Exporting your edit

Hitting export​

When the timeline looks the way you want it, hit Make the cut in the right-hand panel. That's the trigger that turns your reviewed timeline into an actual video file. Until that point, nothing has been rendered. You're just moving labels around.

Two ways to finish​

If you've gone through every segment and resolved each your call decision, the export runs straight away. If there are still your call segments waiting, you have two options:

  • Review them yourself first. Walk back through the timeline, flip each remaining gold badge to keep or cut, then export.
  • Let your editor decide on the rest. A second button appears that lets the editor resolve the remaining your-call segments using its own best guess, then export with those defaults applied. Useful when you've already reviewed the moments you cared about and the rest is clearly filler.

Either way, only the segments marked keep end up in the final video.

Rendering and delivery​

Rendering takes a few minutes, much faster than the original processing pass. You'll get an email when your clip is ready, with a download link. The exported file is a standard MP4 that drops straight into a video editor, social media uploader, or upload-to-YouTube workflow.

You can re-export the same stream as many times as you want during its 14-day retention window. Each re-export uses your current timeline decisions, so you can iterate on a cut without re-uploading the original footage.
