01
Agent draft, human finish
One prompt can plan cuts, captions, and voice. You approve and polish instead of building every track by hand.
A VEED Alternative Built for Prompt-to-Timeline
VEED and similar browser editors shine for quick subtitle and template work. StarCut is for creators who want an agent to draft the whole edit, then keep full control on a professional timeline in the browser.
No install. Works in a modern desktop browser.
