Cutback

Cutback is an AI-powered video editing assistant for individual editors, creators, YouTubers, and producers who want faster footage prep and repeatable editing workflows across popular NLEs.

Key capabilities include:

• Selects (desktop app) for ingesting raw footage, transcribing audio, detecting speakers, removing silences, organizing clips by topic, syncing multi-cam, and exporting structured timelines to Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve (with nested sequences, color coding, and markers).
• Auto rough cuts to find highlights, select best takes, and cut based on a script, plus text-based trimming and automatic chapter detection.
• Premiere Assistant (Adobe Premiere Pro plugin) to automate in-timeline tasks such as caption generation, silence removal, zoom effects, B-roll search, photo editing, content summarization, and adding copyright-free media (photos, videos, stickers, GIFs).

Pricing: Freemium; Premiere Assistant paid plans include Lite ($8–$9/month), Basic ($13–$15/month), and Pro ($30–$35/month).

Notable for combining a standalone footage-prep tool with an in-NLE plugin workflow, including exports tailored for Premiere, Final Cut, and Resolve, plus an Official Adobe Video Partner listing.
