The AI podcast editor for video podcasts
Quick answer
MirrorCut is an AI podcast editor for video podcasts. Upload the full episode and ask in plain words: its agent cuts dead air and false starts, cleans up the sound, switches between host and guest cameras, adds captions and pulls out Shorts. It builds an editable cut on a real timeline, and you accept or revert every change.
A video podcast episode needs the same long list of jobs every week: cut the dead air and false starts, clean up the sound, switch between host and guest cameras, add captions, then pull Shorts out for social. Done by hand, that's most of a day per episode.
MirrorCut's agent does that first pass on the whole episode. Upload the recording, say what you want, and it builds an editable cut on a real timeline. Every change it makes is outlined and explained, so you can accept it, revert it or adjust it by hand before you export the full episode and the Shorts.

Just ask for it
Things you can type to MirrorCut's agent:
- “Remove the dead air, filler words and retakes from this recording”
- “Switch cameras to whoever is speaking, with a cut on each speaker change”
- “Add chapter markers and a title for each chapter”
- “Find the five strongest moments and cut each into a Short”
How it works
- 1
Upload the episode
Bring the full recording in MP4, MOV, MKV or WebM, plus separate camera angles if you have them. Large files upload in the background and resume if your connection drops.
- 2
Tell the agent what you want
Ask for the clean-up, camera switching, captions and Shorts in plain words. The agent builds an editable first cut instead of a finished file you can't change.
- 3
Review, then export
Check each change on the timeline, refine through chat or by hand, then export the episode as MP4 up to 4K and the Shorts alongside it.
What MirrorCut does
Clean-up for the whole episode
Dead air, filler words, retakes and false starts are cut across every track in sync, and you can ask for the dialogue, music or sound effects to be turned up or down.
Switches to whoever is speaking
With several camera angles, the agent cuts to the person talking on each speaker change, and reframes each shot around them.
Shorts from the same edit
The strongest moments become vertical Shorts with animated captions, each opening as its own editable timeline.
Captions you can export
Animated captions stay in sync after every cut, and you can download the episode's captions as SRT or VTT.
You approve every change
Each AI edit is outlined on the timeline and explained in one line. Accept it, revert it, or keep editing by hand; your edits and the agent's share one undo history.

Questions
- Does it work with multi-camera podcasts?
- Yes. Upload each camera angle and ask the agent to switch to whoever is speaking; it cuts on each speaker change.
- Can it edit audio-only podcasts?
- You can upload MP3, WAV and M4A audio and use the clean-up and captions. Camera switching and reframing need video.
- Do I still need a separate clipping tool for Shorts?
- No. MirrorCut cuts Shorts from the same edit as the full episode, so captions, framing and fixes carry over.
- What does it cost?
- Every account starts with 7 days of Creator free (a card is required). After that, Creator is $10, Pro is $30, Studio is $60 a month, and every yearly payment adds 50 bonus AI credits.
