About the project
What is Brevidee?
Brevidee is a two-part platform that turns a manual video service into a scalable SaaS for schools.
Brevidee App (mobile, SaaS for schools)
Teachers, staff and students (Producers) record and upload event videos. School leaders (Executive Producers: owner, principal, superintendent) review drafts, chat with the editor and approve. Executive Producers have an AI assistant in the app that knows the school’s context and helps plan future events and content.
Brevidee Studio (web, for the editing team)
Centralises incoming footage, applies templates, edits videos and publishes embeddable widgets.
The problem
What was slowing them down.
- 01
Scalability
One videographer could not cover many schools at once.
- 02
Bottlenecks
Recording, editing and approval all relied on a single person.
- 03
Lack of control for schools
Schools had no role in content creation beyond receiving the final video.
- 04
Collaboration gaps
Travel and manual editing caused long turnaround times.
- 05
Time-to-publish delays
There was no smooth channel for feedback between schools and the editor.
The solution
What we built.
Brevidee App
The core SaaS product sold to schools.
- Producers (teachers, staff, students) record and upload event videos from their phones.
- Executive Producers receive edited drafts in the app.
- They chat directly with the editor for feedback and changes.
- A school-aware AI assistant helps plan upcoming events and content calendars.
Brevidee Studio
The professional workspace for the editing team.
- Centralises footage from many schools and projects.
- Manages templates (JSON and simple Python).
- Edits through the Shotstack API, or exports to advanced tools such as Premiere Pro.
- Creates widgets that embed videos on school websites.
- Runs real-time chat with each school’s Executive Producers for reviews and approvals.

Bold red brings energy and forward motion, right for the vibrancy of school events. Deep black grounds it, so the platform feels professional as well as lively.
He brought genuine intelligence to the hard problems and cared about getting things right rather than just getting things done. The team he’s assembled at SprintX reflects that same standard.
