Video project tools: platform specs, editing briefs, SRT/WebVTT conversion, turnaround times.
Scored across 7 tools
Most tools target clearly different needs (subtitle conversion, brief building, turnaround, plans, platform specs). The one soft boundary is between find_video_editing_service and start_video_project: both are described as the tool to use when a user wants an editor or a quote, and find_video_editing_service already returns a quote link, so an agent could plausibly pick either.
Every tool follows a clean snake_case verb_noun pattern (convert_subtitles, create_editing_brief, get_editing_turnaround, start_video_project). Verbs are used predictably — get_ for lookups, create_/start_ for generators, convert_/find_ for the remaining actions.
Seven tools is well within the sweet spot and each one maps to a distinct user intent (specs, turnaround, plans, service match, quote, brief, subtitle conversion). Nothing feels padded or redundant in count.
The service/lookup side is fairly complete: discovery, turnaround, ongoing pricing, platform specs, and a quote hand-off cover the main funnel, and the brief builder and subtitle converter round it out. Minor gaps remain — there is no general service catalog/pricing lookup independent of a project description, and convert_subtitles is a lone utility with no companion (e.g. resync-only or format-validation tool).
Converts caption text between SubRip (.srt) and WebVTT (.vtt), optionally shifting every timestamp by a number of milliseconds, and reports format problems (missing numbers, comma/period timestamps, captions run together). Runs entirely on the server with the open-source subtitle code used by the markstudios.com caption tools; nothing is stored.
Inputs: captions (required), to, filename, shift_ms.
Builds a filled-in 7-section video editing brief (project, audience and goal, references, must-include moments, brand rules, deliverable specs, timeline) from whatever the user already knows, and lists the gaps an editor will ask about. Use when someone is about to hand footage to an editor, freelancer or agency. Pass only fields you know.
Inputs: copy, kill, must, nice, +26 more.
Given a description of a video project (e.g. 'turn my podcast into weekly Reels'), returns the closest-matching Mark Studios editing services with what each includes, its standard turnaround, the service page, and a link to start an instant quote for that service. Use when the user asks who could edit a video or how to get one edited.
Inputs: need (required).
Standard Mark Studios editing turnaround windows by format (vlog, YouTube, talking head, short-form batch, ad, corporate, course, VSL, wedding, monthly plan), plus when the clock starts, rush speeds and revision timing.
Inputs: format.
The four Mark Studios monthly video editing plans with price and what each includes (long videos, Shorts, thumbnails), from markstudios.com/pricing. Use when the user asks what ongoing video editing costs.
Inputs: no named parameters.
Maximum length, recommended aspect ratio and resolution for short-form video on YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, TikTok, Snapchat Spotlight and LinkedIn, read from each platform's own help and developer pages, with the source link for every figure. Use when someone asks how long a Short/Reel/TikTok can be or what size to export.
Inputs: platform.
Returns a link to the Mark Studios instant quote (start.markstudios.com), preselected for the chosen service, and what happens after: questions about the footage, a price on screen, then upload. It only builds a link; it sends nothing and collects no personal data. Use when the user says they want to hire an editor or get a quote.
Inputs: service.
