The problem

Creating videos is essential - but traditional editing tools push you into timelines, layers, and endless retakes.

  • Retake spirals: “start over from the top”
  • Timeline friction: tiny cuts, zooming, dragging
  • Editing burnout that kills consistency

The SpeechCut way

If you can edit text, you can edit video. SpeechCut aligns your words to your footage so edits are as simple as toggling phrases.

  • Talk naturally once
  • Tap words to remove them from the video
  • Export a clean clip and post

Three steps

From raw recording to ready-to-post in minutes.

1

Record or import

Talk naturally once (or import an existing clip). No “perfect take” required.
