Just Cut

For UGC creators on iPhone

Film the brand's video. Skip the editing night.

Just Cut cuts the pauses, ums and retakes on the iPhone you filmed on, shows every cut so you can put one back, and saves each file the way the brand asked.

Your video never uploads, so there is no upload to fail.

  • 5 free reels, no card
  • Then $19.99 a month

AI included up to a free allowance, normally enough for 5 reels.

The Just Cut edit screen: shape buttons 9:16, 16:9, 1:1 and 4:5, the timeline at 0:00 of 0:30, a Video 2 line with a plus button, and the main clip below with its cuts marked retake and pause.
Every cut on the timeline. Marked pause, um or retake. Tap one to put it back. A screen from the app in testing, footage blurred.

Why on the phone

What goes wrong when the cut is in the cloud.

A cloud editor uploads every clip before it cuts it. We read the 42 low and mixed App Store reviews of a popular one for UGC. Here is what people ran into.

  • Uploads

    In the reviews17 of the 42 are about uploads that fail or processing that gets stuck. One 7 minute video failed 10 times.

    Just CutNothing to upload. The cut runs on the iPhone you filmed on.

  • Waiting

    In the reviewsOne reviewer waited 20 minutes for processing. Another waited 45 minutes and got nothing.

    Just CutNo server queue. You watch the cuts land on the timeline while it builds.

  • The cut

    In the reviews11 of the 42 say words got cut off or dead air was left in.

    Just CutEvery cut shows on the timeline, marked pause, um or retake. Put any of it back.

  • Shapes

    In the reviewsTwo reviewers ask for wide video. One says brands turn down tall video.

Hooks

One body. Every hook the brand pays for.

A brand brief template asks for three alternate hooks as separate files1. Each hook is a file you deliver, so Just Cut keeps them in one reel and counts them for you.

  • Film them

    The script sits beside the lens. Read Hook A, tap Next, read Hook B, and so on, then the body.

  • From Photos

    Already filmed your hooks? Pick several takes at once and each one goes on the same body.

  • In this take

    Tap it and Just Cut finds lines in what you already said that work as an opening.

  • Ideas to film

    Tap it and Just Cut writes hook ideas from your body's words. Each one goes to the prompter, ready to film.

What the brand gets. Example: a client called Glow

Hook AI tried every serum. This is the one I kept.

Hook BWhat does a serum do in one week?

Hook CDay 14. This is my skin with no makeup.

Glow_Hook03_4x5_v01.mp4

Body, filmed once

The same body plays after every hook.

Fix one word in the body and every hook file is rebuilt. Version 1 is kept.

Just Cut never picks a winning hook. The brand's own ad results decide that.

How it works

From brief to brand files in three steps.

  1. Paste the brief

    Paste it, or share a PDF or a screenshot. Just Cut sets up the client with the brand's rules and writes Hook A, B and C and the body.

    A client page in Just Cut with the button Write the scripts: 3 hooks and a body, a New from brief button, and Brand rules: the brief, must say words, look, shapes, captions, sound and disclosure.
  2. Film, or pick your clips

    Film with the script beside the lens, or pick up to 20 clips from Photos and choose how they become reels.

    The choice screen for 6 clips, 4:12 together in filming order, with the options One reel, A reel from each, Hooks and body, and Split into 2 reels, and the button Make one reel.
  3. Save it for the brand

    Every hook in every shape, captions burned in or a clean file plus SRT, each file named. Save to the client and the reel moves to Sent.

    Home in Just Cut: Ready 5 with an Export all 5 button and Select, five reel covers marked 9:16 and 13 s, and Sent 2 open below with two more covers. Covers blurred.
    Ready and Sent on Home. Covers blurred.

Also in it

The brand's rules, kept for you.

  • Must say words. Missing from the take? The edit shows it as Not said, before the brand does.
  • Captions. Burned in, or a clean file plus SRT, clear of the buttons TikTok and Meta put over the video.
  • B roll on its own line. Drop a clip from Photos on top. Your voice keeps playing under it.
  • Clips with no talking. Unboxings and pours are cut to the action or the beat, not skipped.
  • Up to 20 clips at once. Kept in the order you filmed, then Export all.
  • Claims and disclosure. A warning when a take says something like "cures", and a reminder to disclose the ad. Warnings only, not legal advice.
  • Clean files. 1080 by 1920 at a steady 30 frames a second, HDR off, no watermark. Raw clips off unless the client asks.
  • Planning. Clients, briefs and film days on one board. Film all opens the camera on Hook A.

Questions

Before you try it

Where does my video go?

Your video stays on your iPhone. When you use Just Cut's AI, the words go to it: the words of your take, the brief you paste and what you type. The cut, the captions and the export happen on the phone.

Nothing goes to the AI until you tap Allow the first time you use it, and you can turn it off in Settings. If you ask Just Cut to name effects in Match a reel, a few small still frames are sent too. The details are in the Privacy Policy.

Is there a limit?

Editing on the iPhone: no count. AI writing: about 100 reels a month. After the month's share of the best AI, Just Cut switches to a lighter AI and tells you. Every feature, overlap audio and batch included, is on the one plan.

What do I get for free?

5 reels with every feature on, no card and no account. AI included up to a free allowance, normally enough for 5 reels. A reel that fails does not count. After that it is $19.99 a month or $149.99 a year, billed through your Apple Account.

What files does the brand get?

Each hook in each shape you pick, named for the client, with captions burned in or a clean file plus an SRT caption file. Raw clips stay off unless the client asks. No watermark.

Will it find me brands or get me paid?

No. It is an editor. It gives you back editing hours and keeps each client's files and rules in order. Winning the deal and sending the invoice stay with you.

How do I cancel?

In iPhone Settings: tap your name, then Subscriptions. Apple handles the billing, so there is no account of ours to close. The plan keeps working until the end of the period you paid for.

Which iPhone and which languages?

An iPhone with iOS 26 or later. iPhone only, so there is no Android version. Just Cut listens through Apple's speech on the iPhone, so the languages it hears depend on your iOS version. The cut is tuned best in English, Spanish and Romanian today.

Who makes it?

Levron Films LLC, a commercial and corporate video production company. You need to be 13 or older to use Just Cut.

When can I get it?

It is launching on the App Store. Join the waitlist and we send one email when it is live.

Get paid for the video, not the editing.
