FAQ & Knowledge Base
Answers for agencies, SaaS teams, and creators evaluating white-label video post-production.
How much does it cost to outsource B2B podcast post-production?
Wholesale rates start at $997 for a single pilot edit and $2,500/month for an ongoing retainer covering roughly 8 strategic edits — agencies typically mark that up 50–100% when reselling to their own clients. Exact scope depends on episode length and clip volume, confirmed on a strategy call.
What's the difference between a traditional editor and a retention-focused white-label studio?
A traditional editor cuts footage to look clean. A retention-focused studio makes structural pacing decisions — where the hook lands, where a jump-cut removes a dead second, where captions carry the point on mute — based on where viewers actually drop off, not just aesthetics. White-label means that work ships under your brand, not the studio's.
How does vertical video editing affect customer acquisition cost (CAC)?
Platforms reward watch-time and completion rate with cheaper, wider organic and paid distribution. A vertical edit paced to hold viewers past the first two seconds earns more free reach per view than a flat, unedited cut — which lowers the cost of reaching the same audience, even before any ad spend changes. It's a distribution-efficiency lever, not a guaranteed CAC number.
What counts as a "strategic edit" versus a basic cut?
A basic cut trims footage to length. A strategic edit applies a specific retention hypothesis — pacing, hook structure, sound design, caption timing — built around where a video's actual audience drops off, then checks the result against a QC pass before delivery.
How does the 24–48h SLA actually work?
It starts once we have your raw footage or screen recording and brand guide in hand — not from when you first reach out. Short-form clips and reels run on the 24–48h window; long-form edits run 72–96h. Priority turnaround for tighter deadlines is available on the Enterprise Pod tier.
How does the NDA and confidentiality process work?
We sign a mutual NDA before any footage changes hands and operate under a double-blind protocol afterward — we never contact your client directly, and we never disclose the working relationship without your permission.
What's the difference between the Pilot and a Retainer?
The Pilot is a single wholesale edit with one revision round, delivered in 5 business days — built to test the fit with no ongoing commitment. A Retainer is an ongoing monthly pod (for example, 8 strategic edits a month) with the full 24–48h SLA, a dedicated editor and account manager, and a locked brand style guide.
What raw footage or files do you need to start?
Whatever you already have — a raw video file, a Drive or Loom link, or a podcast recording — dropped into your dedicated secure portal, along with your brand's caption and music style guide once it's locked in. No formal creative brief required.
Do you work with agencies, or directly with brands too?
Both. Most volume runs through agency partners who resell finished work under their own brand and keep 50–100% of the margin. We also work directly with SaaS founders, marketing leaders, and coaches who want a dedicated pod without an intermediary.
