SwitchLogSees, not just reads
It looks at the picture (shake, focus, scenery, repeated shots) and listens to the sound (laughter, screams, silence), not only the words.
Product
The editor that starts from the raw footage
Drop everything you shot. SwitchLog watches the picture, listens to the sound, keeps what an editor would keep, and finishes the video and the shorts on your Mac.
Inside the app
Four screens, in the order you meet them.
- 1
Quick Start: drop, pick a format and a genre, press
- 2
Choose which videos to make: every stretch with its reasons, its summary and its first words; merge two or split one on the strip
- 3
The cut, with the preview, the timeline and the captions
- 4
Shorts from a finished cut: reactions counted, one subject, a clean ending
How it works
Drop. Press. Post.
Three steps, one decision that is yours: the format and the genre. Everything else is the engine's job, and when it is unsure it falls back to a safe default.
Drop
Drag in the recording or the day's files. Several files are joined in the order they were shot.
Press
Choose long-form or shorts, pick the genre: gaming, talk, travel, food, beauty. Press once.
Post
Export the video and its shorts with captions, sound effects, music and your intro and outro. A title is suggested too.
What's different
What's different
Most tools take a finished video and read its transcript. SwitchLog takes the raw footage and treats it the way an editor does.
Whole recording, long cut
It builds the long-form cut in order first, then takes the shorts out of that cut. Not a bag of clips.
Your names, spelled right
Register your channel's names and nicknames once; the captions spell them your way.
Sound by rule, not by chance
Effects and music are placed on a per-genre budget from your own packs: about five a minute for gaming, three for talk, fewer for the rest.
Built from real editors' cuts
For each genre we matched real creators' raw footage against what they published, second by second, and turned what they keep and where they open and close into rules: a conversation whole, a round through its reveal, the first bite through the verdict.
Stays on your Mac
No upload, no per-minute billing, and the whole pipeline up to the preview is free without an account.
Genres, and what each one protects
Each genre has its own selection profile, caption style and sound budget. They are kept apart, never averaged.
- GamingThe reaction and the flow of the round
- TalkA conversation as one piece, indoors or on the street
- Travel & VlogThe view, the moment of arrival, the shape of the day
- FoodThe first bite and the verdict
- BeautyThe product reveal and the finished look
Nothing leaves your Mac. Not the footage, not the audio, not the transcript.
The server does three things: sign you in, confirm your subscription and hand your profile file to your Mac. The app holds no key beyond the server's address.
With Apple silicon, all of this now finishes inside a laptop.
- Vision and speech models run locally, once downloaded
- Sign in with Apple only when you export; no account before that
- Usage data only if you switch it on, and never a file, a path or a transcript
