ClipthesisPersonal media asset management for video creators

Index, organise, and find your footage — fast.

Index Any Drive

Plug in an SD card, SSD, or NAS — Clipthesis scans for video files, extracts metadata, and generates thumbnails automatically.

Tags & Collections

Organise clips with tags, colour-coded tag groups, and curated collections. Mark groups as required to surface clips missing key metadata. Batch-tag on import or from the library grid.

Powerful Search & Filters

One search bar matches tags, filenames, and transcripts at once. Filter by tag, collection, drive, date filmed, duration, resolution, and more — and save presets for one-click access.

Local Transcription & Transcript Search

Whisper runs on your Mac to turn spoken audio into searchable text. Find quotes across your whole library or inside a single clip, then jump to the exact moment.

DaVinci Resolve Integration

Send clips straight to Resolve's Media Pool with tags transferred as keywords and optional sub-bin routing by tag group.

Offline-First

Everything runs locally with SQLite. No internet required — your library is always available.

Keyboard-Driven

Navigate the grid, preview clips, tag in bulk, and send to Resolve — all without touching the mouse.
