Podcast editing is text editing.
Almost every cut in a conversation is a sentence you wish had not happened. Deleting it from a transcript is the natural interface for that.
Edit the transcript, not the waveform
Delete the ten minutes where the conversation wandered by selecting the words and pressing delete.
Clips that make themselves
Find the good moment in the transcript, cut around it, crop vertical, add captions. Minutes, not an evening.
Audio out as well as video
Export the edited episode as MP3 or WAV for the podcast host, and the video version for YouTube.
Share before you publish
Send a guest their episode as a private link with an expiry date, for approval before it goes out.
From recording to everywhere it goes.
The jobs between finishing a conversation and publishing it.
Episode edits
Trim the pre-roll chat, drop the dead ends, and tighten a rambling ninety minutes into a listenable hour.
Vertical clips
Crop the best two minutes to 9:16 with burned-in captions for Reels, Shorts and TikTok.
YouTube versions
Publish the video cut at 16:9 with captions, from the same project as the audio edit.
Show notes
The transcript is already there. Pull quotes and timestamps out of it instead of scrubbing for them.
Audio-only export
Strip the video and export MP3 or WAV for the podcast host in one step.
Guest promo cuts
Send each guest a short clip of their own best moment, ready to post.
The clips that promote the episode, cut from the episode.
The episode is the easy part. What actually grows a show is the six vertical clips pulled out of it, and that is where most podcasters stall.
- Record
Record the video half of the conversation
Capture the screen share, the guest's camera or the remote call, so there is footage to cut clips from rather than a waveform.
- Find
Find the moment by reading it
Search the transcript for the line you remember, and the footage is already at it. This is the step that usually costs an hour of scrubbing.
- Crop
Crop it to the shape the feed wants
Take the two minutes out and reframe to 9:16 or 1:1, moving the crop so the person talking is actually in it.
- Caption
Burn the captions in and post
Podcast clips are watched muted almost without exception. Captions come from the transcript you already searched, and burning them in is what makes the clip work at all.

Questions from podcasters.
Can I export just the audio?
Yes. Export the edited project as MP3 or WAV, or run any video through the free extract-audio tool.
How accurate is the transcription?
Clear speech typically lands well above 95%, and the transcript is what you edit against.
Can I make vertical clips for social?
Yes. Cut the moment, crop it to 9:16 with the TikTok or Reels preset, and burn in captions before exporting.
Can I remove filler words?
Yes, in one pass over the transcript, and you can delete whole tangents the same way.
Can I send an episode to a guest for approval?
Share a private link, optionally password protected and set to expire, so nothing leaks before release.
