One editor.
Built for the deadline.

Spearow keeps reporters, video desks, and social teams on the same timeline — captioned, branded, and ready to publish.

STEP 02

STEP 04

— Questions

Frequently asked, plainly answered.

Didn't find what you're after? Our editorial solutions team takes every question.

Talk to sales

For most newsroom cuts, yes — Spearow is purpose-built for desk turnaround, not feature-film finishing. Send the long-form work back to your NLE; do the news cut in Spearow.

Each brand, region or masthead is an isolated tenant with its own users, templates, brand kits and exports — but you manage them from one admin plane.

Yes. Speech-to-text supports Arabic and English out of the box, captions render RTL correctly in burn-in and SRT/VTT exports, and the review surface is fully RTL-aware.

Most desks are live in two weeks. A dedicated editorial solutions engineer migrates your brand assets, lower-thirds and roles during setup.

Yes — we ship a Docker deployment for security-sensitive customers. SSO and audit-log export are available on all plans.
