I've been following Marcos's youtube channel and it's so great to see that they've finally found their thing. Looks like an awesome product that people actually want. Well done.

#12I have mostly Macs in my workflow so not an issue for me, but its good to have that plainly stated if so.
Being able to edit a long video to pull out different speakers segments automatically or do automatic edits of speaker transitions would be great- I'll give it a try and see what scenarios are best suited for our use cases...

#14Here's my thinking as a SaaS founder: when I launch a product, I don't need a video every month. So a monthly pricing makes me do this little calculation every time: "do I need a video this month? nah. Then I'll wait. I lose the early-bird price, but I still net out cheaper." And since there's no yearly option, there's nothing pulling me into the early plan either.
What I would jump on is a launch offer. Something like XXX credits for a good price, enough that it feels like 3 videos over the course of a year. Even if I never use them all (very likely, honestly), I'd buy it. Credits sit there and wait for me, a subscription just quietly bills me for months I don't need it.
Hope that makes sense :)

#15I assume using Swift means cross-platform support is tertiary at best? I have mostly Macs in my workflow so not an issue for me, but its good to have that plainly stated if so.

Long videos with different speakers is a core use case that we are trying to optimize for, please let us know how it goes for you!

#16This looks great! Have you thought about dropping the 'subscription'-part and 'just' selling credits instead?

#17Love to see it. We have been experimenting with https://github.com/ronak-create/FableCut , how is this similar? How is it different?
It's similar in a sense that we're both exposing a mcp server to let claude runs editing tools, and also a traditional video editor interface.
It's different in terms of how you run it. FableCut requires you to install node, ffmpeg, and run a local server and connect to it via Chromium-based browser, whereas Palmier Pro is a native Mac App.
I don't know enough about the feature parity to comment on it. How is your experience with FableCut?

It makes sense! We are still early in experimenting the pricing and would want to reduce user's overhead in thinking about pricing/credits as much as possible.
