Solar Sailer Documentation

Solar Sailer is a video editor built for the rough cut. It runs AI analysis on your footage, syncs and transcribes it, flags retakes, and hands you a timeline you can refine by hand or with the built-in AI assistant.

This site is the documentation home for everything around the app:

• User manual: everything from install to export. Getting started, projects and media, timeline editing, playback, transcription, the AI tools, the AI assistant, a keyboard shortcut reference, and troubleshooting.
• Plugin development: build a new Process-menu tool with one Python file and a manifest. No repo checkout, no build step.
• Scripting and API: drive the editor from an external script in any language over local HTTP.
• FAQ: common questions about requirements, projects, and workflow.
• Changelog: what shipped in each release.
