Cut around a complete thought

For dialogue, start before the first word and end after the sentence finishes. For B-roll, include a little extra movement for transitions. Preview the saved clip in Cutra, then take it into your editor for captions, cropping, or a finished sequence.

Is Cutra also a YouTube trimmer?

Yes. Cutting and trimming describe the same selection workflow here: choose the beginning and end of the source section you want to save.

Does it add captions or crop for Shorts?

No. Cutra collects source clips. Your video editor handles captions, aspect ratio, effects, and the final export.

Before you save

Use sources you own or have permission to use and follow the source platform’s terms. Private, protected, removed, or restricted videos may be unavailable. Cutra collects source clips; finish captions, cropping, and publishing in your editor.
