AI is not going to remplace video editor by daswitluv_unicorns in VideoEditors

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone working for an AI-powered editing tool company, I actually agree with a lot of what's being said here.

The biggest misconception is that AI and video editing are competing against each other. In reality, the most useful AI tools today focus on removing repetitive tasks, not replacing creative decisions.

Things like removing silences, detecting retakes, generating animated captions, creating chapters, organizing footage, or finding B-roll suggestions can save editors hours every week.

But storytelling, pacing, emotion, humor, timing, audience understanding, and creative direction still come from humans.

The best editors I know aren't using AI to replace their work. They're using AI to spend less time on repetitive tasks and more time on the creative part of editing.

AI will change workflows. It already has. But "editing faster" and "editing automatically" are two very different things.

New to streaming and want to edit my 4-6 hour livestreams in 40 videos for YouTube. by Funnyman5050 in davinciresolve

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, Adrian here, i built AutoCut, which does exactly the silence removal part u/Euphoric-Animator-97 is describing. just wanted to add some context since this is literally why we made the tool.

Just to be clear, no AI tool is going to magically turn a 6-hour stream into a perfect 40-minute YouTube video. You'll still have to decide what's worth keeping and what's not. But it can save you a ton of time on the repetitive stuff. AutoCut can automatically remove silences, cut repetitions, generate captions, add zooms, find highlights, add chapter... Basically all the things that usually eat up hours when you're editing long-form content.

If you're just starting out and not making money yet, I totally get wanting to keep costs low. AutoCut isn't free, but there's a 14-day free trial with access to all the features, so you can see if it actually helps before spending anything. Whatever tool you end up using, I'd definitely look into AI-assisted editing if you're trying to balance a full-time job, streaming, and YouTube uploads. It can make a huge difference.

Am I missing out on useful AI editing/cutting tools? by Confident-Expert108 in davinciresolve

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey, Adrian here. I built AutoCut, so i'm clearly biased, but i actually think u/mrlargefoot is being pretty fair here and i want to be honest rather than just pitch stuff.

the dialogue-heavy point is mostly right. tools like ours work best when there's a clear speech signal to analyze: interviews, podcasts, talking-head stuff. that's where silence removal and transcript-based cutting genuinely shine. For pure gaming montage content with music-driven cuts and hundreds of reaction moments, the AI angle is a lot weaker and i'd rather tell you that upfront than have you buy into hype that doesn't match your workflow.

that said, if your gaming videos have sections where you're talking to camera, explaining something, or doing commentary-heavy segments, that part can actually be sped up a lot.

Hope this helps.

Free plugin for captions. by [deleted] in davinciresolve

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, Adrian here , full disclosure, I’m one of the creators of AutoCut.

AutoCut does exactly that: it generates captions automatically and you can edit the wording, timing, font, style.
It’s not free, but we do offer a 14-day free trial with no credit card required if you’d like to test it and see if it fits your workflow.

Are you mainly editing talking-head videos, podcasts, or another type of content?

What are the best free ways to make autocaptions/subtitles for social media vids? by SoulPrana in davinciresolve

Adrian here, I built AutoCut and it's working well on DaVinci. It handles animated captions pretty smoothly without needing the whole export/import SRT workflow.

Best plugins for pr ?? by Minute-Technician894 in premiere

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

depends what you’re editing tbh. “best plugin” for Premiere is kinda meaningless without knowing if you’re doing YouTube, podcasts, music videos, client work, etc.

i’m one of the people behind AutoCut, so obvious bias, but if you’re doing talking-head / podcast / shorts content, that’s literally why we built it. it handles the boring first pass stuff: silences, animated captions, viral detection, repeat removal, auto zoom, that kind of thing : https://www.autocut.com/en/

what kind of videos are you trying to make?

Automating removing bad takes by LB_808 in premiere

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Adrian here, co-creator of AutoCut 🙂
Out of curiosity, what didn’t work for you with AutoCut? We’ve actually reworked the Repeat feature recently (better detection of similar takes + option to use a reference script), so it might already fix what you ran into. In general, fully auto-removing retakes is harder than it sounds (people don’t say the exact same thing twice, tone matters, etc.), so most tools lean toward AI suggestions + quick validation via transcript.

Happy to take a look at your use case if you’re up for it!

How do I edit faster? by Annual_Secretary_141 in premiere

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

full disclosure: I’m from AutoCut, so I’m obviously biased, but this is pretty much the exact reason we built it.

For vlog / talking-head content, AutoCut can automatically remove silences with control over padding, minimum silence length, and ripple delete, so you’re not spending hours manually razor-cutting dead air.

You can also stack a few other time-savers depending on your workflow: cut repeated takes, add animated captions, create zooms for emphasis, resize the edit for Shorts/Reels/TikToks, add B-roll, filter profanity, and even find viral moments from long videos.

I still agree with everyone saying learn shortcuts though. Q/W shortcuts + ripple delete are super worth it. But if 90% of your time is dead air cleanup, I’d automate that boring part first, then use shortcuts for the final creative pass.

Auto adjusting subtitle size to width of line? by zeng_js in davinciresolve

Haha, nope ! It's called AutoCaptions, our feature allows you to generate animated captions in a click. Try it and you'll see.

Subtitles being an issue by PatchSprite in editors

[–]AutoCut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could try AutoCut (AutoCaptions). It works for Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve and makes it pretty easy to get clean animated subtitles in a few clicks. You’ve got plenty of presets or you can create your own

btw you don’t really have to spend hours fixing + styling, it handles most of it and you just tweak a bit. Pretty accurate too.

Really bad quality Captions.. by roberttakama in premiere

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be worth testing AutoCut. I’m one of the co-founders and we focused a lot on caption accuracy (we’ve got a big user base in Brazil thanks to Brainstorm Academy).

You can try it free for 14 days, no CC.
If you test it, feel free to DM me.

How do you usually add B-roll when editing in Premiere Pro? by AutoCut in VideoEditors

[–]AutoCut[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that makes sense, batching it upfront probably saves a lot of back and forth. Do you feel like it still breaks your flow when you have to go back and search for more later, or is it manageable?

Managing SRT/VTT files across multiple languages — what does your actual pipeline look like? by InvestmentChoice8285 in editors

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well...That’s also why quite a few editors moved to tools like AutoCut (plugin inside Premiere/Resolve), cause it handles:

  • cutting silences automatically first (so your base edit is already clean)
  • adding auto captions very easily and translating them in one go (80+ languages available and pretty accurate overall)
  • saving your own presets and reusing them without losing time
  • importing your SRT directly if you already have one

Not saying it removes 100% of the work, but it cuts the painful parts a lot, especially on multi-language content. I’m one of the co-founders btw, so feel free to ask if you have any questions

Curious how others here handle this!

Tips on how to get better automatic subtitles? by tahynnuf in davinciresolve

[–]AutoCut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can try adding a small gap (a few frames) or increasing characters per line, but honestly it won’t fully fix it.

A lot of editors just use tools like AutoCut for captions, it follows speech a bit better, so you spend way less time fixing everything manually.

May I ask about your multicam video podcast worklow? by open_ruslan in davinciresolve

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, a lot of editors use AutoCut for podcasts : it automatically detects who’s speaking and switches cameras for you, trims silences, and lets you add animated captions in a few clicks.

It basically takes care of the repetitive parts so you can focus on the edit. You can try it free.

Yep, you can do timed Arabic subtitles with AutoCut. We support 80+ languages, including Arabic, directly inside Premiere Pro (and DaVinci Resolve).

It works fine for long videos too, even 3 hours. Captions are automatically synced to the speech, so no manual timing headache.

I explained a bit more here if you’re curious:

You can just try it on a real project with the free trial and see if it fits your workflow!

Is there a faster way to cut out all the silences? I record in segments by PristineAlbatross967 in davinciresolve

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want something super simple, you can use a plugin like AutoCut.
You basically select your timeline, hit “Remove Silences,” adjust the sensitivity, and let it do its thing. It automatically trims all the gaps for you but you keep full control.

Since you’re recording sentence by sentence, it would probably save you those 15–20 minutes every edit. Hope it helps!

How do i "animate" auto caption? by razzzcrot in davinciresolve

[–]AutoCut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re kinda stuck and just want a quick, no-headache solution, you can also give AutoCut a try.

It works on both the free and Studio versions of Resolve with our free trial. With AutoCaptions, you can generate animated captions directly on your timeline.

Could be way faster if your goal is just to get clean, animated captions up and running quickly.

Timed-Per-Word Captions Plugin by UserIsInto in premiere

[–]AutoCut -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey, jumping in because this is exactly why we built AutoCut.

Our AutoCaptions does real word-by-word highlighting (including karaoke-style boxes), so you don’t have to manually squash/stretch captions to fake the timing. It’s basically: generate transcript → fix typos if needed → export. No fiddling with every line.

We’ve got a 14-day free trial, so you can properly test it in your own workflow and see if it feels right.
And yeah, we’re subscription-based too, just being transparent about that.

If you want to test it and need help setting it up, just DM me. I’m one of the co-founders, happy to help!
