Roadmap

What works now, and what is next.

The clipping pipeline is built. Accounts and billing are the work between here and a public launch.

Shipped

  • Clip by start and end phrase, resolved against the transcript
  • Occurrence index and nearest-timestamp resolution
  • Raw timestamp markers
  • Direct upload and ingest from a source URL
  • Content-addressed clip cache and cached transcripts
  • Signed download URLs
2

Next — v1

  • Accounts and sign-in
  • API keys you can mint and revoke
  • Prepaid credits and card top-up
  • Per-request usage history
  • Import from Google Drive — pick a file in the browser, or pass a Drive file id
3

After v1

  • MCP server for tool-using assistants
  • x402 pay-per-request for agents with no account
  • A command-line client
  • A browser UI for people who would rather not call an API

Dates are deliberately absent. Anything with a date on a pre-launch roadmap is a guess, and we would rather tell you what order things happen in than invent a calendar.

Be first in when accounts open.

Accounts, API keys and billing all open together with v1. Tell us what you are building and we will email you the day it does.

What are you building?

We will email you when accounts open. No newsletter, no sharing your address. Questions:hello@ottocut.com.
