How it works

Jump cuts in 4 steps

  1. 1

    Open the Audio tab

    Load a talking video and transcribe it as usual.

  2. 2

    Find pauses

    Set the shortest pause and the space to keep around speech. The button shows how many pauses and how much time before you cut.

  3. 3

    Cut filler words

    See the hesitations listed ("um" ×12, "uh" ×5), keep any kind you want, and cut the rest.

  4. 4

    Check and export

    Playback jumps over the cuts. Undo any cut, then export the shorter video.

The details

What you get

Words are never clipped

Time under a transcribed word is never cut, even if the voice detector heard nothing there.

Captions follow the cut

Cut filler words leave the captions too, and the captions around them keep their lines.

Picture and sound in sync

Both are cut at the same frame boundaries and joined, so lips stay in sync to the end.

No clicks at the joins

The sound fades over 12 ms on either side of each cut, too short to hear as a fade.

See every cut

Cuts show hatched on the timeline, with a count and the time removed. Remove one or all of them any time.

Subtitles match too

SRT and transparent exports follow the shortened timeline.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Something else on your mind? Contact us and a real person will reply.

Can I keep some filler words?

Yes. The filler words are listed by kind, with a count for each. Click a kind to keep it, then cut the rest.

Why does Whisper miss some "um"s?

Whisper usually tidies "um" and "uh" away. Switch on "Keep filler words" in the Media tab before transcribing so they are written down and can be cut. The cloud engines follow it most reliably.

Can I undo a cut?

Yes. Undo removes a cut, and Remove all cuts clears them. Cuts are saved with the project.

Is it on the Free plan?

You can find pauses, cut, and play the result on the Free plan. Exporting a cut video needs Captixa Pro; on Free you can export the uncut video instead.
