Description

Smart Media Cutter is a desktop software application available for Windows and Linux, designed to significantly speed up the editing process for long video and audio content, particularly streams and podcasts. It specializes in fast and accurate lossless cutting, allowing users to trim hours of media in seconds without time-consuming re-encoding, thus preserving the original quality. The tool is built with streamers and podcasters in mind, focusing on efficiency for speech-heavy material.

Leveraging local AI capabilities, Smart Media Cutter offers advanced features directly on the user's computer, ensuring privacy and unlimited usage without third-party reliance. These include transcription-aided editing, where AI-generated transcripts (supporting 99 languages with word-level timestamps) help users quickly find highlights, remove bad takes, or automatically cut silent sections. It also features tools to convert standard videos into 9:16 vertical formats suitable for TikTok and YouTube Shorts, complete with reusable cropping templates, and incorporates an advanced neural network-based speech denoiser to effectively remove background noise from audio tracks.
