Selects by Cutback is an AI video editing prep tool designed to handle the time-consuming first pass of long-form video production. It automatically syncs multi-camera footage, identifies speakers, organizes clips by scene and topic, and cuts silences and filler words from transcripts. Users can prompt the tool to build a draft edit based on storyline, pacing, or B-roll preferences before exporting structured project files to Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve. Selects supports a range of content types including interviews, podcasts, scripted content, vlogs, talk shows, and lectures, and is reported to reduce prep time by over 60%.
