What began as a venture between two good friends sleeping on a floor after college has blossomed into a premier staffing agency for creative talent. Clipt.co was born out of necessity and entrepreneurial spirit during the COVID-19 pandemic. Co-founders Dylan Jardon and Henry Belcaster, fueled by a passion for video creation but constrained by a tight budget, made a pivotal decision. With government stimulus checks in hand, they looked beyond their immediate surroundings and invested every cent into building an overseas video editing team, discovering a goldmine of untapped talent in the Philippines.
This move was initially to support their own content creation, a venture that proved wildly successful, rocketing them to 2 million YouTube subscribers and accumulating over a billion views in a single year. They quickly realized the system they had built—a rigorous process for finding, screening, and training elite Filipino video editors—was a powerful solution that others desperately needed. They had cracked the code to accessing world-class creative talent at a fraction of the cost of US-based editors. And so, Clipt.co was officially launched. It transformed from an internal process into a full-fledged staffing agency dedicated to helping creators, startups, and media companies build their own content machines. By connecting businesses with the top 1% of overseas editors, Clipt.co empowers them to scale video production faster, smarter, and more affordably, handling all the complexities of hiring, payroll, and taxes, allowing clients to focus solely on creation.
