FastCut

FastCut is an AI video editing tool built for creators making short-form content for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and similar platforms. It analyzes uploaded footage to identify key moments, speech, and visual quality, then automatically removes silences, long pauses, and repetitive sections while trying to preserve the story's flow. The platform generates animated captions in a range of styles, supports text-based trimming where cuts are made by editing a transcript rather than a timeline, and suggests B-roll, images, and GIFs to fill gaps in a video. Additional features include automatic audio enhancement, background music addition, and one-click templates for common video formats, with exports optimized for specific platforms like TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter. The tool is aimed at social media creators, video editors looking to speed up their workflow, and marketers producing video ads. It runs as a web-based editor with companion iOS and Android apps for lighter editing and project management on the go. Pricing starts with a free plan limited to three videos of up to two minutes with a watermark, and paid tiers from $20 to $40 per month raise the monthly video count, resolution up to 4K, and maximum video length. The site cites unverified performance figures such as "90% faster editing," and does not disclose a company name or founding year.
