What is AutoCut?
AutoCut is a plugin for Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve that handles repeated editing steps within the existing timeline. Its tools cover captions, pauses, multicamera switching, zooms, social clips, B-roll, repeated takes, profanity treatment, and YouTube chapters. The practical benefit is a more developed first pass without moving the project through a separate editing application. An editor can then inspect the cuts and make the creative decisions that depend on context.
Tighten the recording without flattening it
Silence detection and repeated-take tools can remove obvious dead time, while speaker detection helps start a multicamera edit. Review the rhythm afterward: a pause may communicate uncertainty, emphasis, or a natural transition. Automatic zooms and camera switches also need to match the speaker and scene rather than introducing movement simply because a tool can add it.
Prepare the same material for different formats
Captions can be generated, styled, and translated; longer recordings can become shorter clips, and reframing helps adapt a sequence for social formats. B-roll options include AI images and Storyblocks footage. Check spelling, translated meaning, shot relevance, and subject framing in the final aspect ratio, particularly when a landscape recording becomes a narrow vertical video.

Who is AutoCut for?
Useful for editors already working in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve, especially on interviews, podcasts, and talking-head videos where repeatable cleanup can be automated and the remaining work needs a careful editorial pass.
Before you get started
Check the supported editor version and license terms before installation. Review automatic cuts, captions, speaker switches, and media rights; the intended meaning of a recording can change even when individual edits look technically clean.
