AI Shot List Tool for Filmmakers, Editors, and Creative Teams
Aran's Shot List tool helps you turn existing video into a clean, structured, editable shot list in minutes. Upload footage, let Aran detect cuts and on-screen text, then refine, rename, and export your shots into decks, PDFs, or spreadsheets.
Built for filmmakers, editors, documentarians, agencies, and students who need clarity fast.
Why shot lists are still painful
Most shot lists are built manually. That means scrubbing timelines, pausing constantly, writing timecodes by hand, and trying to track dozens or hundreds of shots across scenes.
For documentaries, interviews, branded edits, and archival-heavy projects, this becomes slow, error-prone, and creatively draining.

Aran vs traditional shot list tools
Traditional shot list tools are usually manual. They require you to build structure from scratch.
Aran is different. Instead of starting with a blank page, you start with your actual footage. Aran extracts structure directly from the video and gives you something real to refine.
