Professional subtitling, finally native on Mac.
Real-time validation. Waveform spotting. AI review. One-click compliance with Netflix, ATAA, and EBU standards. No emulation. No compromise.
Power under the hood
Power under the hood
Every feature is designed around real subtitle workflows. Not a text editor bolted onto a video player — a precision instrument built from the ground up.
- Instant AutofitNo button to press — deselect a block and it adapts instantly. Duration, reading speed, pyramidal balance, and ATAA rules are enforced in real time. Blocks push each other to make room. When text is too long, let AI suggest how to condense it to fit your compliance constraints.
- The Timeline You've Been Waiting ForDraw blocks on the waveform, select multiple at once, drag, resize, merge, split, or swap. Magnetic snap locks blocks to scene cuts, and safety zones enforce Netflix post-cut rules visually. Navigate with a minimap that includes a magnifying loupe for precision.
- Real-Time ValidationEvery subtitle is checked as you type — character count, reading speed, gaps, line balance, scene cuts. Errors glow yellow or red and are navigable across the entire project.
- AI AdvisorPer-subtitle suggestions with side-by-side comparison and one-click accept. Full-project AI review categorized by style, spelling, grammar, and punctuation — like a senior proofreader at your side.
- Auto-Correction EngineBeyond AI — a rule-based engine handles cedillas, French guillemets, typographic ellipsis, capitalization, dialogue dashes, semantic breaks, and pyramidal line balance automatically.
- QC Reports & NotesGenerate industry-standard quality control reports. Attach notes to individual subtitles, track issues, and deliver the documentation your clients and distributors expect.
A timeline that changes everything
A timeline that changes everything
This is where Scene Cut leaves the competition behind. A fluid, GPU-accelerated timeline at 60fps — draw, select, drag, and resize blocks directly on the waveform with the responsiveness of a native macOS app. Compare multiple audio sources, loop ranges, and navigate hours of content with the minimap.
- Multi-source audioAdd dialogue stems and alternate audio tracks. Compare sync between sources to ensure your timing base is correct before you start.
- Scene cut protectionAutomatic cut detection with EDL import. Subtitles never cross a scene change — Netflix-compliant by design.
- Prompter & Cinema modesPrompter mode scrolls subtitles in sync with playback for fast proofreading. Cinema mode renders them full-screen exactly as the audience will see them.
AI that advises, never replaces

- Side-by-side suggestionsFor each subtitle, see the original and the AI proposal with character counts. One click to accept, reject, or ask for a new version.
- Compliance badgeEvery suggestion is checked against your active norm (ATAA, Netflix, EBU). A green badge confirms the proposal is compliant before you accept it.
- Full-project AI auditRun a global review categorized by style, spelling, grammar, and punctuation — like a senior proofreader scanning your entire project.

What subtitlers are saying
What subtitlers are saying
Scene Cut was born from years of real-world subtitle production experience. Here's what professionals think after switching.
"I used to spend 20 minutes per project just fixing line balance and compliance issues. With Autofit and real-time validation, that's gone. I just write and Scene Cut handles the rest."
Sophie M.
Freelance Subtitler — Cinema & VOD
"The timeline is what sold me. Drawing blocks on the waveform, snapping to cuts — it's how subtitle editing should have always worked. Going back to EZTitles feels painful now."
Antoine R.
Post-Production Supervisor
"Having AI suggestions checked against ATAA norms before I accept them is a game changer. It's not replacing my work — it's catching the things I miss at 2am before a deadline."
