Posted Aug 26, 2026

Summary

You send us footage and a brief, we send you back a finished edit, free of charge. No cost, no upsell, no catch. We have talented video editors on standby who are ready to help and can ensure that your videos are delivered back to you within the time constraints you provide.

What You'll Get

A completed edit of your footage, built to the brief you give us, free.

What We Need From You

  • The raw footage. Everything you'd hand a freelance editor: all usable clips, b-roll, separate audio, logos, graphics, any assets you want included.

  • A detailed brief. The more specific, the better the result. Useful things to include:

    • Where it's going (Instagram, YouTube, your website, a trade show loop) and target length

    • Tone and pacing — punchy and fast, calm and documentary, something else

    • Music preferences, or whether you're supplying a track

    • Captions or subtitles, and in what style

    • Brand colors, fonts, logo placement

    • Moments that must stay in, and anything that must come out

    • One or two example videos whose style you like

    • Any deadline you're working toward

How Your Footage Is Used

We want to be explicit about this:

  • Your footage is used to evaluate AI model capabilities on real-world editing tasks — how well models handle an actual brief with actual material.

  • Your footage is not used as training data.

  • It isn't resold, published, or shared outside this evaluation work.

Who This Is For

Small businesses, solo creators, nonprofits, and anyone sitting on footage they haven't had the time, budget, or software to turn into something finished. No prior editing experience needed — you don't have to know the terminology, just what you want the video to feel like.

Before You Submit

Please confirm you own the footage or have the rights to use it, and that anyone clearly identifiable in it has agreed to appear
