No timeline scrubbing.

How it works
01

Drop in every angle

Add each camera and the audio: MP4s, MOVs, separate mics. Whatever your setup records, hand it over.

It hears who's talking

SwitchCut reads the audio, works out who's speaking, and cuts to their camera on the beat. Crosstalk goes to the wide.

From the founder
№ 01

I've spent too many Sundays dragging a playhead across four camera angles to find who was talking. So I built the editor I wanted: you hand it the footage, it makes the cut, and you still own the timeline. That's the whole thing.

The quick answers.

FAQ
What does SwitchCut actually do?
It takes your multicam podcast footage and makes the rough cut for you. It detects who is talking, cuts to that person's camera, drops in a few wide shots on real moments, and hands you a native CapCut project you open and finish like normal.
Does it touch my original files?
No. The project references your original camera files; nothing is copied, re-encoded, or re-rendered, so there is no quality loss and nothing to wait on. Everything runs on your Mac, and your footage never uploads anywhere.
Is the result still editable?
Fully. Every clip is a draggable segment and every angle is still there. Move a cut, hold a shot longer, swap an angle, add captions and music. You just skipped the boring first pass.
What if I did not record clean audio?
Separate mics per person give the sharpest cut. If all you have is the cameras, one wireless mic, or audio baked into the video, Run-and-Gun mode works out who is talking from what you do have. It is the newest part of SwitchCut, so early access feedback shapes it.
What does it run on, and how much?
It is a Mac desktop tool. The plan is a one-time price around $50, not a subscription. SwitchCut is in early access, so join the waitlist and we will email you when your spot opens.
