AI for creators

Clips found and briefs read, with a person deciding.

AI saves a creator's team time where the work is watching and reading: hours of VOD, and briefs from brands. We build assistants that do the first pass and leave the choice to your editor or manager, on models that suit what you are willing to send where.

// what matters here

What is different in this industry.

01

Your editor decides

Suggestions come with timestamps and reasons. Nothing is cut, titled or posted without a person.

02

Open-source where it matters

VODs can be transcribed on servers you control, so unreleased footage never leaves them.

03

Briefs read, not answered

The deal assistant fills in the details from a brief; your manager checks every offer.

04

Tested on your own content

A set of your past streams and briefs, run before every change to the assistant.

// example projects

Priced examples for this service.

Each one is hypothetical, labelled as such, and priced live from our rate card. Open any of them in the estimator and make it yours.

Clip and VOD assistant

Hypothetical. Not a client, not a result.

// The problem

A streamer's editor watches hours of VOD each week to find the moments worth clipping, then writes chapters and titles for every upload.

// What we would build

An assistant that transcribes each VOD with an open-source model on servers you control, suggests moments worth clipping with their timestamps, and writes chapter markers and a first pass at titles and descriptions. Your editor picks, trims and approves; nothing is posted without them.

// What is in it

  • VODs transcribed on servers you control
  • Suggested clip moments with timestamps and a reason
  • Chapter markers and a first pass at titles and descriptions
  • Search across every past stream by what was said
  • Your editor approves everything before it is posted

Brand deal pipeline, rescued

Hypothetical. Not a client, not a result.

// The problem

A creator agency paid a supplier for a deal-tracking app that stalled half built, and its talent managers went back to spreadsheets and email to track briefs, offers and contracts.

// What we would build

We start with a short architecture review of what was built and tell you plainly what to keep. Then we finish it as a pipeline from first brief to paid invoice, with an assistant that reads incoming briefs and fills in the deal for a manager to check.

// What is in it

  • An architecture review of the stalled app, with a plain recommendation
  • Every deal from brief to offer, contract, delivery and invoice
  • An assistant that reads briefs and fills in the deal for review
  • Each manager's creators, deals and deadlines on one screen
  • The spreadsheets moved in, and checked with your team

// questions

Questions we get about this.

Will the clip assistant post to TikTok or YouTube Shorts on its own?

No. It suggests moments and writes a first pass; your editor trims, approves and posts.

Does our unreleased footage go to an outside AI company?

Not with the open-source route. Transcription and suggestions run on servers you control.

Can the brand deal assistant negotiate for our creators?

No. It reads briefs and fills in the deal. People negotiate and agree terms.
