Get scenes cut to your voice
ViCut transcribes the recording word by word and splits it into scenes, so each shot changes with the sentence it shows. Paste your transcript if you want the subtitles word-perfect.
Review the shots
Every sentence gets a photo, map or clip with its source and licence. Swap any shot before render.

- Subtitles from your wordsWord timings from the recording place the subtitles and the scene changes.
- Source and licence on every shotWikimedia Commons, Openverse, Pexels, Pixabay and USGS maps. Credits go into the YouTube description.
When another tool fits better
- Talking avatars and lip syncViCut shows footage over your narration; it doesn’t animate a presenter saying your words.
- Music videosA song needs visuals cut to the beat, not shots that illustrate sentences.
For these, a tool built on AI generation is the better pick. Compare AI video tools →

How do I turn a voiceover into a video with AI?
Upload your narration in ViCut’s Voiceover mode. ViCut transcribes it, splits it into scenes, finds a licensed photo, map or clip for each sentence and shows you the storyboard. Swap any shot, then render the MP4 with subtitles and the YouTube pack.
Which audio files can I upload?
MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, FLAC or OGG, from 3 to 35 minutes long.
Which languages are supported?
English, Spanish and German. ViCut detects the language of your recording.
Do I need to upload a transcript?
No. ViCut transcribes the recording itself. If you paste the exact words you spoke, subtitles and scene changes line up more precisely.
Will ViCut change my voice?
No. Your recording is the narration of the video. If you want, you can replace it with an AI voice later in the storyboard.
