Audit where your editing time goes, and cut the slowest step

The problem

Editing is the number one time sink for small creators. Logging one week of editing usually shows one or two steps eating most of the time.

What AI does

AI ranks the steps in your own editing log by the time they take and suggests practical ways to shorten the slowest ones. You try one change and measure the result yourself.

Time

Time: 5 minutes a day for a week, then 15 minutesTools: Google Sheets, ChatGPT

The steps, in short

  1. Time each editing step on one video.
  2. Have AI rank the steps and suggest changes for the slowest.
  3. Try one change on your next video.
  4. Time it again and compare.

A short sample prompt

My editing log for one video, step by step with minutes: [paste]. Rank the steps by time and suggest practical ways to shorten the two slowest, without recommending any paid tool.
