RampantOctopus Softworks
Small, focused tools for Video Editors and Producers — built to kill the repetitive, error-prone parts of finishing a project, especially the last mile: onlining, licensing, and delivery.
XML2Excel
Turn a sequence XML into a delivery-ready production binder.
Export your sequence as an XML, drop it into XML2Excel, and get a formatted, multi-tab Excel workbook: every clip with source file and timecodes, sequence and clip markers, effects, transitions, titles, a source-file summary, and a ready-to-send music cue sheet.
- Flags source files used more than once
- Identifies likely stock footage and music by naming convention (Getty, Shutterstock, Adobe Stock, Storyblocks, Pond5, Epidemic Sound, and more)
- Marks probable YouTube downloads in red so rights issues surface before delivery
- Full control over report scope — enabled clips only, specific tracks, which sheets to include
StockSilo
Never lose track of where a stock clip came from again.
StockSilo automatically files every stock footage download into an organized folder structure (StockSilo/<Project>/<Site>/Comps/) and logs it — date, project, file name, source site, and a link back to the clip’s page — across Pond5, Getty, Storyblocks, Artgrid, Shutterstock, and 15+ sites out of the box, with support for adding your own.
- Project-aware: switch projects in the popup and downloads route (and log) accordingly
- Smart enough to log the specific clip page even from search grids or generic “My Footage” pages
- 100% private — no accounts, no analytics, nothing ever leaves your machine
- Pairs directly with ClipLog for automatic licensing reports
ClipLog
Find out exactly what stock footage you actually used — automatically.
ClipLog audits your finished Premiere Pro XMEML timeline against your StockSilo download log (CSV/XLSX) to figure out exactly which downloaded clips made the final cut, how many times, and for how long — then builds a licensing-ready Excel report.
- Stock Footage Used — matched clips with source site, URL, download location, and usage duration
- Music Cue Sheet — same treatment, for music cues
- Non-Stock Media — everything else, with a heuristic flag for unlicensed stock you may have forgotten to log
- Summary — totals, frame rate, and the options used to generate the report
Rows needing licensing attention are amber-flagged, straight from preview into the final spreadsheet.
