Field notes
The displayed workflow moves from an uploaded or selected video to codec-specific measurements, a frame inspector, and an issue list. Its sample artifact is unusually concrete: sample_hevc_1080p.mp4 runs for 30 seconds, covers 900 frames, and reports two issues alongside QP and VMAF readings. The page also names Articles, Docs, Pricing, and Download, while a beta invitation suggests that the full product may still be gated or under active development.
