Every subject in the shot. Found, named, and held.
Nx Nexus is a subject-tracking engine. Drop it on a clip and it finds the people, vehicles, animals and objects in the shot, gives each one a name and a number, and holds on to them as they move. No analysis pass and no keyframes.
From there it builds the rest: a cinematic HUD, AI mattes cut to each subject’s outline, depth from a single camera, twenty effects that follow the subject, a rim glow and a rack focus, natively inside DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, After Effects, Final Cut Pro and Motion.

Key features
A neural detector that knows eighty everyday objects: people, vehicles, animals, bags, sports gear, street objects. Each detection arrives with a name, and a twelve-way class filter keeps only what matters.
Every subject gets a number and keeps it through crossings, crowds and camera moves. Up to sixty-four at once, each one something you can point an effect at.
A small, very fast dedicated face model for interviews, crowds and privacy work.
Luminance, Edges, Saturation, Select Color, Bright Spots and Dark Spots, for lights, colours, reflections and shapes with no name at all.
Seven frame styles, ten centre markers, six connection patterns with six line routings and five arrowheads, and labels that stack themselves apart in a crowd.
Every subject cut to its own outline: hair, fingers, the gap between an arm and a body. No roto and no keyframes, and it follows the whole clip.
A depth map estimated from a single camera. Fog, rack focus and depth mattes all read from it.
Pixelate, blur, spotlight, thermal, night vision, hologram, halftone, ink sketch, dither and more, each one able to stop at the subject’s silhouette instead of its box.
Rim one chosen subject along its real silhouette and leave everybody else plain.
Send the matte or the depth out as an image or in the alpha channel, or render the overlays alone over transparency.
Click a subject in the viewer to choose it in Resolve, After Effects and Final Cut Pro; in Premiere Pro you type its number. The mattes, glow, effects and channels follow that choice.
