What it is
Backstage Cut is a Premiere Pro panel for creator editors cutting YouTube videos, podcasts, Shorts, Reels and TikToks. It transcribes the sequence once, then uses that transcript to drive the repetitive work: captions, punch-in zooms, B-roll placement, silence and filler cuts, and chapter markers. Everything lands as standard Premiere clips and keyframes, so editors can adjust any of it by hand, and the footage stays on their own machine.
What it does
- Word-level transcription in English, Hindi and Hinglish, powered by ElevenLabs and Sarvam AI
- Styled captions with live preview and safe zones for Shorts, Reels and TikTok
- AutoZoom punch-ins timed to speech, written as editable keyframes
- B-roll matched from the editor's own folder and frame-aligned to the transcript
- Silence, filler-word and retake detection
- YouTube chapter markers generated from the transcript
