editing assistant.

DuranCuts makes motion graphics, music videos, promos and edits from a sentence. Ask for changes in plain words; everything it makes stays editable on a real timeline. For Mac and Windows.

  • Make a music video from these 18 clips
  • Turn this into a 15-second promo
  • Cut it on the beat, tighter in the chorus
  • Make it vertical for Reels
  • Find every shot where she’s singing
  • A 3D logo reveal for the intro
  • A 60-second explainer on how our app works
  • Put the lyrics on the sung words
  • Slower on the drop
  • Warm the grade on their faces
  • Give me three versions
  • Export it as a Premiere project

From one line to a video you can cut.

  1. Say what you want

    One sentence is enough. Add a song, a link, a screen recording or your own footage if you have it.

  2. The agent builds it

    It plans the video, lays the shots on a timeline, cuts them to the music, writes the captions and grades the picture.

  3. Direct it

    Ask for a change in plain words, or take the timeline yourself. Every cut stays editable.

Song in. Music video out.

Drop in a song and a pile of clips. DuranCuts scores every moment, picks the best ones and cuts them on the beat into a music video you can keep editing, with the lyrics landing on the sung words.

“Turn It Up”: 18 stock clips and one song, cut by DuranCuts.

“Turn It Up” was written and generated for this video with ElevenLabs Music. Footage: Mixkit, free license. All credits

One sentence in. A real, editable video out.

Everything you'd ask an editor for.

Each of these is a sentence away. Hover a card to see it work.

Auto-cut to the beat

Any footage, any song. DuranCuts finds the best moments and cuts them on the beat, tighter in the chorus, and every shot stays a clip you can move.

Every cut is a clip you can trim, move or swap.

Lyrics on the word

Give it the words. It times each one to the vocal and sets them in motion, in many languages.

Change any word, its timing, font or color.

Plain words, then knobs

Ask for a change and a fast model makes it. Every value it touched comes back as a slider you can drag.

Drag a knob, or undo the whole turn.

Three versions

Ask for three takes of the same edit and keep the one you like.

Keep one take and go on editing it.

Every format

16:9, 9:16 and 1:1 from one edit, each framed on the subject.

Each format is a version you can keep editing.

Review links

Your client comments on the moment. Each comment comes back as a change, one click to apply.

An applied comment is an ordinary edit you can undo.

On your phone

Watch the latest cut, ask for a change and approve comments from the DuranCuts phone app.

Changes you ask for land on the same timeline.

Cloud GPUs Coming soon

When a job is too big for your computer, rent a data-center GPU by the second. See the prices

Rendered shots come back as ordinary clips.

Everything it makes, you can edit.

Every shot, title, caption, cut, sound and 3D scene the agent makes is a normal clip on a real timeline. Nothing is a flattened render you're stuck with.

  • Trim, move or retime any clip by hand, on a real timeline
  • Change any text its words, color and font
  • Fine-tune with knobs every value a change touched becomes a slider
  • Ask in plain words and a fast model makes the change
  • Undo any turn the project goes back as it was
  • Take the whole edit to Premiere, Final Cut, DaVinci Resolve or CapCut

Lyric Video puts every word on time.

Drop in a song and its lyrics. Lyric Video splits the vocal on your computer, times every word to the singing and finds the verses and choruses. Then you pick the look.

13 lyric styles. One timing.

Every style reads the same word times, so a new look never breaks the sync. Seven of them, rendered by Lyric Video from the chorus above:

Also bouncing ball, typewriter, chorus takeover, call and response, minimal subtitle and tilted stack.

A title card at each part, then subtitles with the sung word underlined, over speed lines and petals.

Photo mode

Only have artist photos? Lyric Video turns them into a video cut to the beat.

  • Cut on the beatevery photo used, on bars and beats
  • Faces framednever cut, never under the words
  • Cutoutsthe artist lifted out for chorus graphics
Photo one: a woman in a blue paisley scarf in the desert. Photo two: a black and white portrait of a woman with glitter on her cheek.

Lyrics in any language the singing is heard in, timed the same way. Japanese and Chinese a character at a time, Arabic and Hebrew right to left.

Motion graphics, explained in a sentence.

Explainers, product promos, title sequences. The agent designs the shots, animates them and scores them, and every layer stays editable.

“How a machine learning model works”, a 62-second explainer.
Shotcraft turns your app or site into a promo.

3D, with Blender

Ask for a 3D shot and DuranCuts builds the scene in Blender, renders it on your computer and drops it on the timeline.

A real timeline, not a black box.

Everything the agent makes lands as clips you can move, trim and mix. Shuttle with J, K and L, ride levels in the mixer, let the music duck under the voice.

The DuranCuts editor: a viewer above a timeline with a title clip on track V1, edit tools, a mixer button and audio meters.
Rendered by DuranCuts with Blender on a Mac: EEVEE, 1280×720, 4 s.

Blender logoWorks with Blender

3D, rendered in Blender. Edited like any clip.

Ask for a 3D logo reveal, a product turntable, a phone mockup with your screen on it, or a looping 3D background. DuranCuts writes the scene for Blender and renders it on your computer.

  1. Before a long render, it draws a few sample frames and tells you how long the whole shot will take.
  2. The shot lands on your timeline as an ordinary clip, transparent when it goes over footage.
  3. The scene stays in your project. Ask for a change and it renders again.

Blender is free. On a Mac with Apple silicon, DuranCuts offers to download it the first time (346 MB), only after you say yes; on Windows it uses the Blender you have installed. Rendering 3D on a rented GPU is coming soon.

Blender is a registered trademark of the Blender Foundation. DuranCuts is independent and not affiliated with it.

Every format, framed on the subject.

One edit becomes 16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for Reels, Shorts and TikTok, and 1:1 for the feed. The new frame follows the person, not the middle of the picture.

The same shot of a singer framed three ways: 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1, each following her face.

Leave with a file, or the whole edit.

Export H.264, HEVC or ProRes, video with alpha, or a GIF. Or hand the timeline to Premiere, Final Cut, DaVinci Resolve or CapCut as an editing project and keep cutting there.

The DuranCuts Export screen on Video file: codec choices H.264, HEVC, ProRes 422 HQ, ProRes 4444, HEVC with alpha, WebM VP9 and PNG sequence, above frame shapes from 16:9 to 2.39:1.

Export to your favorite editor. Keep going there.

Start in DuranCuts, finish wherever you like. Send the whole edit, every cut, title, caption and track, to Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or CapCut as a real project, with your media linked or copied beside it.

A data-center GPU for cents a minute.

Your computer doesn't have to be fast. When a render, a 3D scene or a big job would tie it up for an hour, send it to a rented GPU in the cloud and keep working.

  • Billed by the second, from 1.1¢ a minute.
  • You see the price before it starts, with a cap it never goes over.
  • It stops itself the moment the job is done.

For 3D renders, 4K upscaling, super slow motion, object masks, original music, AI B-roll and dubbing.

Questions.

When can I get it?

The app is free to download. You can run it with an agent login or an API key you already have. Credits for the DuranCuts cloud are coming, and there is no public pricing for them yet.

Does it run on Mac and Windows?

Yes. There's a Mac version for Apple silicon and a Windows version. Requirements for each are on the download page.

Is it only for one kind of video?

No. People make music videos, lyric videos, product promos, explainers, YouTube videos and social cuts with it. If you can describe it, you can start it.

Do I need my own AI account?
