SUNDAYS MEDIA · Lab · Edit Lab
It watches every frame. Then it directs the edit.
Drop a folder of raw footage. Edit Lab reviews all of it, picks the moments that matter, and builds a cut with a story — as a finished video or an editable timeline.

Watch
Every clip gets watched. All of it, not a sample. The best moments are marked down to the exact frames.

Watch
Every clip gets watched. All of it, not a sample. The best moments are marked down to the exact frames.
Works today - 02
Edit
A rough cut with a structure: opening, build, peak, ending. Shots vary, strong moments get time, sentences are never cut mid-word.
Works today - 03
Music & sound
Cuts land on the beat. Live sound fades in and out. Music carries the moment across scenes.
Works today - 04
Effects & transitions
Effects with a budget, not on every cut. A full transitions library is next.
In testing - 05
Stabilization
Shaky fragments are found and stabilized automatically.
In testing - 06
Color
One adjustment layer with color correction now, grading by reference next.
In testing
Not another auto-cut
Auto-cut is not editing.
Most automatic editing trims silences and drops captions on top. Edit Lab makes the decisions an editor makes.
| Auto-cut tools | Edit Lab |
|---|---|
| Trims pauses and silences | Watches 100% of the footage before the first cut |
| Cuts on a fixed rhythm | Picks moments, then builds a structure around them |
| One version, take it or leave it | Proposes 2–3 story structures to choose from |
| Works on a talking head | Works on hundreds of clips from a real shoot |
| Starts over for every change | Rebuilds a new version in 10–20 minutes |

Versions
One shoot. As many films as you need.
Edit Lab knows the footage and the people in it. Ask for another version and it rebuilds the cut around a different person, length or format.
Two ways to work
Built for people with more footage than time.
- 01 · Creators, businesses, event teams
Edit for me
Send footage and a short brief, get finished videos. Talking head to finished reel, recaps while the event is still in the news, versions for every speaker, sponsor and channel.

Tools for editors
Start from a structured rough cut instead of an empty timeline. Get an editable project (XML) for your editing software, adjust the cut — and the system adapts to your changes.
From real projects
- 210 clips
- a timeline in about 1.5 hours of machine time
- 451 clips
- a 27-minute film, 363 shots
For platforms
Building a video product? Let’s talk.
Edit Lab runs as a pipeline, not a plugin: footage review, edit direction, versions and delivery. We are open to licensing and partnership with platforms that want real-footage editing in their product.

Built by a studio
Edit Lab is built by SUNDAYS MEDIA — a production studio that has shot for Hurts, Imagine Dragons, McDonald’s and Legoland. We built it for our own work first.
Need more than editing? We shoot, build websites and run campaigns.
