Based on beta user data

Editing is art. Getting approvals is hell.

Subjective Feedback

Clients ask to "make it more dynamic."

You have no idea what that means in frames and cuts. Every revision is a coin flip.

Brand Blindness

Wrong font at 00:15. Missing logo in the outro.

You only find out after the client's art director sends a 47-point revision list.

Revision Burnout

You spend 5 hours editing and 10 hours reworking.

By the third round of revisions, you hate the project, the client, and your career choice.

"I used to dread the revision email. Now I send the first cut with the AI Scorecard attached and hear back: 'Approved, no changes.' That has never happened before."

"We have 6 editors. Before DirectorMode, quality control meant I personally reviewed every project. Now the AI catches what I'd catch — brand fonts, pacing drops, missing CTAs — before it reaches my desk. My judgment, scaled."

Creator, real estate niche

"My Reels went from 200 views to 12K average after I started fixing the exact timestamps DirectorMode flagged. It's like having a creative director who actually watches your content."

Your AI Creative Director. Here's the Workflow.

Upload the Context

Drop your video and attach the creative brief or brand book. The AI grades your edit against them — so the feedback is tied to your goals, not generic best practice.

Multi-Agent AI Audit

Specialized AI agents analyze your video in parallel — retention, brand compliance, audio, platform fit, CTAs, and visual quality. You get a prioritized list of micro-fixes, each mapped to the exact timestamp so you can jump straight to it.

Fix in Your Editor

Work through the fix list — every issue carries its exact timestamp. Jump to it in Premiere, DaVinci, or any NLE and make the change yourself. You decide what to keep, what to change, what to ignore.

Killer Features

Timeline-Precise Fixes

Every recommendation is a direct micro-command ("Cut 0.5s pause at 0:42", "Change font to Brandon Grotesque") tied to the exact timestamp. Copy-paste precision, zero interpretation — apply it in your NLE.

Proof of Retention

Generate a public AI Audit Link and send it to your client. They see the grade and the category-by-category radar — the algorithmic proof that your edit works. No more "I just don't feel it" conversations.

Context-Aware Analysis

Attach your creative brief, tone of voice, and brand book. The audit grades your edit against them — and tells you what it needs when a brand book is required — so the feedback fits your actual goals.

Upload a video. Get a prioritized fix list with exact timestamps you act on in your NLE.

Run it from your AI assistant

DirectorMode.AI speaks the Model Context Protocol — the open standard assistants use to work with outside tools. Connect it once with your account, and the whole loop runs from a conversation, on your plan and your quota. No API key to manage.

Send a cut from the chat

Ask your assistant to analyse a video: it sets up the project and hands you an upload link. You pick the director and the platform in the same sentence.

Watch the audit run

It follows the analysis stage by stage and reads you the verdict when it lands — the score, the weakest criterion, and the fixes worth doing first.

Compare two versions

Re-cut, re-run, and ask what actually improved. The two radars come back side by side, with the criterion that moved called out.

Any assistant that supports MCP connectors can use it — we run it daily with Claude. Setup is one address and a sign-in: you approve what the assistant may do, and nothing is charged until you start an analysis.

Who It's For

For Freelance Editors

Stop second-guessing your creative decisions. Send the final cut with an AI Audit Scorecard attached. When clients push back, you have the data — not just your gut.

For Agency Owners

Your junior editor just delivered a project with the wrong brand font in 14 scenes. You caught it on the 3rd review. DirectorMode catches it on the first — across every editor on your team.

For Content Creators

Your last Reel got 200 views. Was it the hook? The pacing? The audio? Stop guessing. Upload the draft, get exact timestamps where viewers would drop, fix before you post.

Your Work. Your Voice. Your Decisions.

DirectorMode doesn't rewrite your content or generate ideas. It shows you where the structure is weak — you decide what to do about it.

You Stay the Author

Every recommendation is a suggestion, not a directive. DirectorMode spots weak hooks, pacing drops, and compliance gaps. You decide what to keep, what to fix, what to ignore. The creative calls are always yours.

Not Autopilot. A Second Pair of Eyes.

Built for professionals who are already good at what they do. This isn't AI that thinks for you. It's AI that catches what you'd miss on the 30th rewatch — so you can make better decisions, faster.

Encrypted In Transit & At Rest

Your videos are encrypted on the way to us and while stored. Analysis is fully automated, and access to your footage is tightly restricted.

You Control Retention

We keep your videos only as long as you need them. Delete your content or your account anytime.

No Training on Your Data

Your content is never used to train AI models. Your creative work stays proprietary.

Access Control

Only you can see your projects. Public Scorecards are read-only, with no source video.

Encrypted in transit and at rest. Data processed in the United States (Google Cloud).
