# Timeliner vs Frame.io

Frame.io pioneered cloud-based video review. Timeliner builds on that foundation with project management, client portals, analytics, and payment tracking - everything video teams need beyond review.

## Why Teams Switch from Frame.io

Frame.io excels at video review but stops there. Growing teams need a platform that also handles project management, client communication, team performance tracking, and billing - without stitching together three or four separate tools.

## What Timeliner Adds

Timeliner combines Frame.io-style video review with full project management, client approval portals, team KPI dashboards, and payment tracking. One platform, one subscription, one source of truth.

## When Frame.io Might Be Better

If your workflow centers on Adobe Creative Cloud with heavy Premiere/After Effects integration, Frame.io's native panel offers a tighter editing-to-review loop. For teams that only need review with no PM layer, Frame.io is a solid choice.
