Wisecut Reviews

I MODIFIED THIS REVIEW based on the response below. It's now 4 stars instead of 1 star. I didn't realize the STUDIO EFFECT was the problem. It's good to know that I can turn it off and preserve the original audio. I'm also happy to hear that Wisecut is working on making the subtitle position adjustable. This is a necessity. If they can prioritize it, it will make the product so much better.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:

I couldn't find a way to reposition the subtitles. Is this even possible? If not, it won't work for me because the subtitles cover my face when it punches in. Unfortunately, it seems that Wisecut AI currently lacks the ability to move or reposition auto-generated subtitles to a specific location on the screen. The subtitles are burned-in at a fixed default location.

I also had some issues with the audio quality.

If they fix the problems, I'd love to keep the product and change this review. But unless they can fix it, I'll have to return my AppSumo purchase.

I really like the app and I think it has great potential and a bright future. I hope you keep improving it and release a mobile version, as that would be very useful. I also hope you don’t forget about the AppSumo users when you achieve great success—success is exactly what I wish for you.

It would also be amazing if you added artificial intelligence features so we could interact with the app using voice commands and have the AI carry them out. I hope you launch that soon.

I'm using this to take longer videos (90) and turns them into clips with cc.

Wisecut is easy to get going on, and I think does a mostly great job of taking that video and selecting the best clips BUT it is still AI. I like that if a word needs to be edited out (like "ums" ) it is incredible easy to do that (whether through the AI or manually) and for the most part the corresponding video cut is acceptable.

What I am struggling with is that the AI titles and tags on my shorter videos are close but not correct and I can't edit them nor can I delete the ones that are redundant or unwanted; this is in part because I'd like to be able to merge some of the clips. I think I'll have to set up a spreadsheet to track which clips I'm using to merge so I''m finding it difficult to track and keep a sensible work flow with.

It's also incredible slow when I make edits to the clips and I end up refreshing to make sure it's actually taken, but having said all that I do think there is good value here, and all in all it does make my editing easier.

I bought the extra minutes as well in the LTD and am grateful I did because I can see myself using this regularly despite the aformentioned issues. I can see how it would be really limiting if I didn't get the add on.

note: I did reach out to Customer Support two days ago to see if these issues (not being able to edit tags & titles and delete unwanted clips) are features that are coming or if there's a glitch; I have not heard back yet. UPDATE on June 12th: Customer Service did respond - these features are not currently available but the request has been passed on.

I originally bought Wisecut on AppSumo back in 2021, and I’m still using it today.
At the time, I was working with clients through a marketing agency, and Wisecut became part of my workflow for editing client videos, especially testimonials, interviews, and long-form content that needed to be turned into shorter clips for social media.
What I like most is that Wisecut helps me save a lot of time on repetitive editing tasks. For client work, that makes a big difference. A video testimonial or interview can quickly become multiple short clips that are easier to post and reuse across social media.
I’ve seen the product improve over the years, and I’m happy that the team keeps improving it.
Since I use it professionally and get real value from it, I recently decided to buy another license. That probably says more than anything else.
For anyone creating videos for themselves or for clients, Wisecut is definitely worth trying. It has been one of the AppSumo tools I actually kept using long after buying it.

I create videos regularly and first found Wisecut while searching on Google for an easier way to turn long videos into short clips.

Before trying it, I looked into the company and was impressed to see that Wisecut has been around for several years and has a real track record in the video editing space. That gave me more confidence to test it.

After using it, I was honestly surprised by how good the results were. I've tried other tools that promise similar things, but the final clips often felt rough or needed too much manual editing. Wisecut gave me much better results and saved me a lot of time.

I'm very happy with the purchase and still can't believe there is a lifetime deal available for a tool this useful. I can definitely see myself using it a lot.
