“Normally I'd spend 30 minutes studying a reference before opening Premiere. With Peel, I can get the structure in a couple of minutes.”
“I dropped in a video I liked and Peel caught cuts, captions, zooms, and pacing that I hadn't even noticed myself.”
“I used to replay edits frame by frame trying to figure out how they were made. Peel basically does that work for me now.”
