SlateCut

Record once.
Cut it like text.

A native macOS screen recorder for demos, courses and walkthroughs. It transcribes every take, removes the silences and zooms into every click — automatically.

Recording

Press record. That’s the setup.

Screen, camera, microphone and system audio all captured in one pass, each on its own track. No scene to build, no sources to wire up — pick a window and go.

Transcript

Edit the words. The video follows.

Every take is transcribed on your Mac the moment it stops — no upload, no account. Delete a sentence and the cut happens: the timeline, the captions and the exported file all agree.

The SlateCut transcript panel, each line stamped with its timecode — **Every word, on device.** Whisper runs locally, so a recording of your unreleased product never leaves your Mac.

The SlateCut silence panel: a minimum-pause control, a toggle that keeps pauses where the screen was in use, and a count of the pauses found — **Silence, reviewed not guessed.** SlateCut finds the pauses and shows you each one on the timeline before a single frame is removed.

The timeline

It zooms where you clicked.

Every source you captured lands on its own lane. SlateCut writes the zooms from your pointer as you record — and every one of them stays editable.
