Hello everyone at Product Hunt! I’m David de Min, CEO & Founder of Velapp. The team and I are extremely excited to have been hunted today! We’ll be available here all day to answer any questions you may have. Velapp is worlds first live video editor. After an epic journey on motorbikes around the Himalayas with my brother, I ended up having over 300 hours of footage! As you can imagine it took FOREVER to edit! That’s when the idea hit me, ‘If only I could have edited the best parts, as I was recording it. Then automatically showing me the best moments’ The idea is just like memories; we always remember the best parts of our lives most vividly – and that is exactly how Velapp works. As you shoot, you tell Velapp where the best moments are. The better you like something, the harder you press the 3D touch button on the iPhone. (we have a slider for backwards compatible phones) Then you use a slider to show how much you want to playback. Editing as you shoot, means your video is ready to be uploaded the moment you finish. For example when filming a sport, your pet’s antics, your baby’s first footsteps or a firework display, you tend record for longer. With Velapp you’re choosing the highlights while you film. So a ten-minute clip can be INSTANTLY cut to just show just one, two or however many minutes you want WITHOUT losing the original! Immediately ready share with your friends. There is no ‘second stage’ editing. After our beta testing we have discovered many use cases for Velapp and we are very much look forward to hearing how Velapp could save you time! Check out our video too

@daviddemin very cool idea! Wondering how something like this would work for the tonnes of @GoPro movies I've got laying around on my harddrive as well.. Would this work as a desktop app in the future too? Where you replicate the same behaviour only then when you just watch the footage from your hard drive? Would potentially make editing all the older footage (and your Himalaya adventure) a possibility as well.

@jcvangent Hi Hans, thanks for the great feedback! Using a GoPor was the exact reason was what inspired me to conceptualise and develop Velapp! So yes, in the future we will definitely be incorporating a way to not only Velapp your old footage, but use the core concept of Velapp while you film with you action cameras with a device we currently are designing. Let's keep in touch as I'd love to show you what we're working on! We will eventually have a desktop version that seamlessly integrates with mobile

@vmarks Hi Mark, yes we've got an big list on our roadmap and our AI that we'll be developing will integrating stabilisation as an option... but right now the first version of Velapp is to just instantly find your best moments :)

Thanks @vmarks Canny.io was hunted a few days ago and seems a useful way to gauge future feature requests and showing users what is in the pipeline

Is there any plan to open the finished videos up to other platforms? Seeing only Twitter and YouTube as the available options, I'm curious what exactly comes with the premium account.

@steveshugg Hi Steve, when you press the export button the video automatically goes to your camera roll. The next page within Velapp just gives you quick links to share within the app. The upgrade just removes the watermark, and you'll be able to export for any length of time :)

Ah. Finally I was able to use it. I am still trying to figure out, how do I extract bits and pieces of my video and then stitch it together. Say, I want first 5 seconds, then 20-24 seconds and the last 5 seconds worth of my video. How do I do it? The control on the right gave me a feeling that I was cutting the video from the end, instead of the start. The idea is great and the app looks superrr.

@sridhar_kondoji Hi Sri, thanks for reaching out to us! Best easiest way to use Velapp is to rate WHILE you're filming. So when you're filming and something interesting happens, press harder on the 3D Touch screen (or slide higher if you have an older version of iPhone) then when you've finished recording - the slider on the right gives you an instant way to shorten you video WITHOUT having to edit! So imagine you film for 2 minutes, use the slider to show the best 20 seconds for example and Velapp will AUTOMATICALLY show you the best parts 😊

@daviddemin that's awesome. I tried your suggestion and it works. I am now so excited to use this for my next recording. Here is what I would like to see. A) smoothen the process of switching between important parts of video. B) by the time I realize, it is important, I may have lost few precious seconds. So you have to account for that. C) while replaying the video, if I get one more chance to rate some parts of the video to retain it, that would great. Thx

@sridhar_kondoji that's fantastic to hear Sri 😁 This is our first version and we have many other features we want to develop, and yes you're right those features would be awesome to add which are definitely on the list! We'll eventually add live automatic transitions - so your next clip has the option of fading into the next or maybe a different effect. And with the reaction time our algorithms are slightly adjusted to account for reaction delays - but I 100% agree with you. I'd like to develop a feature which lets you play with the rating lines so you can adjust after you've shot - or even better, re-rate that part of the video while you're watching back! Thanks so much for your feedback. Let's keep in touch as you've got some great ideas 🙌🏻

I must say this has an incredible potential. The idea of pressure pre-editing and selection-oriented outputting is genius from an User Experience point of view. I can easily see a sensitive hand controller that marks the editing highs and lows being attachable to any recording device (audio/podcasting too) and a myriad of options for UI/apps to support it. Way larger than mere in-app purchases, this could set up the whole scene for very cool supporting gadgetry. This can be indispensable and legit huge a thing. The UX itself can easily break off independently, away from Apple-only 3D Touch. It's a principle to various add-ons and pluggable hardware possibilities. I really hope you have this patented @jacquesvh.. \0/ Just while I'm writing this I can clearly see 7-10 different applications for the technology and an entire UX dreamscape. Done right, you may be responsible for an entire reboot in this sector. Do think big here! Nothing but love and excitement for Velapp mate. Sincere congratulations.
