What First Pass is

A suite of tools, built to supercharge your edits.

Not a generation tool. First Pass doesn't invent your shots or hand back a video you didn't make — it takes the hours of preparation between the card offload and the first cut and does them in a pass. Roughly ten times the efficiency before the edit even starts.

Final Cut Pro

Final Cut Pro integration

XML round-trip · no plug-in to install

Native

First Pass hands Final Cut a library that is already organised — so the first thing you do in the timeline is cut, not sort.

Premiere Pro export is in build — same structure, same round-trip.

RoomSort

Shipping now

Reads every clip in a shoot, groups it by room and scene, and lays out the timeline. The prep that used to eat an afternoon happens in one pass.

Magic Wand

Late October

One button turns a still into a finished day-to-night. The prompting work is already done — you're not buying credits to guess your way to a frame you can actually use.

Our mantra

We're not here to replace videographers with AI. We're here to hand them a sharper weapon.

Other tools generate the whole video and call it done. First Pass works with your creativity instead of standing in for it — so the result is still yours, just finished sooner.

The road to 1.0

A toolbox for the next
generation of creators

Join the editors who'd rather cut than prompt. One button does the work you'd otherwise buy credits to keep re-trying — so every number below is finished work you can hand a client.
