The link in bio built for video editors
Your proof plays, it doesn't sit still. Folio runs your edits in full quality on the page, with a private way to take the deposit before you open the timeline.

For a freelance video editor the best link in bio is one where the edits play on the page itself. Folio runs your reel in full quality on a designed grid, links the channels you cut for and keeps your deposit details behind a password. It's free, and Folio never touches your money.
Your work is buried on other people's channels.
An editor's portfolio is scattered across clients' YouTube channels and TikTok accounts, with nothing that says which cuts are yours. Sending a client three channel links and "I did most of the recent ones" is how good editors lose jobs to louder ones. The client hiring from X or a creator Discord decides in one scroll, and a wall of links they have to cross-reference isn't a scroll, it's homework. Your page has to put your name on your cuts and press play without leaving the tab.
The blocks that matter for you.
Upload a short showreel or your two best edits so they play right on the page, full quality, no compression mush. Link the channels you cut for with a note on your role, so the receipts are one tap away. Add your turnaround and revision terms in a text block, because the clients you want read terms before they DM, and a Pay-Me block for the deposit. X or wherever your clients find you closes the loop.
What to put in your link in bio as a video editor
- 1
A showreel that plays on the page
Sixty seconds of your best cuts, uploaded directly so it plays in the grid. Nobody clicks through to a Drive link.
- 2
Two or three full edits
The reel proves taste, a full edit proves you can hold pacing for eight minutes. Upload them or link the videos.
- 3
The channels you cut for
Link each channel with your role next to it, "every video since March" is specific enough to check and honest enough to trust.
- 4
Turnaround and revision terms
A text block with your delivery time and how many revisions are included. It filters the one-more-tweak clients before they arrive.
- 5
A Pay-Me block for the deposit
Your payment details behind a password, so "send the footage" and "send the deposit" happen in the same message.

Paste the link everywhere
X bio, Discord servers, the reply you send when a creator asks "got a portfolio?"
Deposit before the first cut.
Editing is where scope creep lives, the "one more revision" client is a genre of their own. A per-edit deposit protects your week, and Pay-Me makes asking for it painless: share the password when the footage lands, start cutting when the deposit does. For retainer clients the same link collects the monthly payment before the batch starts. The client pays you directly, no platform fee and no invoice tool in the middle. You keep 100%, Folio never touches the money.
Questions
Can my edits play on the page?
Yes. Upload video and it plays right in the grid, full quality, no compression mush.
How do I prove which videos are mine?
Pair each channel link with a note on your role, and lead with a reel you cut yourself. Your page is the one place on the internet where your name is on the work.
How do I take a deposit per edit?
Share your Pay-Me password when the client sends footage. They pay the deposit directly to you, then you start the edit. No fee, no cut.
What about monthly retainer clients?
Same link every month. Your details stay behind the password, so the retainer payment is a routine, not a chase.
Can I link TikToks and Shorts too?
Yes. Add them as links next to your uploaded edits, so the platform work stays one tap away.
Is it really free?
Yes. Free, no paywall, no transaction fees and no credit card to start.
One link away from your next client.
Claim your handle and give clients one link with everything they need to hire you.
