Step 3. Cutback’s AI Assistant will detect speech patterns and remove interjections or filler sounds, such as “uh,” “um,” or “like” that appear in between natural speech, then generate a draft after automatic removal.

Step 4. Review the draft and click [Save] to apply changes to the original video. You can then continue refining the edit using text-based editing or caption editing.

Note:
If you click [Discard], the video will revert to its original unedited state.

Step 5. Click [Apply to sequence] to finalize the changes in your Premiere Pro sequence.

  • Create new sequence: Saves the changes in a new sequence while keeping the original untouched.

  • Apply to current sequence: Updates the existing sequence with the changes.

Note:
Segments marked for deletion by AI will appear in gray. These edits will not be applied until you click [Apply to sequence].

Any changes not applied to the sequence will not be saved. Make sure to click [Apply to sequence] to preserve your edits.
