Helpful for those who care less about the craft and more about a quick outcome. Werner Herzog said that he watches his footage a few times, takes extensive notes then edits based on his notes. That's how he crafts such extraordinary, once-in-a-lifetime stories. But for those who are working on commercial or home movies, why not use AI to build a narrative? It can be like throwing dice and the outcome could be OK. Maybe even good.
Regardless, having a tool that knows the content of your footage is a huge time saver. Good luck with the product.
I totally resonate with you. Craft takes time, and that's completely valid. We're not focused on filmmakers right now, though we'd love to have them eventually.
That's also why we built a full editor alongside the agentic experience. Use AI where it helps, like finding the right shot or removing silences, and do the rest manually. And if you'd rather finish in your editor of choice, we support XML export for Premiere, DaVinci, etc.
And agreed, there's really no substitute for the kind of intentionality Herzog brings to his work :)
