Cuttle Try free for 14 days

Screen recordings
that edit themselves

Record your screen, or Claude Code at work. Cuttle cuts the idle, speeds up the waiting, zooms on what you click and type, and masks your keys before anyone sees them. On your Mac or PC, nothing uploaded.

An example take, played in the page. Switch Cuttle's edits off and on above.

Every cut is an edit you can change

Cuttle's cut is a first draft, not a filter. Each clip, speed, zoom and mask lands on the timeline as an ordinary edit: drag it, trim it, set its speed, redraw it, or switch a whole kind off in the Auto tab. The video you see is exactly what the export renders.

Cuttle's editor with a Claude Code take: the framed terminal above; on the timeline the prompt, 64× Claude at work, the answer, the result and an end card, a typing zoom, an answer zoom and a mask over a private path; the selected clip's speed and timing in the inspector
  1. 1Markers from Claude. Its prompt, its writes and its answer, on the timeline where they happened.
  2. 2Claude at work, sped up. 64× in this take, with a speed badge; you set the speed.
  3. 3A zoom that follows. It glides along each line you type and settles on the answer.
  4. 4A mask. A private path, covered in every frame it shows.
  5. 5All of it editable. Speed, timing, crop and badge for whatever you select.

Made for Claude Code

Show what Claude built without making anyone sit through the build. --until-claude stops the take when Claude has answered, and its prompt, its tool calls and its answer become markers: the prompt stays readable, the work runs at 12×, the answer gets a zoom.

zsh · ~/acme-app
$ cuttle record --mic --until-claude
# stops when Claude Code in this folder has answered
$ cuttle suggest
# idle cut, waiting sped up, zooms on the answer and on clicks
$ cuttle render --format 16:9 --format 9:16

Or just ask

With Cuttle's skill installed, ask Claude Code to record a demo of what you built. It sets up the take, you give your prompt, and Claude cuts it, checks the stills for anything private and renders the MP4.

Any agent, over MCP

cuttle mcp gives Claude Desktop, Cursor or any MCP client Cuttle's commands as tools: projects, motion pages, music, previews, renders. Recording stays with you; no tool records.

claude mcp add cuttle -- cuttle mcp

One plain file

Every edit is written to cuttle.json as you make it, so Claude, the command line and the editor see the same video. With the project open, you watch each change Claude makes.

{ "type": "clip", "label": "Claude at work",
  "from": 17, "to": 221, "speed": 12,
  "badge": "12× speed" }

Secrets masked before you share

Cuttle reads the screen's text on your computer, with macOS's Vision or Windows' own OCR, and masks what should not be in a video: API keys and tokens, email addresses, IBANs, card and phone numbers, every notification that pops up, and the words you add. A mask stays on text that scrolls, as it comes in and as it goes out.

The project keeps a private thing only as a mark, ⟦key-qwhzbtrk⟧, never as it was.

Masks are suggestions to check, not a guarantee. Look at the stills before you share; cuttle preview --masks shows each mask's edges.

Nothing leaves your computer

Recording, the cut, reading the screen, transcription with Whisper and the export all run on your Mac or PC. Nothing is uploaded.

The one exception is yours to choose: a narration in your ElevenLabs voice sends its text to ElevenLabs. The daily update check sends nothing about you or your recordings, and can be turned off.

Then make it look designed

Backgrounds, window frames, cursor styles, keycaps for the shortcuts you press, a webcam bubble you move and reshape after the take, subtitles word by word, and music written for the video. Save it as a brand kit and the next video wears it with one click.

Or write the whole video in code

A video does not need a recording. Every scene can be a web page, kinetic type, a chart that builds, a code editor typing itself, a laptop in 3D, and Cuttle renders it frame by frame on the video's clock. The music is a page too, composed for this video in code. Nothing is licensed or downloaded.

This film was made with Cuttle: nine web pages and a score written in code, no camera. 0:37 · with sound
Four frames of a 9:16 video made only from code: a kinetic title, a code editor typing, a page saying Ship it, and an end card
Four frames of a 16-second 9:16 video that a handful of commands make from Cuttle's templates.

Claude writes these pages

Ask Claude Code for a launch video of your app. It writes the pages and the score, checks them frame by frame, and renders. Open the project in Cuttle and every page it saves plays there at once.

Record, let it cut, post

  1. Record

    Press ⌃⌥⇧R on a Mac or CtrlShiftAltR on Windows, and pick a window, a screen or a region. A small bar keeps the time and your mic's level. It never shows in the video, and neither does the prompter with your script.

    The recording bar: Cuttle's icon, a red dot, 0:04, the mic's level, then retake, slip, marker, pause and stop

  2. Let it cut

    In seconds, on your computer: idle stretches out, the waiting sped up, slips and long pauses gone, zooms where you clicked and typed, secrets masked. Fillers like “um” are cut where the picture rests.

    The prompter: step 2 of 3, Turn on dark mode, Say that it follows the system, then Export the video

  3. Post

    Change what you like, pick 16:9, 1:1 or 9:16, export. Your take stays in the project as it was recorded, so you can always cut it again.

Before you ask

Which computers?
Macs with Apple silicon and Windows PCs (x64). A take records a window, a screen or a region, with your webcam, your mic and the computer's own sound.
What else does it need?
Nothing more on a Mac: ffmpeg, which records and transcribes, comes inside Cuttle. On Windows, Cuttle's first start installs ffmpeg with one click (with Windows' winget).
What does it cost?
The first 14 days are free, with everything. Then a license is €39.99, once, with every update for life. Without one, recording and editing stay free; exporting needs the license. Stripe sells it for us and handles the VAT.
Do I need Claude Code?
No. Cuttle records anything on your screen. With Claude Code you also get takes that stop when Claude has answered, its work as markers, a skill and an MCP server.
Which permissions on a Mac?
Screen & System Audio Recording, and when a take uses them: Microphone, Camera, Input Monitoring for the clicks and keys, Accessibility for zooms that follow your typing. The first start walks you through them in System Settings.
And Linux?
The command line renders videos written in code on Linux, in CI and in Docker. Recording and the app are for macOS and Windows.
