✦ Music Video Cuts & story-first workflows

Love shooting. Enjoy the edit again.

Assist works inside DaVinci Resolve to build your first timeline — music video cuts, beat-synced montages, reel clones, and dialogue-led assemblies — so you stay in the director's chair. We speed up the process; you own the creative call.

macOS says Assist is damaged or won’t open?

This is usually Gatekeeper on a downloaded app, not a broken file. After you drag Assist_AI_Editor.app to Applications, run this in Terminal:

xattr -cr /Applications/Assist_AI_Editor.app

Then right-click the app → Open (first launch only), or use System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway if it appears.

How we think about editing

We are not here to edit for you.

Assist handles the repetitive lift — syncing bins, laying down a first pass, matching a reference reel, cutting on the beat — so you can spend your energy on pacing, story, and the choices only you can make.

Music Video Cuts

Need a quick cut on a music video? Drop your performance takes and b-roll, add the track, and Assist builds a multi-layer timeline in Resolve — full takes on dedicated tracks, b-roll woven in, synced to the song. You still pick the hero moments, trim the fat, and grade the look. We just get you out of the blank timeline.

  • Reads bins like Full Take 1, Full Take 2, and b-roll pools
  • Aligns layers to your music track
  • One click to generate — unlimited refinement in Resolve

Reels Cloner

Bring a reference reel and your footage. Assist studies rhythm and pacing, then maps your clips into a similar flow — a draft you can push, pull, and make yours.

🎵

Beat Edit

Montage energy without manual marker hell. Transients and musical phrasing drive cut points so you can focus on performance and story beats instead of frame-by-frame clicking.

🎙

AI Editor

Interview-led and dialogue-driven projects: transcribe, analyze, and assemble a narrative-first timeline. Assist proposes structure; you keep the director's cut.
