Why TextCut

Built for people who hate editing.

⏱️

6 minutes → 2 minutes, no timeline

I had a 6-minute raw recording. I deleted the bad parts from the transcript. Got a 2-minute video without ever touching a timeline.

🔇

Kill silence in one click

Click Shorten All — every pause gets trimmed. Half my recording was dead air. Gone in one click.

👀

Spot retakes by reading

Split the transcript into paragraphs. Read through it. See where you stumbled and said the same thing three times. Delete the bad takes, keep the best one.

🤖

Let AI cut it for you

Everything is stored as a text file. Point Claude Code or any AI agent at it — it finds retakes and fillers automatically. Open the app to verify.

💸

Costs almost nothing to transcribe

Uses AssemblyAI — 15 cents per hour. They give you $50 free. I made 10+ videos and spent less than $2.

🔒

No cloud upload. No account. No subscription. Just a Mac app.

One price. No surprises.

Pay once, own it forever. No subscription, no cloud, no drama.
