yeah, it's hard to have verification loops for things like "does this looks good?" / "is it engaging" for sure
try both products and see yourself :)
- models are good at precise edits, we have an internal benchmark for the same
- plan mode / agent mode is something that'd be helpful in deciding / executing
just upload your clips, copy paste the above text into cardboard and see :)
i think it'd do a good job at it.
pricing is something i believe we'd have to experiment with as we go on. i'd prefer a simpler pricing always.
yeah we just ask a lot more questions to user to begin with

target customers usually fall under one of these - marketers / creators / founders
