## Stations

- [Home](https://clip-forge.io/guide/home): Where the console opens: your video quota for the month, your recent projects and the way to start a new one.
- [Projects](https://clip-forge.io/guide/projects): Every project on your account, newest first. Find one, open it, or delete it.
- [New project](https://clip-forge.io/guide/new-project): Start a project from one video file. ClipForge transcribes it and finds the clips.
- [Project](https://clip-forge.io/guide/project): One video and everything made from it: its transcript, its clips and their exports.
- [AI Studio](https://clip-forge.io/guide/ai-studio) (Pro): Estimates and rankings for clips you already have: a forecast per platform, and a ranked list to export from.
- [Pro Studio](https://clip-forge.io/guide/pro-studio): A timeline editor for the open project: place footage, cut it, and render the result as an MP4.
- [Media](https://clip-forge.io/guide/media) (Creator): Make an image or a short video from a written description on your own fal or Replicate key, and download it.
- [Batch](https://clip-forge.io/guide/batch) (Creator): Queue several videos at once from direct file links. Each becomes a project with its own clips.
- [Templates](https://clip-forge.io/guide/templates): A template sets a clip's shape, captions, hook and cards in one choice. Browse the ones that ship, or build your own.
- [Brand kit](https://clip-forge.io/guide/brand): Your logo, colours, fonts and caption look, set once and used on every export that carries your brand.
- [Calendar](https://clip-forge.io/guide/calendar) (Pro): Plan campaigns by date. It is a planning calendar: nothing is posted from it.
- [Automations](https://clip-forge.io/guide/automations) (Agency): Rules that act on a clip when it is found, and webhook endpoints that receive signed events when your work finishes.
- [Analytics](https://clip-forge.io/guide/analytics) (Pro): Views, likes, comments and shares for clips ClipForge has posted. ClipForge does not post to social accounts yet, so there is nothing here to read.
- [Settings and Billing](https://clip-forge.io/guide/settings): Your name, your emails, your AI keys, your plan and your account.
