A professional desktop application built to automate the most tedious parts of editing short-form vertical content (Shorts, Reels, TikToks). Everything runs 100% locally and offline on your machine. No cloud subscriptions, no API keys, and complete data privacy.
- Offline AI Auto-Captions: Uses OpenAI's Whisper neural network to transcribe audio into mathematically synced typography animations instantly.
- Smart Auto-Cut: Leverages native
FFmpegwaveform analysis to instantly detect and remove dead air and silent pauses from raw footage. - Non-Linear Editing (NLE) Interface: A custom timeline manager to manually extend, trim, or remove clips with frame-perfect precision.
- Hardware-Accelerated Rendering: Mathematically draws and exports the final 9:16 composition as a crisp H.264 MP4.
- CSV Workflow: Import hundreds of custom text layers instantly via CSV.
