Frequently asked

Different category. Submagic is a captions + clip-edit tool used by creators and brand teams to polish clips before posting. FORKOFF is a managed agency that runs the distribution campaign and qualifies every delivered view. Many brand teams use Submagic for production polish and FORKOFF for distribution + qualification.

Yes. The clipper roster will run distribution against any production-ready clip, including Submagic exports. The qualification engine cares about the view-level outcome, not the upstream production tool.

Submagic is a SaaS subscription ($16-$80 / mo for tool access). FORKOFF is per qualified view ($0.003 CPQV) with a $500 sandbox. You pay Submagic regardless of whether anyone watches; you pay FORKOFF only on views that cleared the four-stage gate.

Production split. Submagic produces the captioned clip (1-2 hours per clip). FORKOFF distributes and qualifies it (48 hours from brief to live, qualified-view ledger). Pairs well. Both layers contribute to clip-and-distribute throughput.

No. FORKOFF clippers caption manually or via their own production tools. We optimise for narrative-fit watch-through, not auto-caption polish. Brand teams that want polished captions typically pair Submagic + FORKOFF.
