Cut
Trim, slip and roll, split and nest clips on tracks that hold anything. Take out dead air with Remove Silences and Remove Filler Words, or cut by deleting words from the transcript.
Frame Job
A native macOS video editor. Cut it yourself, ask the Assistant, or let any MCP agent drive. Every edit is an ordinary undo step.
Frame Job runs on Apple Silicon Macs with macOS 26 or later. There’s no account to make. Every AI feature runs on your own API key, and everything else works without one.
