Who this is for
You have the content. You need the machine behind it.
This isn’t for podcasters with a 5-person production team. It’s for the ones doing it themselves, stitching together freelancers, or skipping post-production entirely.
Solo podcasters editing at 2AM
You love recording. You hate the 8 hours of editing after. You know your show could look and sound better, but you don’t have the time or the team.
Founders using a podcast for growth
Your podcast is a content marketing channel, not a hobby. You need professional output, consistent publishing, and shorts that drive traffic back to your business.
Tired of freelancer roulette
You’ve tried Fiverr editors, agency packages, that one guy your friend recommended. Quality is inconsistent, communication is painful, and you’re still doing half the work.
Know you should repurpose, but don't
You publish the long-form and move on. No shorts, no clips, no social. You’re leaving 90% of the content value on the table because clipping takes forever.
How it works
From raw recording to everywhere.
Record your episode. Upload the raw file. That's it.
Drop the file in our shared drive. No project briefs, no intake forms. Just the raw footage.
Record as usual
Riverside, Zencastr, Zoom, in-person. Any setup, any format.
Upload raw files
Shared Google Drive or Dropbox. We take it from there.
Optional notes
Flag moments you loved or sections to cut. Or say nothing.
We edit the long-form and extract 7 shorts. In 7 days.
Full long-form edit, then 7 shorts pulled from the best moments. Plus thumbnail, title, and description.
Full long-form edit

Review portal
Long-form, shorts, thumbnail, copy. All in one place.
Timestamped feedback
“Cut this.” “Make this shorter.” “Love this one.”
Same-day revisions
Turned around within the same business day.
Download, publish, grow.
Final files in every format. Long-form for YouTube/Spotify. Vertical shorts for TikTok, Reels, LinkedIn.
Platform-ready files
Every format, every size, every platform spec handled.
Content calendar
Suggested posting schedule to stagger shorts for max reach.
Rinse and repeat
Next episode, same process. Style guide locked from week one.

Questions
Before you ask.
Anything. MP4, MOV, WAV, MP3, ProRes, multi-track, single-track. Recorded on Riverside, Zencastr, SquadCast, Zoom, OBS, in-person cameras. If it exists as a file, we can edit it.
We build your style guide (intro/outro, caption styling, thumbnail template, color palette), assign your dedicated editor, and do a test edit so you can see our quality before full production begins. Every plan includes an onboarding strategy call to align on your goals and format.
Your subscription continues regardless of whether you send footage. We allocate a dedicated editor, reserved production slots, and infrastructure specifically for your show. These resources are held for you whether or not you use them. Unused episode credits do not roll over to the following month. If you know you’ll have an irregular schedule, the month-to-month Flexible plan lets you cancel anytime.
You can flag specific moments, or leave it entirely to us. Most clients flag 2-3 favorites and let us find the rest. We pick based on what’s most shareable, emotional, or provocative.
Each additional episode beyond 4 is billed at a per-episode rate based on your plan. Contact us and we’ll build a custom package.
Absolutely. Send your branding assets during onboarding and we bake them into every episode and short. If you don’t have them, we can create them as an add-on.
After we deliver the first cut, you leave timestamped feedback in our review portal. Revisions are turned around the same business day. No limits on revision rounds.
We deliver platform-ready files. You handle publishing because you control your accounts and scheduling. We provide a content calendar suggestion so you know when to post each short.
Same core: 4 long-form edits, 7 shorts each, titles, and descriptions. The differences: quarterly and annual include thumbnails. Annual includes monthly strategy calls and priority queue. Annual is $999/mo with the onboarding fee waived. Everyone gets an onboarding strategy call.
The discounted rate is available because of the commitment. If you cancel early, the remaining months are billed at the month-to-month rate ($1,997) minus what you’ve already paid. This is standard for contract-based pricing.
You're one upload away
from never editing again.
