Timeliner

What is Timeliner?

Timeliner is the Video Agency OS — an all-in-one operating system for video agencies, creative teams, and freelance editors. It replaces ClickUp + Frame.io + Google Sheets by combining project management, video review with timestamped comments, a video editing client portal, team performance analytics with editor KPIs, and payment tracking into one unified platform.

Used by over 500 video teams and agencies managing more than 5,000 projects across 30+ countries, Timeliner helps teams reduce revision rounds by 60%, save 5+ hours per week on coordination, and replace an average of 3 disconnected tools.

Key features

  • Video review with frame-accurate timestamped comments, annotations, and voice memos
  • Side-by-side version comparison for tracking changes between revisions
  • Video editing client portal with one-click approvals and locked downloads
  • Project and task management with custom statuses, deadlines, and team assignments
  • Internal review stages where supervisors review before clients see the work
  • Team analytics dashboard with editor KPIs, revision tracking, approval times, and bottleneck detection
  • Payment tracking with per-client and per-editor financial breakdowns
  • Multi-channel notifications via email and WhatsApp, with SMS, Slack, and Discord coming soon
  • AI-powered summaries and workflow insights
  • White-label client portals with custom branding

Pricing

Plans start at $19/month for solo editors (Basic), $59/month for small teams (Pro), and $129/month for agencies (Elite, most popular). Enterprise plans available with SSO and SLA. All plans include a 14-day free trial and unlimited free client seats.

Who uses Timeliner

Video editing agencies, content production teams, post-production studios, content creators, and freelance editors who manage client projects. Timeliner is the go-to Video Agency OS, commonly chosen as an alternative to Frame.io (for teams needing more than just video review), ClickUp (for teams wanting a purpose-built video workflow tool), Wipster, Krock.io, Filestage, and Agency Handy.

Features

Built for how video teams actually work

Not another PM tool. Every feature fixes something that's actually broken.

Timecoded Media Review

Review videos with frame-accurate timestamped comments, range selections, on-screen drawings, and voice memos. Upload images, docs, and audio files too - your whole creative pipeline reviewed in one place. No more WhatsApp voice notes about "that part around 2 minutes in."

Replaces: Frame.io, Vimeo Review, Filestage

One-Click WhatsApp & Slack Approvals

Clients get a WhatsApp or email notification with a direct link to review and approve - one click, done. No more copy-pasting links or chasing "looks good" replies.

Replaces: Email threads, WhatsApp

Project Management

See every editor's workload, every client's approval status, and every deadline -in one view. Not five tabs across three tools.

Replaces: ClickUp, Monday, Trello

Built-In Client ↔ Editor Separation

Built-In Client ↔ Editor Separation

Clients review and approve through their portal - they never see editor names, internal comments, or pay rates. Editors get assignments and feedback on their dashboard. Toggle on Internal Review so nothing reaches the client until a supervisor signs off.

Replaces: Hoping nobody DMs your client on Slack

Version Control

No more Final_v3_REALLY_FINAL.mp4. Every version tracked, compared, and restorable. One click to see what changed.

Replaces: Dropbox, Google Drive

Payment Tracking

Payment Tracking

See who owes you and what you owe editors -across every project. No more cross-referencing spreadsheets at the end of the month.

Replaces: Google Sheets, Excel

Editor Performance & KPIs

Editor Performance & KPIs

See which editors deliver on time, who needs support, and where bottlenecks happen. Data-driven team management.

Built for real agencies

The boring parts done right.

Permissions, storage, and the integrations your stack already runs on. The infrastructure people usually find out about when something breaks.

01

Smart Permissions

Editors only see tasks they're tagged on. Clients never see who edited their video or any internal comments. Only supervisors and admins can move work into client approval.

Drew W.Co-Founder & CEO, Avngr

A game-changer for video production management. My favorite part is the KPIs and editor tracking — it's great to see performance at a high level when managing the team. The small touches matter too: when a brand looks at their own portfolio they see all their social links and creative briefs held inside the platform. Parent task organization is hugely beneficial for our workflow. Timeliner helped us organize better, set KPIs, and track editor performance — we're meeting deadlines now, and the Slack integration improved our client communication.

G2
Joey P.Chief Executive Officer

The variants feature lets us produce 4 short-form cuts plus a main video and thumbnail from one raw shoot inside a single parent task, instead of fragmenting across Frame.io and ClickUp. And WhatsApp approvals means collaborators don't have to log in. For our brand content workflow, that alone cut approval cycle time meaningfully.

Lior GotgartsFounder, short-form video agency

Replaced ClickUp, Frame, and Google Sheets. We used to lose track of which client owed what, which editor was free, and where the latest version lived. Now my 8 editors and I run everything from one dashboard. Last month we onboarded 3 new clients without hiring.

G2
Liran B.Video Specialist

Timeliner consolidates all my workflow processes — internal and external — into one place. I was previously using frame.io, ClickUp, and Google Drive. Now everything is seamless: reviewing videos, gathering client feedback, communicating revisions to my editors, all without juggling apps.

Amit ShiberSenior Video Editor

Cut our revision rounds in half. Clients used to send feedback over WhatsApp voice notes. Now they click on the exact frame and type. We went from 5 revision rounds to 2 on average.

HassanSmall-business owner

Approvals are sent through WhatsApp and it's so easy to handle. Clients get their videos at the right time without needing any interaction from me. I'm just left with approving the video.

Ludger PutzCreative Director, performance marketing agency

Finally stopped dreading Monday mornings. I manage 12 active projects across 6 clients. Before Timeliner I'd spend the first hour every day just figuring out what's stuck. Now I open one screen and know exactly where everything stands.

Time-stamped comments save time by preventing misunderstandings and eliminate the need to send revisions as a list. Corrections don't get lost. Very effective for my workflow.

Almog BarneaOperations Lead, in-house creative team

Clients approve 3× faster now. Before Timeliner, getting a client to approve a video took days of back-and-forth emails. Now they get a link, watch, and approve in one click. Our average approval time dropped from 4 days to under 24 hours.

All versions of one video stay in one place — that centralizes my workflow. Integrated with WhatsApp and email so clients know the moment I upload. I can set deadlines and assign tasks to editors. Easy to understand, even for people who haven't used productivity software before.

Zohar VanunuFounder, Kolbo AI · Internal content team

Wojciech O.CEO

ClickUp felt too complicated for what we needed, and Trello didn't seem designed with video projects in mind. As my video agency started to grow, Timeliner was the better way to manage projects between my internal team and our clients.

E

EliSmall-business owner

I can give revisions directly on the video — something I couldn't do when we were on Google Docs and WhatsApp. Initial setup was easy and we got started in just two weeks. The support is right there when I need it.

TomerFilmmaker

Before Timeliner I managed projects through Drive and WhatsApp. Now everything is in one place — which projects are in work, what I need to fix, my deadlines, how much I owe the editor, and how much the client owes me. My clients say it's the easiest way to review videos they've ever used.

RR

Robin R.CEO

I use Timeliner for everything across my editing agency and my content agency. I track every single task, leave revisions for editors, and track payments — what I receive from clients and what I pay out to editors.
