Say it three times.
Umless keeps your best take.

Hit record and just talk. Umless cuts the ums, the dead air and the retakes from your talking-head video, then hands your editor a clean timeline: Premiere, DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut.

Free while in beta. No spam: one email when your invite is ready.

From raw take to clean cut in one pass

Most tools trim silence. Umless also understands when you said the same thing twice and keeps the take that landed.

1

Drop in your raw video

Record the way you naturally talk. Restart sentences, pause and think. Umless is built for messy first takes.

2

Umless finds every cut

Filler words, long pauses, false starts and repeated takes, detected from the transcript and the audio together.

3

Review, then export

Accept or restore any cut, then export an MP4 or a timeline (XML / EDL / FCPXML) to keep editing where you already work.

Open source at the core

The Umless engine is open source, so you can run it on your own machine for free, read exactly what it does, and plug it into your own pipeline or AI agent. The repo goes public soon; join early access to be told the day it ships.

Questions

How is this different from silence removers?

Silence removers only cut quiet parts. Umless also removes filler words and detects repeated takes, so when you restart a sentence it keeps your best version instead of all of them.

Do I lose control of my edit?

No. Every cut can be reviewed and restored, and you can export a timeline to your own editor instead of a flattened video.

Which languages work?

English first. More languages follow based on demand: tell us yours when you sign up.

Is my footage private?

The open-source engine runs entirely on your machine. With Cloud and Done-for-you, your files are only used to produce your edit and are deleted after delivery.
