videocollaboration

Collaborative video markup tool

Build a real-time tool for teams to annotate and sketch on video frames together. For video editors, animators, and production teams.

Why now

Remote collaboration on video content is growing, but most tools focus only on final editing, not early-stage planning.

Who for
Video production teams
Business model
Team subscriptions
Effort
A few months

Creative teams waste time describing visual ideas when they could be sketching directly on reference footage.

Create a web-based tool that lets teams load video, scrub frame-by-frame, and draw annotations that persist across frames. Add simple version control for iterations.

Target small animation studios and video production houses with team plans. Charge per project or monthly.

Start with a basic single-user sketching tool, then add collaboration features.

Risk: Existing video editors may add similar features as plugins.
