Plan the video.Cut it in Premiere.Know what it did.
A web workspace where you plan a video before you shoot
it and see how it performed after you publish it. It connects to the Um Out panel that cut it in between. Included with Um Out Plus.
Still in design, so you cannot use it yet. Included with Um Out Plus when it lands.

What Um Base does
Eight parts, all reading from the same project, so no part
of it has to be told twice what the video is about.
Um Bot
It starts from what is already working on your channel.
The same assistant as the one in your Premiere panel, with a wider view. Ask it what
to make next and it answers out of your own numbers: which formats hold attention,
which titles earned the click, what your returning audience finishes. Then it writes
the ideas in the shapes that have already worked for you.
“Your challenge runs
outperform your tutorials three to one, and you have only made two this quarter.”
I built four bases to find the one that survives a raidThe farm design nobody warns you about until it floods
62% retention on challenge runs against 38% on tutorials of the same length
Projects
One video, one project, from the first note to the upload.
Brief, research, script, thumbnail candidates, tasks and the publish
plan in a single document with a status. When the edit is done the
upload is already staged: title, description with the chapters your
panel made, tags and thumbnail.

Calendar
The plan and the schedule are the same thing.
Projects with a target date, so nothing lives in a separate
calendar that quietly goes stale.
Your numbers

them.

Channel profile
One document that makes every answer yours.
Your pillars, your audience, what performs and how you actually
talk, written once and refreshed on a schedule. Brainstorming,
title scoring and thumbnail review all read it first, which is why a suggestion here sounds like your channel.
Pause tolerance 0.7s · intros land inside the first minute · problem framing beats series numbering
Title scoring
Scored against your own back catalogue.
The test is whether it beats the titles that already worked on your channel.

Performance review
The retention curve, next to the edit that produced it.
Two days after the upload, the numbers arrive attached to the
project, and to the cuts your panel made. You get a plain sentence about which decision cost you the viewers, and an offer to change the panel's own settings before the next edit.
Viewers left at 1:45, the end of the forty-second intro you kept.
Your last six videos hold attention when the run starts inside the first minute.
Why no other tool can do this
Everything above is buildable by anyone, and several teams will build it. Um Out is the only one that also owns the timeline, so it is the only one that can put your numbers next to the edit that produced them.
In Premiere
Um Out knows what you did
Every gap, filler and bad take you cut, and the ones you kept
How tight you cut, measured in frames
The transcript, the chapters, the punch-ins, the captions
Which suggestions you accepted and which you threw out
In Um Base
Um Base knows what happened
Where viewers actually left, second by second
Which titles and thumbnails earned the click
What your returning audience finishes, and what it skips
How this video sits against your own last six, not a benchmark
Your retention holds through cuts under 0.6 seconds and dips where
you cut tighter. Three of your six biggest drop-offs are in the first
forty seconds. Your intros are the edit to change, not your pacing.
Then the panel offers to change its own defaults to match. Writing that sentence takes both halves: what was cut, and what happened afterwards.
Which platforms it connects to
Retention, click-through and traffic sources are what
make the post-publish review possible, and YouTube is the only one of the
four that hands them over. So that is the platform Um Base goes deep on. The others do what they can.
YouTube
Channel and video statistics, upload by upload
Retention, click-through and traffic sources
Your own back catalogue, to score new titles against
Uploads staged with the chapters your panel made
One caveat, stated up front: Um Base can
prepare an upload but not publish it for you until a YouTube API audit
clears. Until then, anything an unverified project uploads is locked
private, so that part carries a date nobody here controls.
Twitch
Followers, recent broadcasts, and whether you are
live right now.
TikTok
Profile and post statistics, once the app clears
review.
Instagram
Needs a professional account, a linked page, and
app review for insights.
These three give you a following and a post list, which
is what the home screen is for: one place for the numbers you check daily instead of four tabs. None of them give you retention, so the review runs on YouTube.
Um Base is also not a YouTube Studio replacement. No
comments, no moderation, no monetisation, no copyright, no community
posts.
What it does for your channel
Four things you can do the week it opens that you cannot
do with an editor and an analytics tab in separate windows.
Find out which videos worked, and why
Retention arrives attached to the edit that made it. A drop-off points at a decision you made at a timecode: the long intro, the take you kept, the cut you made too tight.
Every published video sits next to the cuts behind it
Measured against your own last six videos
Make more of what is already working
Um Bot reads your own numbers before it says anything: which formats
hold attention, which earn the click, what your returning audience
finishes. Then it writes the next ideas in the shapes that already
earned you views.
Ideas grounded in your own numbers
The reason attached to every suggestion
Stop guessing at titles and thumbnails
Every candidate scored against the ones that already worked for you,
with the reasoning shown. If a framing has historically cost you
views on this channel, you find out before you publish instead of a week afterwards.
Scored against your back catalogue
Thumbnails checked at the size people actually see them
Cut the next one better
Once it knows how tightly your audience will let you cut, that goes
back to the panel. Your pause tolerance, your intro length, the
pacing that holds, all applied to the next edit before you start it.
The panel's own defaults, tuned to your results
Every edit teaches the next one
Your footage still never leaves your computer. The panel reads your media locally and sends only text. Um Base holds what
you connect and what you type into it.
The full answer is in the questions below.
One video, start to finish
What using it actually looks like. The loop begins and ends in the same place.
01In Um Base
Start from what already worked
Ask Um Bot what to make next and it answers out of your own numbers. Pick a direction and it becomes a project with a title shortlist attached.
02In Um Base
Write it in the project
Brief, research, script and thumbnail candidates in one document with a status. Everything after this reads from it, so nothing has to be explained twice.
03In Premiere
Cut it in Um Out
Open the panel and pick the project. It now knows the brief, the script and the title you are aiming at. Do the usual first pass: silences, fillers, captions, punch-ins. The chapters it makes land back in the project on their own.
04In Um Base
Publish with the upload already staged
Title, description with those chapters, tags and thumbnail assembled and ready. One click out to YouTube. Uploading for you waits on a YouTube API audit.

Find out what it actually did
Two days later the retention curve arrives next to the edit that produced it, with a plain sentence about which decision cost you the viewers, and an offer to change the panel’s own settings before the next one.
Questions
What is Um Base, in one sentence?
A web workspace where you plan a video before you shoot it and see
how it performed after you publish it. It connects to the Um Out panel that did the cutting in between.
Do I need it to use Um Out?
No. The Premiere panel is a complete product on its own and stays
that way. Um Base is a second surface for people who want the
planning and the numbers in the same place as the edit.
What will it cost?
Um Base is included with Um Out Plus. No separate
subscription, no second thing to buy. Plus already covers the hosted
AI, and this workspace is the other half of it.
Um Out Local is unaffected: it stays a one-off purchase covering the
Premiere panel, exactly as sold. Um Base needs a service running
behind it: polling, storage, model spend. That is why it sits with
the plan that already carries those costs.
Does it upload my footage?
No. The panel keeps reading your media locally and sending only
text. Um Base holds what you connect and what you type into it: channel statistics, plans, scripts, plus any thumbnail you
explicitly send for review. Nothing syncs in the background.
Will I need a second account?
No. Um Base runs on a subdomain of umout.ai, which shares a session
with the account API. Sign in once on the main site and you arrive
already signed in. Sign out anywhere and you are signed out
everywhere.
When can I use it?
There is no date, and one will not be invented here. Two parts of
it depend on other people: publishing to YouTube needs an API audit,
and storing channel data on a server needs Google verification. Both
run on timelines nobody here controls.
The honest thing you can do today is use the panel. When this
lands, it will already know what you cut.
Start with the half that already works
Um Base opens on the Um Out account you already have, with
the same sign-in and nothing new to set up. So the useful move today is
the panel: cut a video with it, and when this lands it will already know
what you did.
