ShotBatch vs exporting stills from your editor
Every major editor can export the frame under the playhead: Export Frame in Premiere, Grab Still in Resolve, Save Current Frame in Final Cut. It works well for a handful of frames while the project is open.
| Premiere, Resolve, and Final Cut | ShotBatch | |
|---|---|---|
| Output resolution | Timeline resolution | Source-resolution stills from the master |
| Picking good frames | Scrub and mark by eye | Review pass reads scene cuts, sharpness, faces, motion, lyrics, and audio energy; you approve |
| Needs the project open | Yes, with media linked | No, works from the finished master file |
| Crops, GIFs, contact sheets | Separate exports and tools | White-label pack: stills, clips, GIF loops, contact sheets, print PDFs |
| Where it runs | Inside your NLE | Runs on your Mac, never uploads |
| Price | Included with your editor | One-time: Lite $39.99 for one master with unlimited re-export; Pro $129.99 for unlimited projects plus studio upscale |
Choose Premiere, Resolve, and Final Cut if
You need a few frames while the edit is still open.
Choose ShotBatch if
The edit is delivered and you want a full stills and social pack from the master, without reopening the project.
