Update: I said the build starts Oct 27, then went quiet here. That ends today.
Where it is now:
•a free tool that scores a video editor's portfolio (first real test: a weak profile got 10/100)
•436 YouTube channels checked with AI's help
Posting every day from here.

@Gboyega_Nathan Clear intro, and your talking-head trial stays readable. One fix: pin that talking-head sample so creators can judge you at a glance. I built a free tool that scores an editor's portfolio and shows 5 YouTube channels that may need an editor — want the link?

[Dhruv Rana @Dhruvranai]

@alves__editor Solid that you lead with the portfolio. One fix: pin your strongest gameplay cut so people see your style in 10 seconds. I built a free portfolio checker for editors — it also lists 5 YouTube channels that may need an editor. Want the link?

@joeledita Clear English commissions pitch. One fix: your bio is mostly Portuguese while you pitch in English — put one English Shorts/long-form line up top. I built a free tool that scores an editor's portfolio and shows 5 YouTube channels that may need an editor — want the link?

[Dhruv Rana @Dhruvranai]

@Sureplug102 Clear pacing on that client business edit. One fix: pin a public showreel — Drive folders often hit a sign-in wall. I made a free tool that rates editor portfolios and finds 5 YouTube channels that may need an editor. Want me to send it?

[Dhruv Rana @Dhruvranai]

@LalasClips Your Iyouxin breakdown nails why simple stream cuts still win views. One fix: your site points at the channel, not a reel of your edits — add one. I built a free tool that scores an editor's portfolio and shows 5 YouTube channels that may need an editor — want the link?

@Midrolleditor_ @hubermanlab Nice text animation on that Huberman clip. Right now there’s no link and nothing pinned, so creators can’t see more. Pin that clip and add one portfolio link. I also found 5 podcasts posting full episodes with no clips. Want the list?

[Dhruv Rana @Dhruvranai]

@cgxadil61682 Clean captions! But your bio cuts off mid-word and your only link is WhatsApp. Finish the bio and pin your best podcast clip so creators can judge you fast. I also found 5 podcasts posting full episodes with no clips. Want the list?

[Dhruv Rana @Dhruvranai]

@bilal_editss Your explainer work looks pro, but there’s no portfolio link or pinned post, and your bio says reels while you’re pitching podcasts. Pin one podcast clip and match the bio. I also found 5 podcasts posting full episodes with no clips. Want the list?

[Dhruv Rana @Dhruvranai]

@Rkeditz_0 @OhemaaBlondie Your portfolio site is strong (those hook-first podcast clips especially), but nothing’s pinned and your feed buries it. Pin one podcast before/after so creators see it first. I also found 5 podcasts posting full episodes with no clips. Want the list?

[Dhruv Rana @Dhruvranai]

@ahamdedits Your samples are good, but there’s no portfolio link and your bio cuts off mid-sentence. Add one link + finish the bio and clients can judge you fast. I found 5 education/podcast channels posting long videos with no clips. Want the list?

[Dhruv Rana @Dhruvranai]

@heykedves Your framer portfolio is solid, but it’s 2 clicks away. Pin your best gaming edit here so clients see it in 10 seconds. I also found 5 small co-op/horror channels posting long sessions with no tight edits. Want the list?

[Dhruv Rana @Dhruvranai]

@jasmimeditor Your carrd link shows “Page not found” (double “o” in the URL?). It’s your only proof, so fix it and pin 1–2 VTuber clips here. I also found 5 VTubers posting raw 4–8h streams with zero highlights. Want the list?
