Edit videos by editing the transcript. transcriptcut is a local-first, open-source video editor where deleting words or sections automatically cuts the matching video. It also detects filler words and long pauses, supports captions, filters, effects, logos, and MP4 export. No cloud account, no AI chat bar — just explicit, predictable editing with focused AI assistance.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I built transcriptcut around a simple idea: editing a video should feel as easy as editing a document.
Delete words from the transcript → the matching part of the video is cut.
It’s local-first, open source, and intentionally avoids a generic “ask AI to edit” chat. AI is only used for focused tasks like identifying ambiguous filler words.
I’d love your feedback: what would you want to see in a transcript-first video editor? 🎬
