Editing is deleting a sentence

Strike a line from the transcript and that piece of video is gone. Tap it again to bring it back.

Silences, ums and second attempts, gone

One pass finds them all and keeps your last attempt at each line. You can review the marks and keep whatever you want.

Paste your script and record straight into the project. If you stumble, say the line again and the retake pass cleans it up.

Questions, answered

Primecut is an iPhone app that edits talking-head video by text. It transcribes your footage, then lets you cut the video by cutting words: delete a sentence in the transcript and the matching video disappears. It also removes silences, filler words and repeated takes automatically, adds captions, and exports for TikTok, Reels and YouTube.

Primecut runs on iPhone and requires iOS 18.0 or later. There is no desktop or Android version — the whole edit happens on the phone you shot on.

Every new account gets 30 minutes of AI processing, once. Processing is measured against the length of the video you transcribe, so a 5-minute clip uses about 5 minutes. Free exports are capped at 1080p and carry a small Primecut watermark. Everything else — text editing, retake removal, teleprompter, captions — is available on the free tier.

Pro Annual is $59.99 per year and starts with a 3-day free trial. Pro Monthly is $9.99 per month with no trial. Pro removes the watermark, unlocks 4K export, and includes 25 hours of AI processing per billing period. Prices are target US App Store prices and are subject to change. The App Store shows the exact price before you subscribe. Other regions may use Apple's equivalent price tier or may differ.

Yes. Subscriptions are billed by Apple, so you cancel in iOS Settings → your Apple Account → Subscriptions. You keep Pro until the end of the period you already paid for.

Primecut transcribes with server-grade speech-to-text rather than a lightweight on-device model, so it holds up on fast talkers, accents and slang. You can always fix a word in the transcript; the edit points stay attached to the audio.
