You're the face of your brand. Editing shouldn't be the reason you stop showing up. TakeCut is the video editor built for talking-head creators — coaches, real estate agents, consultants, educators, and anyone building a personal brand on camera. Record your talk-to-camera video, and TakeCut turns it into a polished, ready-to-post clip in minutes. No timeline. No editing software. No editor on payroll. BUILT-IN TELEPROMPTER Read your script straight into the lens with an adjustable, on-screen teleprompter, so you sound prepared instead of rehearsed — and never lose your train of thought mid-take. AI HOOK IDEAS Staring at a blank camera roll? TakeCut suggests scroll-stopping opening lines tailored to your topic, so you start strong instead of rambling into your first 10 seconds. AUTOMATIC EDITING TakeCut finds and removes your dead air, filler words, and false starts automatically. Record like you talk — TakeCut cuts it together like a pro editor would. CAPTIONS THAT ACTUALLY GET WATCHED Auto-generated captions, burned in and styled to match your brand, because most of your audience is watching on mute. Choose from a range of caption styles to match your vibe. TEXT, LOGOS & OVERLAYS Drop in your logo, calls to action, or on-screen text without touching a design app. BATCH YOUR WEEK IN ONE SITTING Film a week's worth of content in one session, then let TakeCut process each take while you move on to the next one. STUDIO-QUALITY EXPORT Export in 480p, 720p, 1080p, or 4K, ready to post straight to Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube Shorts. Built for the people who ARE the content. Stop editing. Start posting.
