Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, 20 October 2026. GuifiLab, the software label of Guifi, today releases edelkrone control: a Mac app that runs a complete edelkrone camera motion rig from one screen. The official edelkrone app is built for one phone and one unit at a time. edelkrone control drives every connected unit simultaneously, each with its own top speed that the app enforces.

“Motion control demands repeatability. edelkrone control turns a complete rig into one instrument: every move can be repeated exactly, from one screen.”

Martin, product specialist at GuifiLab

Supported are the HeadPLUS v3 (including PRO), HeadONE v2, SliderPLUS v6, JibPLUS, DollyPLUS v2, the Focus/Zoom Module (focus) and the Tripod X PRO. From the app, single units can be linked into a Krone S or Krone X.

Scenes, moves and routes

Operators save twelve scenes for the whole rig, including tripod height and focus. One click sends every unit back to its mark, optionally in a fixed time so everything arrives together. Moves are recorded per unit and combined into multi-track moves, with delay, size and tempo per track. Ready-made routes such as reveal, crane, parallax and jib swing are built in, as are runs: scenes in sequence, with pauses, once or looping.

Where the SDK reports position, the app corrects along the way. It learns how fast each axis of each unit really moves and plans every move accordingly. Limits can be set for slider, pan and tilt: the unit slows down and stops there, and can run back and forth with separate speeds each way.

Controls like on set

Control comes from a PS4 or PS5 controller over Bluetooth or USB, the keyboard (QWERTY, AZERTY or QWERTZ), or a DaVinci Resolve Micro Panel, where each trackball drives a unit or part of the rig. For the control room the app generates a ready-made Bitfocus Companion page: a Stream Deck starts scenes and moves, and its buttons light up with the rig's status. A second Mac on the same network can run the rig too, protected by an access code.

Safety comes first: when the operator lets go or the connection drops, everything stops within half a second. The space bar always stops.

Availability and pricing

edelkrone control is available from today at guifilab.com and guifilab.nl. The Licence costs €79 for the first year when ordered by 30 November, then €129 per year, for 1 Mac. Studio costs €149 for the first year, then €199 per year, for 4 Macs with priority support. Prices exclude VAT. A free demo with simulated Krone S, Krone X and single units shows every feature, even without edelkrone gear.

System requirements

A Mac with macOS 13 or later and Bluetooth. The app is available in English and Dutch and updates itself. edelkrone control is built on the official edelkrone SDK; GuifiLab is not affiliated with edelkrone.

Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, 20 October 2026. GuifiLab, the software label of Guifi, today launches guifilab.com and guifilab.nl. GuifiLab develops software for video production and WordPress, born out of the practice of Guifi, specialists in video and websites.

“This software was born in the practice of video and web production. Now we are making it available to other professionals.”

Martin, product specialist at GuifiLab

Video tools

Subtitle Studio subtitles video automatically and entirely on the Mac, with an editor that checks reading speed, line length and overlap per line. Footage never goes to a cloud service. Subtitle Studio can be tried free on 3 of your own videos with the complete Pro workflow.

edelkrone control runs a complete edelkrone camera motion rig from one Mac: heads, slider, jib, dolly and tripod together, with scenes, moves and routes, and control through a PlayStation controller, Stream Deck or DaVinci Resolve Micro Panel. 14 days money back.

Social Guidelines (safe zones for TikTok, Reels and Shorts in DaVinci Resolve and Premiere Pro) and Archive Index (finding media across drives and folders) are in beta.

WordPress modules

For WordPress, GuifiLab develops modules that run locally on the site's own server: Forms Shield (spam protection without CAPTCHA), Content Checklist (outdated content next to traffic from Search Console and GA4), Content Experiments, Alt Text Review, the WCAG meta tag checker, AI Text Assistant, a video player and Search & Chatbot. The modules are in beta; access can be requested on the site.

Licences and payment

Licences are per Mac and activated in the app; switching Macs is always possible. Payment by iDEAL, credit card, Apple Pay and Bancontact. Both sites are fully available in English and Dutch.

Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, 18 October 2026. GuifiLab, the software label of Guifi, has released Subtitle Studio 4.7. The Mac app transcribes video locally, times every line and delivers subtitles ready to hand over, without uploading footage to a cloud service. That matters for editors working under NDA, for broadcasters and for anyone handling interviews and unreleased material.

“Subtitles have to be right, and the footage belongs to the client. Subtitle Studio delivers both: professional quality control, entirely on your own Mac.”

Martin, product specialist at GuifiLab

What's new

Lines stay on screen long enough to read: where there is room, a line stays up to 1.5 seconds longer, but never over the next one. After a pause, a new sentence or a new speaker starts on its own subtitle. Subtitles after a piece of music start when speech resumes, and for SDH [music] covers the whole music passage. Ordinary words no longer get stray capitals in the middle of a sentence.

AI options are only on when they actually work, and the app checks by itself whether an AI key is still valid. Installing is a matter of dragging the icon to Applications. Presets have clear names, such as Standard, Streaming and Social short.

Languages

Subtitle Studio supports 22 tested languages. In addition, 78 languages are available as an experimental option: GuifiLab has not tested them, but with clear audio they often work well.

Editor and export

The editor checks reading speed, line length and overlap per line, and exports SRT and VTT, including timecode offsets for DaVinci Resolve. A word list keeps names and terminology consistent. Pro adds AI correction, which runs free on the Mac itself or through the user's own key with OpenAI, Claude, Gemini or Mistral (EU-hosted), plus automatic translation, bilingual subtitles and, in the same run, a 9:16 version for social.

Availability and pricing

Subtitle Studio can be tried free on 3 of your own videos with the complete Pro workflow, using a personal trial key after sign-up. Budget costs €69 per year (Dutch and English, 1 Mac). Pro costs €149 per year, €99 for the first year when ordered by 30 November, or €19.99 per month, for 2 Macs. Prices exclude VAT. Existing users get 4.7 as an in-app update.

System requirements

A Mac with Apple silicon and macOS 13 or later.

Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, 12 October 2026. GuifiLab, the software label of Guifi, has released Subtitle Studio 4.6.39, which includes a trial. Anyone evaluating Subtitle Studio can subtitle 3 of their own videos with everything Pro does: AI correction, automatic translation, bilingual subtitles and the 9:16 version for social. No payment details are needed. Usage is counted per Mac, on GuifiLab's licence server.

“Subtitle quality is best judged on your own material. That is why we offer the complete Pro workflow free of charge on three videos.”

Martin, product specialist at GuifiLab

Choose where the AI runs

Since version 4.6.37 users choose where AI correction runs: free on the Mac itself, without a key and without text leaving the computer, or in the cloud with their own key for OpenAI, Claude, Gemini or Mistral (EU). The AI model is only downloaded when it is actually needed.

The same version introduced a shared word list: general corrections that apply to everyone, while client names and brands stay in the user's own list.

Availability

The trial can be downloaded from guifilab.com and guifilab.nl from the launch on 20 October 2026. Existing users get the update in the app.

Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, 9 October 2026. GuifiLab, the software label of Guifi, today releases the first beta of edelkrone control: a Mac app that runs a complete edelkrone rig from one screen. Where the official edelkrone app is built for one phone, edelkrone control drives heads, slider, jib and dolly at the same time.

“The edelkrone SDK makes real motion control on the Mac possible. With this beta we lay the foundation for full control of the entire rig.”

Martin, product specialist at GuifiLab

What the beta does

All connected units can be operated simultaneously, each with its own top speed. Scenes capture the position of the whole rig and restore it with one click. Movements are recorded per unit and replayed as moves, and ready-made routes such as a pan, reveal or crane are built in.

The app is built on the official edelkrone SDK, which edelkrone made available shortly before. GuifiLab is not affiliated with edelkrone.

Availability

The beta is free for testers. Licences and sales follow later this autumn. The app requires a Mac with Bluetooth.

Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, 4 September 2026. GuifiLab, the software label of Guifi, today introduces three WordPress modules: Forms Shield, Content Checklist and Content Experiments. The modules are centrally maintained; sites that use them receive new versions automatically.

“Privacy and findability are no longer an afterthought. These modules give site owners control over both, without depending on external services.”

Martin, product specialist at GuifiLab

Forms Shield

Forms Shield stops form spam without making visitors solve puzzles. It runs entirely on the site's own server: no reCAPTCHA, no tracking cookies and no external anti-bot services, and no raw IP address is ever stored. It also catches bots that submit forms bypassing the page, and puts suspicious submissions in quarantine instead of discarding them, so no genuine enquiries are lost. Forms Shield works with Gravity Forms and Elementor Pro Forms.

Content Checklist

Content Checklist puts the last-modified date of pages next to clicks, impressions, average position and views from Search Console and GA4, up to 25,000 URLs at a time. It shows what has been untouched for 6 months, 1 year or 2 years and which titles contain an outdated year. The list exports to CSV; what can go is removed with a redirect in one action.

Content Experiments

Content Experiments measures what a copy change achieves, with privacy-free before and after baselines around every editorial change, without tracking visitors. Every variant can be checked through Content Checklist.

End of press release

Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, 23 July 2026. GuifiLab, the software label of Guifi, extends Subtitle Studio with bilingual subtitling, SDH and subtitles aligned to the script. Pro is now also available monthly, next to Budget and Pro yearly.

“Accessibility and multiple languages belong in every professional video. With this release you handle both in one pass.”

Martin, product specialist at GuifiLab

Bilingual and accessible

Bilingual subtitles can be chosen per video: the second language is freely selectable and is translated automatically during processing. For SDH, subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing, Subtitle Studio marks music and sounds automatically, such as [music]. Stray sound words are removed from the spoken text.

Aligned to the script

With Original text, Subtitle Studio aligns the subtitles to a supplied script, word by word. Names and wording match exactly while the timing of the speech is kept. The result comes as an extra version next to the regular subtitles.

Also new

Presets for streaming and social, with up to 4 lines for vertical video. Data-loss protection in the editor: an empty version never overwrites existing work. Updates can now be installed directly from the app, keeping all settings.

Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, 13 June 2026. GuifiLab, the software label of Guifi, today releases Subtitle Studio 4.6, with a redesigned editor for checking and refining subtitles.

“A good editor lets the professional do the work. In 4.6 we removed everything that got in the way.”

Martin, product specialist at GuifiLab

A calmer workspace

The workspace collapses to what is needed at that moment. A new side panel shows at a glance which videos are done, and the status is visible as soon as a video opens.

Precise editing

Merging and cutting cues has been made robust: words move correctly across cue boundaries, so nothing shifts or gets lost while editing. A navigation bar counts lines that are on screen too briefly, steps through them one by one and can fix them all at once.

Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, 6 May 2026. GuifiLab, the software label of Guifi, adds twin export to Subtitle Studio: one transcription delivers subtitles for both 16:9 and 9:16. Anyone publishing the same video on YouTube and as a Reel or Short makes both versions in one run, each with line lengths that suit the format.

“Video is now published both horizontally and vertically. Subtitle Studio delivers both subtitle versions in one pass.”

Martin, product specialist at GuifiLab

Faster to deliver

Several videos can be uploaded at once by dragging them into the window. They are processed one after another, locally on the Mac.

Better transcription

Common errors in Dutch transcription are corrected automatically, keeping capitals where they belong. A filter stops text that speech recognition invents during silence or music. Dangling sentence starts at the end of a line move to the next subtitle, so every line reads well.

For DaVinci Resolve, Subtitle Studio handles timecode offsets and exports VTT alongside SRT.
