Shak Studios is an Australian done-for-you video editing service that gives businesses and content creators an outsourced remote editing team through a credit-based subscription, where one editing credit equals one minute of edited video. It's built for companies that need a steady stream of on-brand video (interviews, testimonials, vlogs, talking-head clips, commercials and promos) without hiring a full-time editor, and each client gets a dedicated account manager who also oversees the editing team. Its main differentiator is the pay-per-minute Editing Credits model, letting you mix basic and pro edits and produce anything from a 15-second clip to a feature-length film from the same balance.

Descript is the podcast and video editor that thinks like a word processor. Edit by editing text, remove filler words automatically, clone your voice with Overdub, and collaborate with your team — all in one tool.
