If you edit in DaVinci Resolve.
The editing will feel familiar: ripple, roll, slip and slide, a compositor, colour wheels, and export for the web, HDR and ProRes. Grapple puts motion graphics on the same timeline, comes with tools for the jobs editors repeat, and adds Ape, which builds titles, motion and effects in your project.

- Ripple, roll, slip and slide edits.
- A compositor for layered shots.
- Export for H.264, HEVC, HDR and ProRes 4444.
- Lift, Gamma and Gain wheels, curves and LUTs, with OpenColorIO and ACES.
What Grapple adds
Motion graphics on the edit timeline, tools for the jobs you repeat, and an agent that works in the edit with you.
Motion graphics on the edit
Text, shapes, masks, cameras, paths and rigs on the Stage, with the curves on the Graph, right beside your clips.
Transcripts you correct on the Timeline
Every word is on the Timeline where it was said. Slide it to retime it, fix a misheard name, and linked captions follow.
Tools for the jobs you repeat
Tighten pauses, Snap cuts to beats, Scene cut split and Duck music under voice come with Grapple, and each shows its changes on the Timeline before they apply.
Ape in the same project
Ask Ape for the lower thirds or the vertical version, then adjust what it built like your own edit. It runs on the Claude or ChatGPT plan you already have.
Try an interview cutdown.
Cut it the way you always do, run Tighten pauses on the interview, then ask Ape for the lower thirds and the vertical version.
Try it on an edit you know.
