Raw footage in. Ranked clips out.

This is the free demo of CutBench — a local Windows workbench that turns your gaming sessions into a steady feed of ready-to-post vertical clips, ranked by how likely each one is to blow up. You're going to game anyway — CutBench turns that footage into TikToks, Shorts, and Reels without you ever touching a timeline. Drop a 3-hour Twitch VOD, walk away, come back to 10–15 captioned shorts sorted by virality. Your GPU does the work. Your footage never leaves your PC. Demo clips carry a small watermark — the full version on Steam renders them clean.

The demo is the full tool

Same 10-stage pipeline, same 10–15 ranked clips per session, same virality scores, same 100% local processing. No clip caps, no time limit, no locked features, no expiry. The one thing the demo does differently: it stamps a small CutBench watermark on each clip — on the video and as a tag in the caption. Post them as-is to try it, or buy once on Steam to render clean, watermark-free clips.

Turn gameplay into growth

Post daily without the grind. One session = a week of shorts. Stop choosing between playing and posting.

Ranked by virality. Every clip gets a score and a one-line reason, so you know which 3 to post tonight instead of guessing.

Built to perform on socials. 9:16 cuts, burned-in captions, and ready-made titles and hashtags tuned for TikTok, Shorts, and Reels.

Built for gamers, not marketers. The scoring is tuned on real gaming footage — kills, clutches, banter, boss fights — not TED talks and product launches.

Why try CutBench

Free to try. No account, no subscription, no time limit — clip as much footage as you want.

Local-first. Your raw session — voice, game audio, every embarrassing rage moment — stays on your drive. Nothing uploaded, nothing transcoded by a stranger.

The full pipeline, free. This isn't a stripped trial — it's the real engine. You only upgrade to drop the watermark.

How it works

A 10-stage local pipeline reads your recording end-to-end:

• INGEST — normalise and probe the source

• TRANSCRIBE — on-device speech recognition

• DETECT — find audio events, motion peaks, voice activity, scene changes

• RANK — score every candidate moment for virality

• PERCEIVE — read the on-screen action and HUD

• TRIM — walk outward from each peak to find a real beginning and ending

• RENDER — produce 9:16 (Shorts/Reels/TikTok) and 16:9 (YouTube) cuts

• LOOP — montage and time-compress to fit the format

• PACKAGE — burn captions, build thumbnails

• DESCRIPTIONS — write the title, caption, and hashtags for every clip

When the run finishes, your output folder has finished video files with subtitles, a per-clip score and reason, suggested post copy, and a ranking so you know which 3 to post tonight. (Demo clips include the CutBench watermark.)

It understands what's actually happening

CutBench doesn't just cut on volume spikes. On-device AI reads the real content of your recording — what's happening on screen, who's speaking, which objects and HUD elements are visible, and which sounds are firing (gunshots, footsteps, explosions, environmental cues) — so it lands on moments that are actually worth posting. Everything runs locally on your GPU. Nothing is uploaded.

What you get per session

• 10–15 ranked vertical clips per 3-hour recording (with the demo watermark)

• Both 9:16 (Shorts/Reels/TikTok) and 16:9 (YouTube) renders

• Burned-in captions in multiple styles

• Suggested title, description, and hashtags per clip

• A virality score and a one-line reason for every clip

Want clean clips? Get the full version

The demo watermarks its output — on the video and in the caption — so you can run the whole pipeline before you buy. The full version of CutBench on Steam renders clean, watermark-free clips. One-time purchase, no subscription. Same tool — your mark instead of ours.

Anti-features

No timeline. If you wanted to drag clips around manually you would have opened DaVinci.

No cloud upload. Your footage is yours.

No "AI face filter" or "AI voice change". CutBench finds the moments, it does not fake them.

Watermark on demo clips. The full version on Steam removes it — on the video and in the caption.

Made for

Gamers who want their gameplay to actually pay off on social media — streamers, content creators, and anyone sitting on hours of footage who wants a steady feed of shorts without learning an editor, paying a monthly fee, or shipping their gameplay to a third party.

Local-first guarantees

No telemetry. The app does not call home.

No mandatory account. Free via Steam; runs fully offline after install.

No required internet. After install, you can clip on a plane.

AI content disclosure

CutBench uses on-device, pre-trained AI models for visual scene understanding, audio event detection, and text generation (clip titles, captions, and hashtags). All models are bundled with the app, run on your GPU, and never transmit your input or output off your machine. No third-party AI service is contacted.
