FireCut for DaVinci Resolve - Your lightning-fast AI video editor

@suhail_idrees1 Does it work with Free version on DaVinci Resolve?

@suhail_idrees1 Congrats on the launch! What free options do you offer?
I can't find anything on the website, at least to try. We are currently using capcut. :)

@suhail_idrees1 nice work! 🙌

@busmark_w_nika It's getting there... slowly but surely! What I love about the DaVinci team is that they're building fast and are responsive to feedback. And best of all, their plugins/scripts platform has allowed us to automate a lot of tasks for users. We wouldn't be here without their openness to work with the wider developer community!

@sepharoth  @fernando_scharnick You got it! That's EXACTLY our mission - bring the automation to your existing workflow, not force you to change how you work.

The unexpected time-saver is definitely our Chapter detection feature [🔗 link]. It finds you the main topics being spoken about in a video so you can put timestamps in your video description, as well as create a nice title animation that plays at the beginning of each chapter. When you're editing a multi-hour video, the time saved on watching the whole thing manually really stacks up!

Thanks for your support Fernando!!

@yogesh_joshi9  Thanks Yogesh, appreciate your support! 🫶

@abod_rehman Thank you!!

Good question - FireCut can indeed do multi-camera edits in DaVinci Resolve. Here's a short demo of this feature: FireCut Multi-track auto editing

@cruise_chen Hi Cruise, thanks for stopping by and supporting us! Both of those features have had about 2 years or iteration and improvement "in the field" with users so they generally are big time savers.

For Repetition removal, we do a text similarity search to find the duplicate takes but (because video editors using Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve are generally tech savvy) we've actually exposed the detection settings for the user to fine-tune if needed. We've also recently added an "auto-accept last takes" button which deleted all repetitions except the last, because that's generally going to be the best one.

For Chapter detection, we've used a pipeline that involves an LLM and we've been fine-tuning this for a long time to get a good outcome! Something unexpected: we had intended this feature to be used for creating title animation slides (for every chapter) once you've already cut down your video close to a final version, BUT many users also use it at the start of their editing process just to help them understand what's in the video without needing to watch the whole thing. One thing we've recently also added is a setting to nudge the LLM towards a target number of chapters (for situations where you might have a very long video, but don't want 15 chapters for your YouTube edit).

Hope that explains a bit about the inner workings :)

@pasha_tseluyko Thank you Pavel, really appreciate your support! To be honest we owe it to our beta users more than anything - pretty much every feature is inspired by a request from a beta user :)

@polyinnovator Thanks for your support, Dustin! It was great meeting you at VidSummit this year! 🌟

@alexcloudstar Alex, tell me about it 😅 That's exactly where the idea came from. We sat down with our video editors (for Ali's YouTube channel) and talked through the biggest time sinks, and then tackled them one-by-one.

You're not alone on the podcasts - many of our users use FireCut for exactly that (screenshot from our reviews page)

@jackyliu Appreciate your feedback and the kind words! Really impressed by how you've taken on the challenge of AI video creation. We've thought of our mission as really focusing on just the editing step (no content generation, filming, or rendering) and making it as automated as possible, so plugging into a mature software like Premiere or Resolve made sense!

Thank you for supporting our launch 🙏
