I am doing my first video from the demo project, the 60-sec recording cut to 37 seconds, and took like an hour to process - is that usually how it works or will it get better with every new project? Kudos on the release, this is something I was actually looking for!

I am interested in this product and looks really good. Going to try it out soon. Couple of things I wanted to let you know: 1) I was in the onboarding phase, I was not allowed to Skip (kept hitting button but no action) and when I said generate script, I could see it being written in the background but there was no way for the onboarding screen and overlay to close. I had to quit the entire app and start it back again. I am on MacOS Golden Gate.

Marvin, keeping the old edit versions while you give notes on a new cut is a useful detail. Much easier to decide whether a change helped when you can go back to the earlier one. Congrats on the launch!
