Feedback Mode lets Eddie review your video and give timestamped notes to help improve the cut.
Use it when you want a second set of eyes on your edit before publishing, sending to a client, or moving to the next version.
Notes:
you can't subsequently prompt Eddie (yet). It is one-and-done, for now.

What Feedback Mode does
Eddie can give feedback on areas like:
- Story and structure
- Pacing and rhythm
- Clarity
- Hook and audience retention
- Emotional impact
- Edit polish
- Platform fit
Feedback Mode v2 lets you brief Eddie before it reviews your video, so the feedback is based on what you are actually making.
How to use Feedback Mode
1. Open Eddie and click New Project.
2. Choose Show Me All Modes.
3. Select Feedback Mode.
4. Upload your video.
5. Choose how you want to brief Eddie:
- Structured questions
- Custom prompt
Structured questions
Structured questions help Eddie understand the context of your edit.
You can tell Eddie:
- Video type — YouTube explainer, documentary scene, brand film, social ad, course lesson, trailer, product demo, internal video, etc.
- Objective — Inform, teach, sell, persuade, entertain, improve retention, drive action, etc.
- Platform — YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, website, internal review, client delivery, etc.
- Feedback focus — Hook, story, pacing, clarity, structure, emotional impact, audience engagement, edit polish, etc.
- Edit stage — Assembly, rough cut, fine cut, review cut, or near-final delivery.
- Additional direction — Any extra context Eddie should know.
For example:
> “Focus on whether the opening 30 seconds are strong enough.”
> “This is for a client review, so prioritize clarity and brand message.”
> “Review this as a social ad and be direct about whether the hook works.”
## Custom prompt
Use a custom prompt if you already know exactly what you want Eddie to review.
For example:
> “Review this as a YouTube documentary. Focus on story structure, pacing, and whether the emotional arc is clear.”
> “Review this as a paid social ad. Focus on the hook, clarity of the offer, and whether the edit moves quickly enough.”
Use either structured questions or a custom prompt — not both.
## After upload
Once your video has processed, Eddie will review the cut and give notes based on your brief.
Where useful, Eddie includes timestamps so you can jump to specific moments in the edit.
## Tips for better feedback
The more specific your brief, the better the feedback.
For best results, tell Eddie what kind of video you are making, where it will be used, what the goal is, and what kind of feedback matters most.
Feedback Mode is designed to support your creative judgment — not replace it. Think of it as a fast second set of eyes to help you spot issues and get to the next version faster.
