Footage Cutlist
Watch a brand's own product footage (screen recording, product film), pick the moment that proves each line with the user, and render those picks as a product layer — free, local. survey.py turns footage into timestamped contact sheets + scene cuts + motion so the agent can actually look at it; the agent writes a cut list (beat → source window + framing); preview.py draws it as a review sheet the user corrects round by round; cut.py renders the approved list into a silent 1080x1920 layer with the creator's area left as a plate. Also frames footage as a filmed screen (keystone, bezel, handheld drift) with dissolves between beats, and takes still screenshots as sources. Use for any format that shows real product footage beside, between or instead of a creator (split-screen, screen inserts, walkthroughs).

Picking which moment of a customer's footage plays under which line is a judgement, not a formula. A position map ("beat 3 is 40% through the reel, so take the footage 40% through") was measured up to 5.7s off a person's picks on a reference build. So this capability does the free, mechanical parts and leaves the decision to the agent and the user:
