Marker to Reminder

Marker to Reminder bridges Final Cut Pro and Apple Reminders, turning your timeline markers into actionable tasks you can track anywhere.

THE PROBLEM

Video editors use markers to flag issues while editing: "fix audio here," "color correct this shot," "sync issue at 2:15." But those markers live trapped inside Final Cut Pro. You can't see them on your iPhone, share them with a team, or check them off as you work.

THE SOLUTION

Marker to Reminder extracts your markers and creates real Reminders—complete with timecodes so you know exactly where to go. Work through your edit, check off tasks in Reminders, and never lose track of what needs fixing.

KEY FEATURES

• Works Inside Final Cut Pro
Appears as a Workflow Extension (Window → Extensions). Drag your project, click a button, done. No exporting or file hunting.

• Intelligent Marker Recognition
Automatically detects four marker types: standard markers, to-do markers (red), completed markers (green), and chapter markers. Route each type to different Reminders lists or ignore them entirely.

• Timecode Precision
Each reminder includes the exact timecode where the marker lives. Jump right back to the problem spot in your timeline.

• Multi-Account Support
Works with all your Reminders accounts—iCloud, Exchange, local lists. Route work tasks to your work account, personal projects to personal.

• Smart Duplicate Detection
Already created reminders for a project? Import again without worry. Duplicates are automatically skipped.

• Privacy First
All processing happens locally on your Mac. No cloud services, no data collection, no account required.
