Editing takes longer than filming
Finding clean takes, cutting pauses and filler, timing captions and placing supporting clips consume the hours that should go to ideas.
Phillipe, the AI video editor I co-founded, is my main project. Below it are earlier projects, each written up with the problem, the system, the evidence and the limits.
A product I co-founded with Sebastian Gonzalez Capdevielle for creators and personal brands who film themselves talking. It turns raw footage into a finished, designed short, vertical 9:16 or horizontal 16:9, that the person reviews, corrects in chat on a paid plan and approves.
Finding clean takes, cutting pauses and filler, timing captions and placing supporting clips consume the hours that should go to ideas.
Phillipe transcribes the speech with word-level timing, cuts pauses, filler and repeated takes, places B-roll on spoken beats, then adds word-timed captions, pacing and music.
Word-by-word kinetic typography, a hero word carrying each line, script and serif accents, text that can sit behind the speaker and B-roll cut on the spoken beat.
The free plan includes one finished video a month. Paid plans add custom instructions and corrections in chat, and every edit shows a credit estimate before it runs.
See plans on phillipe.aiBuilt for short videos of a person talking, vertical or horizontal, not for long-form productions. The person reviews the rough cut and approves the result. The Clean style is still preview-only.

Edit a talking-head videoWord-by-word captionsB-roll on the right beatA temporary experiment that communities could invite, connect to their knowledge and use to support their members.
Members repeat questions, important answers disappear inside feeds and community managers spend time responding manually.
The assistant learned community knowledge, answered member questions, created engagement posts and supported about-page testing.
The project was used across 50 Skool communities. It was a temporary experiment and was never monetized.
Read the full case studyAn anonymized vitamin company needed a more consistent way to understand competitor content and publish relevant company updates.
The system researched competitor posts and received internal company context through Slack.
It generated and published content informed by both outside patterns and the company’s actual activity.
The client reported about four hours saved weekly and a three-percent revenue increase during the project period.
