You can now record voiceovers, camera video, and audio without leaving the editor. Reap also remembers your preferred settings for every project type, the Free plan now includes one social connection and daily publishing, and failed renewal payments no longer remove paid features while Stripe is still retrying. This release also improves timeline playback, mobile editing, Urdu captions, Brand Kit safety, checkout, and Reap MCP in ChatGPT.
Record Voiceovers in the Editor
The editor now has a dedicated Voiceover tool for recording narration while your video plays.
- Start recording from any point on the timeline after a 3–2–1 countdown. Your new take is placed exactly where you started.
- The preview is muted during recording so its audio is not captured by your microphone, then restored automatically when you finish.
- Reap compensates for browser and microphone startup delay so recorded narration stays in sync.
- AI Voice now lives in the same Voiceover panel, making recorded and generated narration available in one place.
- The Assets panel can now record camera video or audio directly, with device selection and a live input-level meter.
Save Your Project Settings as Defaults
Set up a project once, save those choices, and Reap will preselect them the next time you create that type of project.
- Save as default settings is now available for Clips, Captions, Audiograms, Auto Reframe, AI Editor, Dubbing, and Transcription.
- Defaults are saved separately for each project type and workspace.
- Reap checks saved templates, caption styles, languages, and other choices against what is currently available before restoring them.
- Project-specific content, such as source media, trim ranges, topics, prompts, overlay text, and uploaded files are never carried into the next project.
MCP and more Included on the Free Plan
Free workspaces can now connect Reap to more of their workflow:
- Connect one social account and publish or schedule one post per day.
- Connect one MCP client and create one project at a time through Reap MCP.
- Create Clips and Captions through MCP at up to 720p, within the workspace's available credits.
- Bulk scheduling, other features than clipping, captions and direct Automation API keys remain paid features.
Timeline and Mobile Editing Improvements
- The timeline now follows the playhead during playback, keeping the current moment in view when you're zoomed in or on mobile editor.
- On phones, the selection bar now includes Settings, opening the correct panel for the selected item directly.
Billing and Checkout
- A failed renewal no longer drops a workspace to the Free plan while Stripe is still retrying the payment. Paid features remain available during the retry window.
- Workspace admins see a Payment failed notice with a Pay now button that opens the unpaid invoice. Other members are prompted to contact their admin.
- Admins now receive an email when a paid subscription ends and the workspace moves to the Free plan.
Automation API
- Read limits have increased to 60 requests per minute and write limits to 30 requests per minute, per API key and endpoint. Project-creation endpoints remain at 10 requests per minute.
- Responses now include rate-limit limit, remaining, and reset headers, making client-side pacing and retries easier to manage.
Reap MCP
- Fixed clip previews in ChatGPT showing cards with titles and scores but no video. Previews now load and play again.
- The permission screen shown when you connect an MCP client now spells out what you're granting: access to workspace content, processing that uses media or AI credits, editing and cancelling projects, public or scheduled social posts, and billing links. It also explains how to revoke access and what revoking does and doesn't stop.
Captions, Templates, and Export Fixes
- Urdu captions now use explicit Urdu-compatible fonts, and Nastaliq is available in the font picker.
- Brand Kit template editing now warns before a refresh, tab close, Back action, or navigation would discard unsaved changes.
- Reopening an Audiogram project now switches to the correct Templates or Brand templates tab and waits for saved defaults to finish loading before showing the selection.

Fixes
Timeline & Playback
- When playback reaches the end, the playhead now returns to the beginning, and the Play/Pause button always reflects what the preview is actually doing.
- Scrubbing the ruler now stays aligned with your pointer, even if the timeline scrolls while you drag.
Mobile
- Fixed the Publish button on the project page doing nothing when tapped on phones and tablets.
- Touch tooltips no longer get stuck open. Important explanations, including disabled controls and billing information, remain tappable.
Media & Uploads
- Photos now keep their original orientation when added to the editor or Brand Kit.
Export
- Choosing None for a 3D layout now saves and exports correctly, including on projects that already stored the older no-effect value.
