Why most creators overpay for video editing (and how the unlimited model fixes it)
Ran the numbers on freelance editing rates for a while before starting xdclip, and the math never made sense for creators posting consistently.
Per-video pricing punishes volume. If you're posting daily shorts or even 2-3 long-form videos a week, you're either paying per-edit rates that add up fast, or you're stuck with one freelancer who becomes a bottleneck the moment they get busy.
The fix we landed on: a flat $100/week rate for unlimited requests (up to 10 minutes per video), each turned around in 3 hours. You queue as many edits as you want and you're never doing napkin math on whether posting more content is 'worth it' cost-wise. It flips editing from a per-unit expense into a fixed cost — which is how it should be if you're serious about consistent output.
If you're a creator, streamer, or brand drowning in raw footage with no time to cut it — that's exactly the problem we built xdclip to solve. Long-form YouTube edits, short-form viral clips, branded social content, all under one plan.
