MyClawn Edit › How it works
How the video editing service works
You upload raw footage and say what you want. You get a finished video back and ask for changes in one line. This is the full process, including what we cannot do.
1. Upload your footage
On the home page, drop up to 5 files, each up to 4 GB. Accepted: MP4, MOV, M4V, WebM, MKV, and audio files (MP3, WAV, M4A). Nothing to install, and no need to compress first.
2. Say what you want
Write the brief the way you would tell an editor. Examples that work:
- Cut the mistakes and long pauses, add captions, and make one vertical clip from the best moment.
- Just remove the ums.
- Make three vertical clips under 60 seconds with bold captions.
- Do not cut anything. Add accurate captions and give me an .srt file.
- Tighten this podcast episode: remove filler and dead air, level the audio, write chapters and show notes.
Useful extras: the platform you will post on, the tone (calm, punchy), spellings of names and terms, and anything you want to keep exactly.

Upload your files3. How the edit is made
The video is transcribed with word timings. That transcript is how it finds mistakes, retakes, filler words and dead air, and the strongest moments for clips. Cuts are then made on the video, captions are timed to the words, audio is leveled to -14 LUFS, and the original resolution is kept, up to 4K. Because the edit follows what was said, it works best on footage where someone is speaking: talking head, interview, podcast, tutorial, webinar.
Prepare your footage
- Upload the original, not a heavily compressed copy. Up to 4 GB per file, 5 files per job.
- Record clean audio if you can: the edit follows the words, so a clear voice gives better cuts and captions.
- If you made a mistake while recording, say it out loud and pause (for example, say retake). It may help you find the right take when you review the result, but it is not required.
- List names, brand terms and spellings that appear in the footage.
- Say where the video will be published: YouTube, Reels, TikTok, a website, a podcast feed.
4. What you get back
| You asked for | You receive |
|---|---|
| Clean cut | MP4 in your original format and resolution, captions burned in if requested |
| Shorts | Vertical 9:16 clips under 60 seconds with word-highlighted captions |
| Captions only | The video with captions, plus an .srt file |
| Podcast episode | Tightened episode, chapters, show notes, titles |
You get an email and a download page, usually within the hour. Reply with a one-line change request. Each job includes two rounds of changes.
A real test run
We tested a 4-minute raw recording. The service returned a vertical clip and a tightened cut in 8 minutes. That is one run on a short file; longer, heavier footage takes longer and we do not quote a guaranteed time.
Limits
- No motion graphics, animated titles or custom VFX
- No B-roll you did not upload
- No multi-camera sync or cinematic color grading
- Not for wedding films and story-led pieces that depend on a human eye
- Speech-led footage gives the best results; a silent screen recording has no words to cut on
Files are processed on our servers in Germany and read by our AI provider in the US under terms that exclude training; they are deleted after 30 days.
Price
$39 a month for 10 videos or $149 for 50, with a 14-day refund if it misses.
A brief that works and one that does not
| Weak brief | Better brief |
|---|---|
| Make it good | Cut mistakes and long pauses, keep my pacing otherwise, add captions |
| Make shorts | Find the 3 strongest moments and make each a vertical clip under 60 seconds with bold captions |
| Fix the audio | Remove ums, level the audio, do not change anything else |
| Podcast | Tighten this episode, remove filler and dead air, write chapters, show notes and 3 title options |
Worked example: a 30-minute podcast episode
You upload a 30-minute recording and write: Tighten this episode: remove filler and dead air, level the audio, and write chapters plus show notes. The service transcribes it with word timings, finds the filler words, long pauses and dead air, cuts them, levels loudness to -14 LUFS, and writes chapters, show notes and titles from the transcript. You get the tightened episode and the text. If a cut feels too aggressive, say so in one line and the pacing is adjusted in a change round. Chapters and show notes are only as good as the transcript, so check names and claims before publishing.
