Doza Assist is a free AI editor's assistant for any content with spoken words. It transcribes locally, surfaces story beats and soundbites, builds narrative sequences, and exports straight to Final Cut Pro. No cloud. No subscription. Everything runs on your Mac.

Why Doza Assist

  • Most AI editing tools treat your footage like a database. You search, you get results, you cut. Doza Assist is different. It understands narrative, not just keywords. It reads the whole conversation, finds the arc, and helps you assemble the story.

  • Finds emotional beats, narrative arcs, and editorial moments. Other tools find keywords. Doza Assist finds meaning.

  • No subscription. No trial. No account. MIT licensed and built in the open. Your tools shouldn't be a recurring expense.

  • Documentary, podcast, testimonial, deposition, speech, panel, news. If your footage has people talking, Doza Assist is built for you.

  • Documentary films, corporate video, podcasts, news, speeches, panel discussions, legal depositions, customer testimonials, training content. If someone is talking on camera and you need to find what matters, Doza Assist does the heavy lifting.

  • Transcription, AI analysis, everything runs locally. No audio or video is ever uploaded. No cloud processing. No data collection. The client sharing link is temporary and stops when you close the app.
