Cutfarmer takes a long-form video — a podcast, a stream, a set — and turns it into finished vertical clips: found, framed, captioned, titled, and posted. Here is everything under the hood.
Cutfarmer reads the whole episode — transcript, speakers, shot structure, audience reactions — and finds the moments that stand alone: a complete bit, a story with a payoff, a take that lands. Every clip opens on a hook and ends when the payoff finishes, cut to sentence boundaries, never mid-word.
On-device transcription with word-level timestamps, speaker diarization, and shot detection give the engine a map of who said what, when, and on which camera.
Clips run exactly as long as the moment needs — a 25-second punchline or a three-minute story — with a refinement pass that re-cuts both boundaries for a clean open and a complete ending.
Turning 16:9 into 9:16 means deciding, frame by frame, who matters. Cutfarmer tracks every face, matches voices to the people on screen, and keeps the crop on whoever is actually speaking — through camera cuts, walk-ons, and crowded panels.
Bold, readable captions with word-by-word highlight timing, rendered into the video. Tap any word in the app to fix it; styles are template-driven so every clip matches your brand.
Every clip gets a short headline burned into the top band — written from what actually happens in the clip, positioned to never cover the speaker or the watermark.
Automation does the first pass; you stay in control. The three-phase workspace (Ingest → Edit → Export) gives you a per-clip timeline, framing inspector, caption editor, and a natural-language command bar — tell it "tighten the intro and keep the crowd shot" and it edits.
Cutfarmer posts finished clips to the accounts you connect — TikTok and YouTube natively, with Instagram supported through the same pipeline. You sign in on each platform's own page; Cutfarmer never sees your password, and tokens live in a local file on your Mac.
Everything — transcription, face tracking, rendering — runs locally on Apple Silicon. No cloud upload, no account system, no servers. The only thing that ever leaves your machine is the finished clip you chose to publish.
