Cut silences and filler sounds automatically.

Instead of hunting for every gap in a long talking-head recording, hand it to the Cut section. Sylba finds the silent parts and filler sounds and shows them to you; the decision stays yours.

What does Cut do?

Finds silences

Gaps between speech are scanned across the clip and listed.

Finds filler sounds

Filler sounds such as “um” are marked too.

You choose from the transcript

Decide what goes by working on the transcribed speech.

Never cuts without approval

Findings are shown first; the timeline is not touched until you confirm.
