See exactly what changed between timelines
Synq highlights shot-level differences between edit versions so teams can quickly understand what changed and what needs to be updated downstream.
Synq automatically compares edit timelines and shows what changed between versions. Assistant editors and post-production teams can instantly identify added, removed, and modified shots without manually scrubbing timelines.
Built for assistant editors, post supervisors, and downstream post teams.
Synq highlights shot-level differences between edit versions so teams can quickly understand what changed and what needs to be updated downstream.
Every new cut creates more manual work for editorial teams.

This process is slow, repetitive, and easy to get wrong. On complex projects, even a small revision can take hours to review manually.
Synq acts as a timeline comparison engine for post-production workflows.
Upload two timeline versions and Synq automatically identifies:
Instead of manually scrubbing through timelines, teams get a clear change report in seconds.
Export timeline data from your editing software and upload two edit versions into Synq.
Synq compares both timelines and detects shot-level differences, including new shots, removed shots, trim adjustments, and reorder edits.
Get a clear report showing what changed between cuts so VFX, sound, color, and finishing teams can update their work faster.
Editorial changes affect more than just the edit. Synq helps downstream teams understand what changed and respond faster across VFX, sound, color, and finishing.
Track timeline revisions without manually comparing cuts.
Understand how editorial changes impact downstream teams.
Identify exactly which shots changed between versions.
Update reconforms faster with accurate change reports.
Quickly spot new or changed shots that need updates.
Save hours of manual comparison
Automated diffing replaces tedious scrubbing.
Reduce mistakes in change reports
Frame-accurate detection eliminates human error.
Keep downstream teams aligned
Everyone sees the same change data — no miscommunication.
Speed up reconform workflows
Get reconform reports in seconds, not hours.
When revisions happen constantly, automated timeline comparison gives teams a faster and more reliable way to track editorial changes.
A timeline comparison tool analyzes two versions of an edit timeline and identifies the differences between them.
In post-production workflows, timeline comparison is used to track editorial changes between cuts and help downstream teams — including VFX, sound, color, and finishing — update their work accordingly.
Instead of manually reviewing timelines shot by shot, tools like Synq detect shot-level differences automatically and generate clear reconform reports that the whole team can use.
Detect editorial changes instantly and keep your post-production pipeline in sync.
