AI edited video souvenirs as a service
We build the Revl Arc, a smart action camera that uses AI to automatically edit and generate video souvenirs from raw footage. It targets sports and adventure users who want high-quality highlight videos without spending hours editing themselves.
We live in San Francisco and the company is based here, with some team members remote.
We're in San Francisco because it gives us access to hardware engineers, tech talent, and partners like Sony and frogVentures that helped with designing the Revl Arc camera.
