Rebuild supported title text, line breaks, alignment, colour, size and position as editable Premiere Pro XML that stays close to the original. Turn the remaining visual differences into timecoded review information and a ready-to-share AI editing request.
macOS 14+ · Apple Silicon · Apple-notarised Free diagnosis · Try one XML export
The workflow shown below uses the actual application screens.
Drag the .fcpxml or .fcpxmld file created with Final Cut Pro's Export XML command into the window. Final Cut Pro does not need to remain open.
After writing the XML, Conform lists places that may look or behave differently, with the item name, timecode, and affected range.
Import the XML into Premiere Pro. Cuts and titles are placed on the timeline, and items requiring review can be located through Premiere markers, the timecoded report and the AI editing request.
Transfer a project edited in Final Cut Pro when an agency or client requires delivery in Premiere Pro.
Hand a Final Cut Pro timeline to an editor or finishing artist who works in Premiere Pro.
Convert an existing project and use its timecodes to find the places that need review in Premiere Pro.
Conform rebuilds what can remain editable in Premiere Pro and organises the remaining differences for both people and AI assistants.
Conform rebuilds supported title text, line breaks, alignment, colour, and calibrated size and position as editable Premiere Pro text.
A bilingual work instruction is saved beside the XML with item names, timecodes, affected ranges and comparison steps. It tells the assistant not to guess, to preserve editability and to report the changes actually made.
Edits that may not transfer exactly are shown in the application, a timecoded report and Premiere markers. Unsupported elements do not stop the rest of the conversion.
See how the Conform result and a third-party converter compare with the Final Cut Pro original at matching timecodes.
Test conditions: the same FCPXML source, 1920×1080, 30 fps. Neither converted result was manually corrected. Comparison Tool A is a placeholder name for one third-party converter. Tested by ZUNO WORKS on 28 August 2026.
Comparison Tool A is a third-party converter for several editing applications. Conform treats the Premiere Pro result and the work needed to finish remaining differences as one handoff.
| Point | Comparison Tool A | Conform 1.0.3 |
|---|---|---|
| Destinations | Creates Final Cut Pro 7 XML for multiple editing workflows | Creates editable XML specifically for a Premiere Pro handoff |
| During translation | Choose an FCPXML file, translate it and save the new XML | Creates the XML while detecting known elements that cannot transfer exactly or need approximation |
| Titles | Public specifications describe conversion to Outline Text | Rebuilds supported text, line breaks, alignment, colour, size and position as editable Premiere Pro text |
| After translation | Review Premiere Pro's Translation Report | Continue review and correction from the timecoded report, Premiere markers and AI editing request |
Products tested: Comparison Tool A 1.2.47 and Conform 1.0.3. ZUNO WORKS tested both with the same FCPXML on 28 August 2026. Results apply to the project shown.

macOS 14 or later, Apple Silicon. It does not run on Intel Macs. No Homebrew, Command Line Tools or other developer tools are required. Importing the XML into Premiere Pro for Windows has not been tested and is outside the current supported matrix. |
Detected missing or approximated elements are shown in the application and saved as a report beside the XML. Premiere markers identify the affected ranges.
Common questions before purchase.
Yes. You can run the diagnosis and export one editable XML file free. Review the result from your own project in Premiere Pro before purchase.
Conform transfers cuts, references to source media files, track order, levels, and the text and line breaks of titles. The media files themselves are not embedded in the XML. A Motion template's 3D appearance, tracking, leading, and transitions other than Cross Dissolve are outside the conversion scope. Detected unsupported elements are listed by item name, timecode and affected range.
Yes. Elements implemented differently by Final Cut Pro and Premiere Pro may change in appearance or behaviour. Conform lists the items it detects in the application and report. Compare the converted result with the original before delivery.
It is a bilingual Markdown file saved beside the converted XML. It contains the item names, timecodes and affected ranges to review, instructions for comparing against the original, the allowed scope of work and the completion evidence to return. Conform creates the instruction file; it does not launch an AI or operate Premiere Pro by itself.
Conform runs on Apple Silicon Macs with macOS 14 or later. Importing the generated XML into Premiere Pro for Windows is untested and outside the current support guarantee.
No. Pay US$49.99 once and there is no limit on exports after that. No account or continuous internet connection is required.
DaVinci Resolve and Avid are outside the current support guarantee. Premiere Pro is the primary target. In Adobe Audition, import and playback have been verified for audio tracks, track names and levels.
Current updates are included in the purchase price. The direct website edition updates from within the application. The Mac App Store edition updates through the App Store.
ZUNO WORKS built Conform from its own post-production workflow.
Conform was developed to reduce rework when a project edited in Final Cut Pro must be delivered in Premiere Pro. It keeps supported title appearance close while preserving editability, then turns remaining differences into instructions that can be handed to either a person or an AI assistant.
Known unsupported elements are listed under What it covers. Detected items are recorded in Premiere markers and a timecoded report. The comparison video includes the test conditions and product versions used.
ZUNO WORKS, K.K. is based in Kahoku, Ishikawa, Japan. Distributed builds are signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarised by Apple. See Online sale information for company details or use the contact form for product enquiries.
