What Taalcut does

It reads a reel you saved, sorts your camera roll, keeps the reel as a template, makes the video with you in a chat, and leaves the timeline open for you to change. Each one works below, on a reel from a trip to Vietnam.

Five features, one appFor Reels, Shorts and TikTokOn footage from Vietnam
  1. Read any reel

    Paste a link or drop a file. Taalcut finds the cuts and music beats, and you can fix what it got wrong before it’s used.

    Takes
    Reels, Shorts and TikTok links, or a video file (on Ubuntu, a file for now)
    Finds
    Cuts, music beats, on-screen text and its timing, transitions, speed ramps, pacing

  2. Your camera roll, sorted

    No more scrolling through a thousand clips. Each slot says what it needs, and Taalcut finds it in your footage.
