AI Video Cut

AI Video Cut's pitch is narrow and honest: get a long video in, get a stack of postable verticals out. The prompt library (Viral Clips, Funny Moments, Sports Highlights, Gaming Highlights, Music Highlights, Product Review, Trailer) covers the formats most creators actually post, and a custom prompt box sits next to it when the presets miss. The two features that matter most for quality control arrived in 2026. The transcript-based editor (launched 29 July 2026) replaces timeline scrubbing with a visual footage map plus text editing — you click key moments, then delete filler words or fix mangled dialogue directly in the transcript and the captions follow. Auto mode (14 July 2026) removes the guesswork when you don't know which output type suits a given recording. Before those, correcting a bad AI cut meant spending a regeneration. Where it holds up well: podcast episodes, webinars, conference recordings, streams, and anything else with talking heads and a lot of runtime. Smart crop with face detection keeps the speaker framed in 9:16 without you hand-keyframing, and 100-language transcription means non-English footage isn't a dead end. Regeneration is the sleeper feature for volume work — one upload, several variants with different prompts and caption styles. Where it doesn't hold up: this is not an editor. There are no multi-track timelines, no overlays, no frame-accurate trims, and no shared project workspaces. There's also no native scheduling or direct publishing, so your workflow ends at the MP4 download. The clip-length control is coarse — 7, 15, or 25 phrases — which suits shorts fine but rules out anything that needs precise timing. Heavy rerollers will also hit the 10 regenerations included on paid tiers; the transcript editor softens that by letting you fix cuts without spending one. The metering deserves attention before you buy. Upload minutes are deducted by video duration, and the site's own FAQ says the counter is shown before you generate clips, so you can see the charge coming. Paid plans refresh their minutes at the start of each billing cycle, but the allowance is expressed per year (1800 on Starter, 3600 on Pro) and the plans are sold billed yearly, with $12 and $18 month-to-month list prices shown alongside. The Free tier's 50 minutes is one-time and does not refresh — treat it as a trial, not a monthly allowance. Watermark, 14-day storage, 30-minute file length, and a 2GB upload cap apply on Free; paid tiers go to 2h/3h and 4GB with 6-month storage. Two items on the roadmap — custom branded video logos and a Telegram bot — are marked Soon on the homepage and are not yet usable. A May 2026 update added BRL pricing and PIX payments for Brazilian creators, which is a meaningful detail if you're billing from Brazil rather than eating exchange-rate spread.
