Software for the people who cut wedding films.
In geology, a protolith is the original rock — the material a stone was made from, before heat and pressure turned it into something else.
Post-production runs on hours of footage and a song. Sorting the usable takes, finding the moment inside each clip, putting every cut on the beat — it is careful work, and most of it is repetition.
We build tools that do that groundwork and hand back a timeline, in the editing software you already use.
Which take carries the moment, how long to hold it, when to let the music turn — that is the craft, and it belongs to the editor. Our tools learn how you cut rather than replacing how you cut, and everything they propose can be overruled.
Protolith is a small software company. Our first product is in private testing with partner studios, with general release planned for 2027.
