Native to Resolve
A workspace script and a local companion drive Cutroom on your actual project. There's no round-trip to a foreign app — the edits appear on the timeline you already have open.
Reminiscent Chronicles · Cutroom
AutoCut's motion — inside the NLE it edits second.
Cutroom is AI-assisted video editing that lives inside DaVinci Resolve, not in a separate app you export to and from. Remove silences, write captions, mark chapters, and assemble a rough cut on your real timeline — then hand it to Post-Production for review on the same client's record. macOS-first, with a Premiere fast-follow we've committed to publicly.

Silences · Captions · Chapters
The tedious first pass, done before you sit down
Cutroom listens to your footage and does the mechanical work first: dead air trimmed, filler and repeats flagged, a caption track written, and chapters marked at the natural breaks. You open Resolve to a timeline that already respects the pacing — and start editing, not scrubbing.
- Silence removal that trims dead air and tightens pacing without touching your cuts.
- Captions generated as SRT/VTT, editable on the timeline and exportable for delivery.
- Chapters & markers placed at natural breaks and exported for players and review.
- Repeat & filler removal to cut the "um," the false start, and the second take (Pro).
Rough-cut assembly · Pacing
A first assembly, in your pacing style
Point Cutroom at a bin and it assembles a rough cut on a real Resolve timeline — choose a pacing profile for a punchy social edit, a documentary interview, or an event highlight, and it builds accordingly. It's a starting point you'd actually keep, laid out where you already work, ready to shape by hand.
- Rough-cut assembly onto a native Resolve timeline — not a locked export you can't touch.
- Pacing profiles for social, interview, and highlight edits, so the first pass matches the piece.
- Multicam assist to sync and lay out angles before you cut between them (Studio).
- Relink manifests that keep your media connected across machines and rounds.
Inside Resolve · Local + cloud
In your edit bay, not a browser tab
Cutroom runs through a Resolve workspace script and a small local companion, so the AI operates on your actual project — real clips, real timeline, real markers. Transcription is hybrid: local Whisper by default so nothing has to leave your machine, with a cloud option when you want speed. macOS-first today; Premiere support is a publicly committed fast-follow.

Handoff · Review · API
Hand the timeline to review — same client, one click
When the rough cut is ready, send it straight to Post-Production for frame-accurate review on the same client's record — no export, no upload to a separate product, no re-keying who this is for. Approvals flow back toward the invoice in Studio. On Studio plans, an API opens Cutroom to your own automation.
- Hand the timeline to Post-Production for timecoded notes and sign-off on the same record.
- Approvals loop back toward the contract and invoice the cut belongs to, in Studio.
- Bundled with Post-Production — Pro includes Cutroom Creator, Elite includes Cutroom Pro.
- API access to wire Cutroom into your own pipeline (Studio).
Why Cutroom
Choose your lens
The standalone AI editors are impressive, and if one fits your workflow, use it happily. Here's where Cutroom differs — on purpose. Pick the comparison that matches where you're coming from.
| With Cutroom | Standalone AI editors, as a category | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it edits | Inside DaVinci Resolve — on your real timeline, clips, and markers. | In their own app; you export to it and export the result back out. |
| After the cut | Hand the timeline to Post-Production for review on the same client record. | Render and upload to a separate review tool, re-entering the client. |
| Transcription | Hybrid — local Whisper by default, cloud opt-in; you choose what leaves your machine. | Frequently cloud-only, so all footage is uploaded to transcribe. |
| Fits the suite | Bundles into Post-Production plans; approvals flow back toward the invoice. | A point tool — billing and delivery are someone else's job. |
| Roadmap | macOS-first with a publicly committed Premiere fast-follow. | Varies; NLE coverage and roadmap transparency differ by vendor. |
| With Cutroom | Cutting by hand from a blank timeline | |
|---|---|---|
| The first pass | Silences trimmed, captions written, chapters marked, a rough cut assembled before you sit down. | Hours of scrubbing, listening, and syncing before the creative work starts. |
| Captions | Generated as editable SRT/VTT on the timeline, ready to style and deliver. | Typed by hand or sent to a separate transcription service and re-imported. |
| Where you work | All of it lands in Resolve — nothing to learn, nothing to leave. | Already in Resolve, but doing the mechanical parts manually every time. |
| Consistency | Pacing profiles give every edit the same considered starting point. | Every project restarts from zero and your habits on that day. |
| Cost of the tedium | From $9/mo — less than the editing hours it quietly reclaims each week. | "Free," minus the evenings spent on the un-creative first hour. |

Works with
Cutroom is the edit bay
Cut, then review — one motion. Cutroom edits inside Resolve; the review and delivery handoffs light up when you add the rest.
Cutroom turns footage into a rough cut inside Resolve — silence-trimmed, captioned, chaptered — then sends the timeline downstream on the same client.
Add Post-Production to review the cut — timecoded notes, versioned cuts, per-reviewer approval. Cutroom is bundled into Post-Production Pro and Elite.
Add Studio so approvals flow back toward the contract and the invoice the cut belongs to.
Add Post-Production
Send the rough cut to a review room wired to the same business: timecoded notes, versioned cuts, and approvals that connect back to the invoice. Post-Production Pro includes Cutroom Creator; Elite includes Cutroom Pro.
Explore Post-Production
Add Studio
Tie the edit to the client it's for — contract, invoice, delivery, and finance hub — so a finished cut isn't an orphan file but a step in the business.
