Auto Zoom hits the mobile app
The AI scans your transcript for emphasis moments and punches in 1.4× at exactly the right beat — live in the preview, baked into the export. Same engine as the web editor, now in your pocket.

What shipped, newest first.
Jun 2026Feature
Multi-take mode — film it five times, post the best one
Upload every take of the same video. TikCut analyzes each one, lets you cherry-pick segments across takes on a master timeline, and stitches a single clean export.
May 2026Release
TikCut is now a PWA — install it on your home screen
Install straight from your browser on iOS and Android. Core assets are cached for offline access, so you can load a project and scrub the timeline even without a connection.
May 2026Product Update
Silence removal now works on Safari and Firefox
An AudioContext fallback handles cross-browser waveform analysis without WASM downloads. The 'unsupported browser' gate is gone — every modern browser cuts now.
May 2026Feature
Script Polish — filler words don't survive the cut
An LLM scans your transcript for stutters, trailing fillers ('um', 'like', 'you know'), and sentences that restart mid-thought. It surfaces every cut point so you approve them in one tap.
May 2026Behind the Scenes
How we export video in the browser without a server
WebCodecs for frame-accurate decoding, FFmpeg.wasm for muxing, all inside a Web Worker. Your video never leaves your device — silence removal and trimming happen entirely client-side.

⚡ Origin story
TikCut started with one observation — TikTok Shop affiliates were spending hours editing videos that should take minutes. So we built the thing. Idea to beta in under a week, no waiting, no overthinking.
"We don't move slow to protect our ego. We move fast to earn your trust. Every feature you see exists because someone actually asked for it."

👥 You asked, we built
A community member flagged that the mobile editing experience felt clunky. We heard it, fixed it, and shipped it — trimming, splitting, and reviewing cuts now feels right on your phone.
✕ Before
Clunky mobile UI, hard to trim on a small screen
✓ After
Touch-first timeline, one-tap trim, full-screen preview
📱 Pro tip
Add TikCut to your home screen — no app store needed
Open tikcut.app in Safari, tap Share, then "Add to Home Screen." Launches full-screen like a native app on iPhone and Android. Most people sleep on this.
This is just the beginning. Beta is still free — and beta members lock 50% off for life when pricing goes live.
