Cutaway 0.2.1

Small fixes:

• The Captions panel no longer says every export makes a captions file. It now points you to Export transcript, or the YouTube package, which includes captions.srt.
• The animation example prompts use a fictional name.
• The docs now cover every feature: cutaway-docs.mintlify.site.

Requires an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 14 or later.

Install

Cutaway 0.2.0: make videos from Claude Code or Codex

Make videos from Claude Code or Codex

Cutaway now includes an MCP server, so the AI tool you already use can make a whole video in Cutaway from a text request: import your footage, read the transcript, cut it, add titles, animations, music and captions, look at frames to check its work, and export. Every change appears live in Cutaway, is saved as a version, and stays editable by hand.

Set it up: open Settings → AI tools and click Connect next to Claude Code or Codex, then start a new session and ask it to make a video with Cutaway. Details and the full tool list: docs/mcp.md.

Also in this release: smoother preview while seeking, and new beginner docs and tutorials.

Requires an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 14 or later.
