Stuff people ask at the bar.

Who's actually on the roster?

Editors with shipped, public work. No template-jockeys, no AI auto-cutters. Every applicant submits a reel and three references; we review every single one.

What does it cost editors?

Nothing to apply. If you book through us, we take a flat 8% — that's the only fee. No subscription, no listing fees, no bidding.

How fast does a brand actually get a cut?

Average is 11 days from brief to ship for short-form, 21 days for brand films. We won't promise faster than that — we'd rather hit it than miss it.

Do you do studios, not just freelancers?

Yes. Studios join the roster the same way. We've got crews of 3–25 on platform, with full producer / colorist / sound benches.

Where's the catch?

If you want the cheapest editor on the internet, this isn't it. If you want the right one, it is.
