It’s a practical tool for anyone who edits regularly. I like that I can drag and drop effects without overcomplicating things. Some effects are more useful than others, but for fast turnarounds, this is a no-brainer. I use it way more than I expected.

It’s a huge time-saver when working on tight deadlines. Not every effect works for every project, but there’s enough variety to make it worth it. I still tweak some settings to match my style, but it’s nice to start with something instead of a blank timeline.
