Freelancers: find clients with the calls you already hold
Dailies Studio is a Chrome extension that records your video calls with clients and cuts captioned vertical shorts from them, ready to post. As a freelancer you are the one who does the work, the one who sells it and the one who ought to be promoting it: video always comes after the project in hand. Yet you explain your trade several times a week, to clients who ask you exactly the questions your next clients will ask.

Which calls in a freelancer’s week make good shorts?
Look at your calendar: between two stretches of production there are always a few calls. Dailies Studio reads each one from start to finish and keeps up to eight passages of 30 to 90 seconds that really share value, with nothing for you to prepare.
The discovery call
A prospect asks how you would approach their project. You lay out your method in forty seconds: it is the most convincing presentation of your services you will ever give.
The progress update
You explain to a client why you made one choice and not another. That reasoning shows your trade far better than a list of skills on a profile.
Scoping a project
You say what is realistic for the budget and what is not. That candour attracts the clients you want to work with, and sends the others away before the quote.
The project review
What worked, what you would do differently, what the client gained. A case study told out loud, without a line to write.
Why start from your calls rather than a video shoot?
You do not have a spare hour
An hour you cannot bill is an hour lost, and filming takes several. Here you hold your calls; the shorts are ready a few minutes after you hang up, with silences, hesitations and false starts cut out.
They show your real work
With a client you are not selling yourself: you are solving their problem out loud. That is what a prospect wants to see before writing to you, and what an “about” page never shows.
Your clients are not put on show
A short shows whoever is speaking. One switch blurs your clients and disguises their voice, and you choose short by short what you plan. Nothing is published without you.
What kind of shorts can a freelancer post?
These are the kinds of titles a freelancer’s shorts carry. They are the answers you already give on calls, to clients who look like the ones you are after.

How does Dailies Studio work?
Hold your video call, as usual.
Open your call in Chrome, on Google Meet, Microsoft Teams or Zoom. Our proprietary technology records the call, your microphone and your webcam, without you having to think about it.
We spot what is worth watching.
We go through the whole call with a fine-tooth comb and keep up to eight passages that stand on their own. Silences, hesitations, false starts: we cut them. You have nothing to edit.
Framed to convert on a smartphone.
Your future clients find you on their phones. Each short fills the screen with you, or with your guest when they speak: all the attention goes to what is said. One switch blurs your guests.
Captioned and dressed in your image.
We tailor the captions and the look from one of our templates or from your own brand guidelines. All your shorts follow, so people recognise you at first glance.
One call, up to eight shorts.
Your shorts are ready within the hour after your call. We pick the right moment for each one and orchestrate their release on your networks. Your publishing schedule stays in front of you: if a date doesn’t suit you, you move it.
What about the confidentiality of your calls?
What I say on a call belongs to my clients: can I make shorts from it?
What your client paid for is an answer to their own situation, and that is not what Dailies Studio looks for. It rates every passage on what it reveals that is private or confidential, turns down those that reveal something and keeps the ones that make sense outside the call: a piece of advice, a method, an opinion. That is a model’s judgement, not a guarantee. So nothing is published without you: you watch every short before planning it, and when one does not suit you, you say why and Dailies Studio leaves that subject out of your next calls. Your contract with your client remains the rule.
Nobody must know I work with this client: what do the shorts show?
One switch blurs your guests and disguises their voice in all your shorts; on a new account, it is on from the start. A short mostly shows you, explaining. That leaves what is said: if a passage names your client or describes their company, the blur changes nothing. That is why Dailies Studio turns down the passages that reveal something private, and why you have the last word: a short Dailies Studio proposes is not a short that is posted.
Do my calls stay stored on a server?
Your calls do reach a server, since Dailies Studio has to receive them to cut your shorts from them, but the original files do not stay there: the sound and picture of a processed call are deleted 10 days after processing, 15 days at the latest. What stays is what your shorts are made of, that is, the only pieces of video they use, and the call’s transcript, until you delete the call, which you can do at any time. You choose which calls you record, and your recordings train no model.
Frequently asked questions
How do you make videos to find clients as a freelancer?
By starting from what you already say. Dailies Studio records the calls you hold in Chrome on Google Meet, Microsoft Teams or Zoom, spots the passages that really share value and makes up to eight captioned vertical shorts per call from them. You have nothing to film and nothing to edit.
Do I have to tell my client that the call is being recorded?
Yes: telling your client is up to you, before you begin. In the shorts Dailies Studio cuts, one switch blurs your guests and disguises their voice, and you then decide what you plan: nothing else is published.
I don’t like seeing myself on video: is Dailies Studio for me?
That is what Dailies Studio is made for. You do not film yourself: you hold a call, as you do every day, with your mind on your client and not on a camera. Dailies Studio cuts the silences, the hesitations and the false starts, and you post only the shorts you like.
Where should a freelancer post these shorts?
You plan each short on the day and at the hour you choose, and Dailies Studio publishes it for you on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, LinkedIn or TikTok. Nothing goes out unless you planned it.
Which languages does Dailies Studio handle?
Dailies Studio handles calls in French and in English. Every short arrives captioned, in the style you choose.
Your next client call is already planned.
Thirty minutes with us to set Dailies Studio up. Then record it, and see what comes out a few minutes after you hang up. You have nothing to film.
