Cut the ums. Keep the story.
Whether you ship a video every week or you're making your very first one, Cutgraph lets you edit by reading. No credit meter, no upload, and a little cartoon camera when the story needs one.
Bring the footage, I'll bring the faces.
Cleanup without scrubbing the waveform.
You already know what you said. Now you can see it. Strike the false starts, accept the filler-word proposal in one click, and the captions follow the same words.
- Cut by deleting wordsShipped
Drag across a sentence, press Cut, play. Ctrl+Z if you change your mind.
- Filler-word cleanupShipped
The co-pilot marks ums, false starts and repeats; you accept them as one undo step. Needs your Anthropic key, and some fillers slip past speech recognition.
- Burned-in captionsShipped
A few words at a time, active word highlighted, identical in preview and export.
- Landscape and vertical togetherShipped
YouTube, Shorts and Reels, and square from one edit. Animated scenes recompose for 9:16; talking-head footage is centre-cropped (face-tracked reframing is in preview).
- Start from an ideaShipped
Paste a script, or describe your idea and let the co-pilot draft one with a storyboard.
- Record the narrationShipped
Read it out and the words time themselves to your voice.
- Animation by picking, not keyframingShipped
Choose an expression, pose and move for Lens, or describe the shot in words and review the critic notes.
From a sentence to a first video.
You don't need footage, or a timeline, or a course. Type the idea, read it aloud, and direct a character that already knows how to act. The co-pilot can help at every step, and it can only suggest.
Client calls, unreleased work, your kids.
Transcription, editing and rendering run on your machine. Studio only accepts connections from your own computer and has no telemetry. The co-pilot is optional, and sends text, never media.
Honest limits for pros
- No round-trip to Premiere or Resolve yet.
- No colour grading or effects stack: Cutgraph is for talk-driven edits.
- English transcription only.
- Single user, single machine.
