Why use Cutlia for this
Hesitations, not words
Only sounds like “um”, “uh”, “er” and “hmm” are cut — never real words like “so” or “like”.
The pause goes too
A hesitation is cut with the silence around it, so the sentence runs on smoothly, with a little room kept against your words.
Silences on top
Long pauses and dead air are cut at the same time — at a natural, snappy or fast pace.
Frequently asked questions
Which filler words does it remove?
Hesitation sounds — “um”, “uh”, “er”, “erm”, “hmm”, “ah” and the like — plus the pauses between words. Words that carry meaning, like “so”, “like” or “you know”, stay.
Does it work in other languages?
Yes. Speech recognition hears about 100 languages, and the hesitations it writes down are cut in each — “um” and “uh”, and many languages' own, like German “ähm”, French “euh” or Japanese “えー”. Words that only sound like one stay, like German “er” (he) or Portuguese “um” (a).
What if it cuts something I wanted?
Step through the cuts in the panel or click one on the timeline, and keep that part with one click.
Is my video uploaded to a server?
No. Cutlia processes your video directly in your browser using WebAssembly and your device's hardware. The file never leaves your computer or phone, so it stays completely private.
