Timeliner
Timeliner for creators

Brief, review, and approve every cut from your phone

Built for creators with 1–4 editors and a weekly upload schedule. Stop scrubbing rough cuts in the YouTube app and writing '0:48 cut tighter' in a note app you'll lose tomorrow.

Reality check

Sound familiar?

1

Editor sends a Drive link in DMs; you scrub on your phone, write feedback in Notes, and forget to send it back until they ask three days later

2

You have v3, v3-final, v3-actually-final, and v3-with-the-thumbnail-change - and no one knows which is the one going up Tuesday

3

You hired a 2nd editor and your weekly schedule got slower, not faster, because half your time is re-explaining feedback

4

You're 2 weeks late on this month's brand-deal video because feedback bounced back four times for the same fix

5

When you go on vacation, the channel goes silent because no one else can answer 'is this approved?'

Before / after

Before / after, in your typical week

Three concrete moments where Timeliner replaces a hack you’ve normalized.

Before

Editor DMs you a Drive link; you scrub on the YouTube app and write '0:48 cut tighter' in a note

With Timeliner

Editor uploads to Timeliner; you tap the timestamp on your phone and leave a voice note

Before

Editor doesn't know if your last 3 messages are nice-to-have or blockers

With Timeliner

Each comment is a discrete action; tasks move from In Revision → Approved in one tap

Before

Hire a 2nd editor and lose 2 hours/week onboarding them to your folder system

With Timeliner

New editor sees their assigned cuts, due dates, and feedback history on day one

How it helps

How Timeliner helps

Phone-first review

Tap the timestamp, leave a voice note or text comment. Editor sees it on the timeline. Works on the train, on the couch, on the way to a shoot.

One status per video

To Do → In Progress → In Revision → Approved → Posted. Your editor opens Timeliner and instantly knows what to work on. No more 'what should I do today?' DMs.

Editor assignment + due dates

Assign each cut to a specific editor with a deadline. Hire your 2nd or 3rd editor without quadrupling your management time.

Approve in one tap, publish that night

When the cut is right, hit Approve. Editor gets a push notification, exports the master, and you're publishing - same day.

Recommended planStudio$89/mo5 seats · 3TB

Studio at $89/mo covers most channels - 5 seats is you plus an editor, a thumbnail designer and a script writer, with 3TB pooled and 1080p streaming. Move up to Agency ($199/mo, 10 seats, 4K) when you want the content calendar, AI-generated titles, tags and captions, and the thumbnail picker feeding your publishing schedule - no re-platforming, and extra seats are $10 each in between.

I tried to scale from 2 editors to 4 last year and burned out trying to manage it in DMs. With Timeliner I run a 4-editor team from my phone in 20 minutes a day. We haven't missed a Tuesday upload in 6 months.
