# Wideframe

> Wideframe is an AI coworker for professional video editors that automates the tedious prep work - searching, labeling, organizing, and sequencing footage - that takes up roughly 75% of an editor's time outside the timeline. Built for Mac on Apple Silicon, it runs entirely on-device, reads and writes native Adobe Premiere Pro project files, and lets editors describe what they need in plain language. The result: hours of prep work compressed into minutes, and editors freed up to actually edit.
