Short-form video editing for TikTok, Shorts and Reels

Built for retention. Designed to hook and hold.

Short-form lives or dies in the first second. We cut TikToks, YouTube Shorts and Reels so the hook lands immediately, the pacing never sags, and the payoff arrives before thumbs move on.

Every edit is platform-native: the right aspect ratio, safe zones for each app's interface, captions people can read with the sound off, and a loop where it helps.

What's included

  • Hook-first structure, cutting dead air from the opening
  • Burnt-in captions styled for your channel
  • Jump cuts, zooms, sound design and on-screen text for pacing
  • Platform safe zones for TikTok, Shorts and Reels
  • Clips cut from your long-form videos or streams
  • Exports formatted for each platform, ready to post

How we approach it.

  1. 01

    Find the moment

    We pick the strongest few seconds and build the video around them, not the other way round.

  2. 02

    Cut for retention

    Every beat earns its place. If a line doesn't move the video forward, it goes.

  3. 03

    Make it readable

    Captions and text so the video works muted, which is how most people first see it.

  4. 04

    Learn and repeat

    We look at what performed and carry it into the next batch.
