What makes this different

The other option is
hiring someone.

A freelancer per video
Slice of Life
✕ $250–600 every video. The bill scales with how often you post
✓ $99 a month, not per video — less than a quarter of one video, whether you post once or every week
✕ Days, behind whoever else is in their queue
✓ Back in minutes — film today, post today
✕ Brief it, wait, then pay for a revision round. Likely a different editor next time
✓ You approve every cut — change anything yourself, before it renders

FAQ

Common questions.

Getting started
Any video you shoot on your iPhone, DSLR, or action cam. The best results come from a mix of talking-to-camera a-roll and b-roll of what's happening around you — but even a-roll only works fine.
No. Even a handful of b-roll clips makes a big difference. Slice will use what you have and fill the rest with your a-roll. The more variety you give it, the better the cuts — but it works with whatever you filmed.
Clips under 2 seconds are skipped automatically. For a-roll, 30 seconds to a few minutes is ideal. For b-roll, 5–15 seconds per shot gives the best material to cut with.
Video: MP4, MOV, M4V, AVI, MKV, MTS, M2TS, and WEBM. You can also drop in photos (JPG, PNG, HEIC, WEBP) — they become smooth Ken Burns b-roll. If your camera shot it, it almost certainly works.
Not yet — Slice of Life is Mac only for now (Apple Silicon, macOS 13+). Join the waitlist and we'll email you the moment a Windows version is ready.
Yes. Alongside the app we run a done-for-you editing service — you send us the footage, an editor cuts it, and the finished vlog comes back in 24 hours. Monthly plans start at $595, and your first video is free. See how it works.
The output
Yes. Captions are off by default — flip the toggle in the configure screen to burn them directly into the video so they show on every platform without uploading a separate file. When captions are on, an SRT sidecar also exports alongside, so you can upload it to YouTube or use it in your editor.
The app scores every clip for quality — brightness, sharpness, and clarity of speech. Clips that are too dark, blurry, or very short get filtered automatically. Before it builds, the review screen lets you add any clip back, reorder, drop, or rotate clips — and re-render the same footage later and your changes are remembered.
Technical
Your video files never leave your Mac. Transcription and video assembly run entirely on your device. A small number of image frames (not your full video) are sent to Anthropic's AI for clip analysis and b-roll matching — the same way a photo editing app might send a thumbnail for analysis. Frames are not stored or used for training.
A typical daily vlog renders in 3–8 minutes on Apple Silicon. 4K is slower than 1080p. Re-edits skip the AI analysis step so they're faster, but still take a few minutes to encode.
Editing & export
Yes — the done screen's Export XML button offers Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, and DaVinci Resolve, each with its own import steps. A-roll and b-roll land on separate tracks, all source clips referenced. Open it, refine it, done.
Yes. The Edit button on the results screen reopens your cut in the review screen with everything as you left it — reorder or swap clips, fix caption wording, add music, adjust color and framing, then rebuild. The AI analysis is reused, so it costs no credits and goes straight to the encode. Pacing and orientation are set when a Slice is built, so changing those means starting a new one.
Cost & credits
$99 a month, with a 7-day free trial. There is one plan and every feature is in it — no tiers, nothing held back. A card is required to start the trial; cancel before day 7 and you're not charged. Annual billing is available at checkout for $990 a year, which is two months free.
Each edit uses a small amount of AI processing, and the app shows that as a credit count so nothing can quietly run up a bill. A typical day's vlog costs 1–2 credits, and your plan refreshes every month — in practice, even people who vlog every day don't get near the limit. If you ever do, email us.
