The whole sequence at a glance. Move clips instantly with Quick Keys or organize visually with the Timeline Tool—no gaps to fix later..

The Problem with Traditional Timelines

Horizontal, ruler‑based editors are powerful—but they create friction for high‑volume work.

Cumbersome Setup

Dragging in 100s of clips rarely works cleanly. Traditional editors dump them into bins or create messy timelines you must fix manually.

Gaps & Ripple Deletes

Trim a clip → a gap appears → now you must ripple delete. Multiply by dozens of clips.

Fiddly Reordering

Rearranging and dragging between tracks, checking snapping, repairing overlaps—easy to break your flow.

Audio De‑sync Risk

Linked A/V can still slip or be unlinked—beginners lose time re‑aligning audio.

Constant Zooming

Long timelines require zooming and scrolling just to see or move clips.

ClipBatch Works Differently

A playlist‑style editor designed for sequencing speed and batch output.

Instant Timeline Setup

Drop in 100s of clips and your timeline is ready instantly. Auto-arranged in sequence—no bins, no gaps, no setup required.

Vertical Bars, Not Rulers

View far more clips at once than in a traditional timeline. Rearrange visually like a playlist, and scroll vertically if you’re working with hundreds.

Continuous by Design

Trim in place and the sequence stays seamless—no gaps appear, no ripple‑delete cleanup.

1‑Step Reorder

Swap positions of one or multiple clips at once instantly. No track juggling or accidental overlaps.

Audio Always in Sync

If your clip has audio, trimming video trims audio automatically.

Drag in hundreds of clips — instantly arranged as vertical bars you can see all at once.

Fewer Steps. Faster Results.

In traditional editors, every trim and reorder adds cleanup steps. Multiply that across dozens of clips and you’re spending minutes where ClipBatch takes seconds.

Minutes

Traditional editors

Small inefficiencies stack up fast — ripple deletes, reorders, constant cleanup.

Seconds

ClipBatch

Trim-in-place (no gaps) + 1-step reorders keep everything moving instantly.
