Audit the active timeline
Run a focused scan on the sequence you are preparing to export instead of checking an entire project by hand.
Premiere Pro timeline quality control
Check your Premiere Pro timeline before export
Timeline Inspector gives editors a focused, read-only preflight before the final render. Scan the active timeline in one click, review what it finds, and keep the edit untouched.
What is Timeline Inspector?
Timeline Inspector is a Premiere Pro timeline checker that audits the active sequence before export. It works in read-only mode, so it can surface potential problems without moving clips, changing edits, or applying automatic fixes. The editor reviews every reported item and decides which corrections belong in the sequence.
Capabilities
Built for a specific editing job
Keep the edit unchanged
Timeline Inspector reports what it finds in read-only mode. It does not move clips or rewrite the timeline.
Review before the render
Use the scan as a final quality-control step while there is still time to inspect and correct the sequence.
Inspection scope
Problems Timeline Inspector can detect
The verified product catalogue does not yet enumerate the individual check categories. Timeline Inspector is confirmed to scan the active timeline and report potential problems in read-only mode, but this page intentionally does not name specific detections until that list is verified.

Questions about Timeline Inspector
Does Timeline Inspector change my Premiere Pro timeline?
No. Timeline Inspector is designed as a read-only audit. It scans the active sequence and reports findings without moving clips or applying edits.
When should I run a timeline audit?
Run it after the edit is substantially complete and before the final export, then review the findings alongside your normal visual and audio quality-control process.
Is Timeline Inspector a replacement for watching the final export?
No. It adds a repeatable technical preflight, but editors should still watch and listen to the final output before delivery.
