What you read is what you hear.
DraftCut is the text-first podcast editor. Upload your recording, edit it like a Word doc, and let the audio follow.
Transcribe — and so much more
More than fast, accurate audio-to-text conversion — DraftCut lets you produce your podcast in the same workflow. Upload your recording, edit it like a Word document, and listen the result instantly.
Edit audio like a Word doc
Text-first. Waveform only when you need it. No cluttered buttons. No complex settings panels. DraftCut is built on a text-first philosophy — stripping podcast production down to its simplest form.
Correct. Cut. Rearrange.
Correct typos or remove filler words while keeping the original audio intact. Or delete text entirely to cut the audio along with it. Rearrange paragraphs — and your audio follows.
Copy & Paste, but for audio
Already said a word or phrase? Right-click to copy it and paste it anywhere else in your podcast. Need to repeat a guest's name or reuse an intro line? No re-recording. No extra takes.
Micro Adjustment
Text-first editing handles the heavy lifting — but sometimes you need to fine-tune at the millisecond level. Pull up a waveform view right inline to trim the exact start or end of any segment.
