For new creators and small teams
Finish the video you started
Plan it as a Storyboard, keep the good takes while you film, and get a rough cut without learning a pro editor first.
No credit card. Your footage stays on your computer.
Made for how you make videos
Editing shouldn't take longer than filming
Hours of footage, and no idea where the good take is
Say “keep that” while you film. The take is marked and waiting on its story panel.
A blank editor timeline is intimidating
Your Storyboard becomes the timeline. Your takes land in order, ready to watch.
Videos stall half-finished
StoryCut shows what's left to film and place, so you always know the next step.

Questions
Do I still need a video editor?
Yes, for the polish: color, sound, motion graphics. StoryCut gets you to a rough cut whose story works, then opens it in Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Premiere Pro with every take in place. DaVinci Resolve is free.
Is it hard to learn?
Start from a sample project and change it into yours. StoryCut runs in your browser, so there's nothing to install.
Is my footage uploaded?
Never. StoryCut stores your project, not your video. The files stay on your computer, and you point StoryCut at them when you review and export.
What does it cost?
StoryCut is free to start, with unlimited projects and export to your editor. No credit card needed.
Does the AI make my video for me?
No. Transcription runs on your device today. Coming soon, you'll be able to ask the AI for changes, suggestions or Shorts, and you approve and edit everything it does.
