every deliverable.

  • Your brand system encoded once, applied on every cut.
  • Captions styled per platform; colour and loudness matched to spec.
  • Motion graphics driven from data, so titles never go stale.
FLOW 04 / DELIVERY

QC & Delivery

Automated checks for black frames, loudness, safe areas and typos, then versioned and delivered for every platform.

  • Technical QC on every export: gaps, flash frames, loudness, aspect.
  • Aspect-ratio and duration variants generated from one master.
  • Delivered to your CMS, ad platform or DAM with a change log.
RATES / USD

What it costs.

Priced by what you publish, not by the hour. The route behind each format keeps getting shorter; the rate holds.
