Cutback

Cutback is a video editing assistant built for studios, creators, and freelancers who want to move from raw footage to a solid first cut faster. It’s positioned as an assistant workflow for video editing, with features that cover editing tasks, media organization, and parts of the post-production process.

It’s a fit if you already edit in Premiere and you spend time on repeatable steps like trimming, syncing, removing dead air, and preparing captions or alternate language versions.

• Selects that help you start from better clips faster
• Premiere Assistant workflow designed around editing inside Premiere
• Auto-editing for raw footage to create a first pass
• Multi-cam support to handle footage from multiple angles
• Transcription to turn spoken audio into text
• Translation for creating translated output
• Silence removal to tighten pacing without manual passes
• Animations to add motion elements during the edit

What stands out from the description is that Cutback focuses on accelerating the early stages of editing. Instead of only helping with one narrow task, it bundles several time-consuming steps into a single assistant workflow, so you can spend more time on story decisions and less on repetitive cleanup.
