ReelDeckStudio

Keep the source attached all the way to showtime.

For commentary, explainer, essay, and live creators: capture what matters while you browse, mark the exact moment, and build a cited Creator Script around your point of view. Then export the handoff or cue the rundown live.

ReelDeck organizes evidence and production intent. Your judgment, voice, and rights decisions stay yours.

Quick Capture saves the current page or selection directly to Library, a collection, or an active Creator Script.

ReelDeck Studio at a glance

What it does
Turns the videos, articles and AI answers you save into a Creator Script, a cited plan for your video or live show, with each source and moment still attached.
Who it's for
Commentary, reaction, explainer, essay and live creators who gather sources before they make something.
What you bring
Links you save while you browse, through the Chrome extension, Quick Capture, a pasted link or a pasted AI answer.
What you get
On Pro, Creator Scripts with exact video ranges, your own commentary and citations, exported as a ReelDeck file or a CapCut helper package (script, cut list, commentary, captions, citations, manifest). On Studio, Live Run: a private controller plus a clean output for OBS, and one-click capture from Claude and Google AI Overviews.
Limits
ReelDeck doesn't render your finished video or judge fair use, and not every site can be captured in one click. Free lets you save and organize (up to 5 collections) and try a guided Creator Script preview. Building and exporting scripts needs Pro. Pro $7/month or $69/year · Studio $12/month or $120/year.
The moat is not saving a link. It is preserving what that link becomes.

ReelDeck carries provenance, selected moments, creator commentary, citations, and output intent through one production chain—without pretending the software authored the idea.

From source material to a defensible show.

The workflow is designed around what a creator actually has to hand to an editor or cue during a live production.

  1. 01 · Capture
    Save the page or selection in context.

    Quick Capture routes it to Library, a collection, or the active Creator Script.

  2. 02 · Range
    Keep the exact moment that supports the point.

    Review playable sources and preserve the original URL, provider, range, and citation.

  3. 03 · Script
    Write the creator's point beside the evidence.

    Order beats and specify narration, commentary placement, audio intent, and private notes.

  4. 04 · Output
    Move structure into editing or live production.

    Export ReelDeck JSON or a CapCut helper package, or open an OBS-ready Live Run.

Inspect every handoff before you sign up.

Open a current Creator Script, source manifest, edit helper package, and OBS rundown. The example uses public-domain NASA Goddard demonstration sources and is clearly labeled as illustrative—not customer proof.

The same two sourced beats remain aligned across every artifact.

The library still earns its keep.

Reading, organizing, AI-answer capture, and shared viewing remain useful inputs. They sit behind the source-to-show promise because the production chain is where ReelDeck is most distinct.
