FAQ

Editing weddings with AI — no smoke and mirrors.

Straight answers, videographer to videographer. If your question is not here, write to us: hola@wedcut-ai.com.

Is there an AI that really edits wedding videos?+

Yes. WedCut analyses the footage of a whole wedding (scene, moment, emotion, technical quality and time of recording), picks the shots worth keeping and builds a first cut edited to the song you choose. It does not generate artificial images: it works with YOUR real footage and hands it back editable in your editing software.

Does it work for any kind of wedding?+

Yes. WedCut does not read traditions, it reads moments: getting ready, ceremony, cocktail hour or reception, party. It organises the footage by the real chronology of the day, so it works the same for a civil ceremony, a religious one or a destination wedding.

How much time does it save compared with editing by hand?+

Sorting through a 500-clip wedding and building the first cut goes from a full working day to less than an hour of your attention: the analysis runs on its own (one to two hours of machine time, with you elsewhere) and the first cut is generated in a minute. Regenerating with another song or another style costs cents and seconds.

Do I get a finished video or an editable project?+

Editable, which is what a professional needs: it exports FCPXML and EDL with the first cut laid out on your Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Adobe Premiere timeline. It can also bring in ALL your takes organised into folders by scene (ceremony, party, couple, drone…) and already tagged, so you can swap or add shots without leaving your editor. It can export a straight MP4 too if you want to share quickly.

Is my clients' footage uploaded to the cloud?+

No. WedCut is a local application for Mac and Windows: your couples' footage never leaves your computer. Only the analysis travels (measured and visible), never the video files.

What do I need to use it?+

A Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or later), an Intel Mac, or a Windows 10/11 PC. Nothing else: no special graphics card and nothing to upload to servers.

What language is the app in?+

In English and Spanish. The whole flow — importing, analysing, reviewing the clip pool, generating and exporting — is available in English.

How does it cut to the beat of the music?+

You choose the song before generating (with your own licence). WedCut detects the BPM and the structure of the track and lands the cuts on the beat and on the emotional peaks of the footage. Change the song and you regenerate in seconds, re-cut to the new one.

Does it find the important moments: the kiss, the vows, the first dance?+

Yes — that is its speciality. It recognises the milestones of the day (entrance, vows, rings, kiss, toast, first dance, exit) and scores the emotion of every shot. It also transcribes vows, readings and speeches line by line: you can search for a moment by what was SAID, and on export each line is placed over the exact clip in your editor.

Does it work with multi-camera footage?+

Yes: it syncs the clocks of your cameras and orders all the footage by the real time of recording, so every take falls in its moment of the day even if it comes from different cards and cameras.

Does AI replace the video editor?+

No, and it does not try to. WedCut does the heavy lifting — sifting thousands of clips, ordering them, assembling the first cut — and you bring the judgement: you review the pool clip by clip, mark green or red, ask for replacements, and finish colour, rhythm and your signature in your editor. What the AI produces is a first cut to argue about, not a final piece.

How much does it cost to edit a wedding with WedCut?+

You pay per wedding based on its footage: size S, M or L — the app tells you the size and price before you start. The analysis is paid once and generating edits on top is included. The PRO membership halves the whole rate. Prices are published on the Pricing page.

Which countries is it available in?+

All of them. Because it is a local application, it works anywhere in the world, in English or Spanish from the first click. Available now in any country.

Is it a plugin for DaVinci Resolve, Premiere or Final Cut?+

No. WedCut is a separate application that runs on your machine and works through your footage before you open your editor. When it finishes it exports FCPXML and EDL: you open that file in Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Premiere and the first cut appears on your timeline, with your original clips linked. It installs nothing inside your editor and does not change how you work in it.

How much footage do I need for a 20-minute film?+

The rule, measured on real weddings: each moment that makes the cut runs about 5 seconds. With 90 clips analysed the ceiling is around 7 minutes; with 250, about 20; with 500, about 38; with 1,300 there is more than enough for 45. Ask for more length than the footage supports and the edit stretches and gets worse — which is why it pays to analyse the whole wedding rather than a sample.

Can I teach it my own editing style?+

Yes. Beyond the reference styles, you can train it on your own delivered edits: it learns how you cut — shot length, pacing, which moments you let breathe — and applies that judgement to the new wedding. You can also ask for a random style to explore versions you would not have thought of.

What if I do not like the selection it makes?+

You change it, and that screen is where you are in charge. In the pool you see every clip that passed the filter and every one that was discarded: you rescue the discards you want, throw out what does not work and ask for replacements. When the pool suits you, you generate. And regenerating is free: you can redo it as many times as you like without paying for the analysis again.

How do I make a wedding teaser with AI?+

You import the wedding's raw clips, WedCut analyses them once and you choose the teaser: about a minute with the day's peaks —the vows, the rings, the kiss, the tears— cut to the beat of the song you pick. It opens already assembled in Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Premiere for your final touch. If it doesn't convince you, regenerate it for free with another song or style.

Can AI put together the wedding highlight film?+

Yes. The highlight film, 3 to 5 minutes, is the one you deliver to the couple: WedCut orders the day's acts (getting ready, ceremony, cocktail hour, party) and picks the best moments of each. You can cut it classic, following the story, or in shaker mode, which cuts by rhythm and energy. It comes out as an editable project, not a closed video.

Does it work for the full-length or documentary wedding film?+

Yes. The long film runs 15 to 45 minutes and keeps the real order of the day: WedCut rebuilds each clip's recording time, syncs several cameras and assembles the film chronologically, with vows, readings and speeches cut by phrase. Length depends on the footage: each moment lasts about 5 seconds, so 250 clips give about 20 minutes.

How do I pull the best moments of a wedding from hundreds of clips?+

That is exactly what the selection pass does. WedCut looks at every clip —scene, moment, emotion, technical quality and time— and keeps what counts on top: the kiss, the rings, the tears, the laughter, the first dance, the guests' reactions. It sets aside shaky, out-of-focus or empty shots. Everything stays in the pool, where you rescue or discard whatever you want before cutting.

Can I get a vertical reel for Instagram or TikTok?+

Yes. From the edit, WedCut makes a 9:16 vertical of about 20 seconds with the best of the wedding, and also exports 4:5, 9:16 or 1:1 keeping your colour and audio. It all happens on your computer, without uploading the footage anywhere.

What is the best AI tool for wedding video editors?+

It depends on what you need. If you want a finished video from templates, general apps do that. If you are a professional editor who wants to skip the culling and the first cut without giving up your judgement, WedCut is built for that: it analyses the whole wedding, prepares teaser, highlight and long film, and leaves them editable in Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Premiere.

How do I edit wedding vows and speeches with AI?+

WedCut transcribes vows, readings and speeches phrase by phrase. You can search for a moment by what was said and the cut lands on the exact phrase, without listening to every clip in full. In the long film, the ceremony and the speeches are assembled in order, with the image on the phrase.

How long does a wedding teaser take to be ready?+

The analysis of a wedding of about 500 clips runs on its own in one or two hours of machine time, and is paid once. After that, each edit —teaser, highlight or long film— is generated in a few minutes, and regenerating is free: you can try several songs or styles in the same afternoon.
