This service seems very similar to another product I saw here months ago on Show HN called SavvyCut ( https://www.savvycut.com/ ). Can you comment on differences?

just tried this based on your comment. it does seem to re-process on every slider change, which I don't love. but definitely gets the job done! i prefer (biased obviously) live updates and also Kapwing lets you do general timeline edits you'd expect as well (text, overlays, add multiple tracks, etc.)

Whoa. For years I've been seeing YouTube videos that seem to just teleport choppily around what I assumed were silences. I always assumed there was a standard tool that everyone used to do this. I can do the equivalent thing to a podcast episode in like 5 seconds in Logic. The notion that people have been doing this by hand is staggering, but kudos to you for finally coming along and filling this niche.

Can I ask what tool / plugin you use to do this in Logic?

1. Highlight the clip and "strip silence" to split it into a bunch of separate clips the leave out the silent bits 2. Highlight those clips and "shift left within selection" (I might not have that command name exactly right) to collapse them against each other
