Headphones on, timeline in focus. The phone waits.
Editing and rendering means hours of headphones and screens: every interruption breaks the rhythm from one cut to the next. Brands, YouTubers and agencies looking for an editor call three profiles the same day. The project goes to whoever confirms first — often before your render even finishes.

What Signal does
Signal replies in <10 s with a pro text: received, reply within 24 h. AI gathers format, footage volume, deadline and use (YouTube, ads, internal), then offers a 20-minute scoping call. You pick up the brief during the export, not mid-color-grading.

FAQ
Video editors: your questions
"It's due tomorrow" emergencies are common. Does Signal help?
Yes, exactly: AI detects the urgency (explicit deadline, screening) and escalates it to you immediately with the recap. You accept or decline in one word, during your export. No more late discoveries of "I called last night, nobody answered".
My clients use email and Frame.io. Does the phone matter?
First contact matters: a YouTuber with 500k subs tests three editors, and the one who answers in 10 seconds by text often takes the whole series. Then, yes, everything happens on your tools. Signal secures the entrance; your tools do the rest.
What does a missed call represent for me?
An average $600 project, often a video series — so $2,000–3,000 over a quarter. At 12 missed calls a month and 25% conversion, the order of magnitude runs around $1,800 a month. That's the price of silence during an edit.
Can the AI assess footage volume?
It collects what the client can say (target final length, number of sequences, shooting status) and passes it to you verbatim. The fine estimate stays your craft — you do it on the calendar-booked scoping call. You start from facts, not impressions.
I work nomadically, from cafés. Does it work?
Better than voicemail: the text goes out even on unstable 4G, headphones on. You read the recap between two cuts, quietly. The client thinks you're hyper-organized — you're just tooled up.
