Overview
Supercut is a private AI video editing tool that operates entirely within a user's internet browser on their device, without any footage being uploaded to the cloud.
Users input the desired edits in plain text and the AI converts that sentence into a structured operation, which is executed on the local device. It features a suite of more than 40 editing operations such as auto-captioning, reframing with face tracking, color adjustments, audio fine-tuning, and face blurring.
Additionally, it offers a multitrack timeline for more complex edits and there's a desktop application available for macOS and Windows. It also features a screen recorder and local MCP server for added functionality.
Supercut prides itself on privacy, with the only data leaving a user's machine being the request text and basic clip metadata to execute the operations requested.
It's intended to be safe for unreleased work, and maintains functionality even without network connectivity, making offline editing possible. Moreover, it simplifies the process of getting a right video format for different platforms like TikTok, YouTube, and others with preset settings.
The tool was formerly known as CapCutGPT and UnoCut and is developed independently without any affiliation to CapCut or ByteDance.
