KEEP THE
HUMAN.

We’re Doug and Quinston.
We believe the person on camera is the reason to watch.

So we’re building a company around a simple idea: make it easier for people to share what they know—and still sound like themselves.

THE PERSON
IS THE CONTENT.

A teacher making something click. A founder explaining why it matters. An expert sharing what only experience can teach.

More human voices. More knowledge shared.
That’s the future we want to help build.

A SMALL
FRUSTRATION.
A BIGGER IDEA.

From zero to one is what you cut.

Doug saw a jump-cut video on LinkedIn and loved its pace. Recreating it meant removing pauses by hand. Surely there was a better way.

In December 2019, he and Quinston launched TimeBolt. Doug brought the creator’s perspective. Quinston brought the engineering. They bootstrapped a company around a problem they understood firsthand.

Two founders.
One shared frustration.

Doug and Quinston launch TimeBolt in December. They build the company with their own resources, starting with the repetitive work between recording and sharing a video.

A community taking shape.

By June, TimeBolt reaches 600 downloads. An early customer says the website needs work—and helps Doug move it to Kajabi. People using the product are already shaping the company.

Test the idea.
Share the truth.

The July Cut Test compares automated edits with Doug’s hand edit. Neither automated version is ready untouched—including our own. The lesson strengthens our conviction: technology should keep people in control.
