The math doesn't lie.
Video Editors deal with unique challenges that generic software was not built for: Tracking editing hours when you work in long, uninterrupted blocks. Render time — is it billable? Clients say no, editors say yes. Revision rounds spiraling beyond the original scope. Late payments from clients who already published the video. Toggl Track charges $18/month on top of these daily realities. The median video editor earns $48,000/year — $216/year in software subscriptions is a significant percentage of that income, paid every year, forever.
Nexa is $279 once. Invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, accounting — all connected, built for video editors. You own it like you own your Editing workstation (high-spec CPU/GPU, 64GB+ RAM).
You're in hour 6 of editing a YouTube creator's 20-minute video. You step away for lunch and forget to pause the timer. Your other client's corporate training video needs 14 cuts that 'should be quick' — each one requires re-rendering. Tonight you need to invoice the podcast client whose last payment was 40 days late. Your Toggl bill and FreshBooks bill just auto-renewed — $27/month for time tracking and invoicing that don't talk to each other.
